zkPass Addresses $ZKP Launch Turbulence as Project Shifts Focus to Long-Term Market Impact

blockchain main

zkPass has published a recap to the community regarding the difficulties it faced during the release of its token, the $ZKP, which include issues related to congestion, community frustration, and initial market volatility.

The team has recognized problems associated with the airdrop process and eligibility issues, as well as short-term price movement and so much more on transparency and the long-term view of growth. In a shaky crypto market space, token launches are increasingly coming under scrutiny.

zkPass Airdrop Execution

A massive influx of activity relating to the airdrop routing contract was one of the largest problems in the process of the launch of the $ZKP.

ZkPass reported completing over 150,000 transactions within a few hours. This surge opened the floodgates to Ethereum, resulting in some users delaying or failing to claim their allocations.

The idea behind it was to ease the claiming process and not to compel users with limited allocations to pay gas charges.

Although it was well meant, this was not executed as intended, and zkPass acknowledged that the process has caused friction with those who were impacted by the slowdown.

This event demonstrates to the broader market that even well-planned launches can potentially overwhelm the common blockchain infrastructure. It also supports the necessity of scaling methods of distribution with token airdrops of a greater size constantly increasing.

Community Expectations and Allocation Pressure

zkPass also settled on dissatisfaction with airdrop eligibility and the size of the airdrop.

The team said that according to the market conditions, it is incredibly challenging to issue tokens to more than 150,000 addresses in order to feel prioritized by everyone. Since the community of the project has developed naturally, reviews became intense and emotional.

ZkPass has positioned Airdrop as the beginning of a larger adventure rather than as a $10 bonus. The team indicated that future bonuses would strive to appreciate meaningful contributions in the long run.

To the rest of the crypto industry, the move indicates the change in the manner in which projects can distribute tokens. Markets are increasingly rewarding lasting participation and actual use instead of one-time occurrences.

Market Volatility and Transparency Claims

The initial trading of $ZKP experienced fluctuations in the prices, which the team agreed could impact actual users.

zkPass said they haven’t sold any tokens because they can’t control short-term price changes. Any involvement with the allocation and transfer is on-chain and publicly verifiable. According to the project, Binance was able to see on-chain activity at the time of the launch and remained highly in touch.

The team emphasized that the early prices are usually motivated by inadequate liquidity and price discovery rather than the long-term value. Wider economic cycles and market sentiment also contribute to this phenomenon.

This is a message that is consistent with a trend in the direction of being transparent in the process of token launches as investors seek verifiable information more than promises or stories.

Future Outlook

In the future, ZkPass will reveal its plans for what to focus on in the second stage.

The project is expected to increase the extension of access to more exchanges worldwide to enhance ZKP’s liquidity and participation. It also intends to promote a broader use of zkTLS, its backbone technology that allows verifiable information in their daily web sources.

The team also focused on the translation of the technical capability into a real-world utility in which data, such as travel history, online activity, or platform records, can be made available as portable and reliable.

This emphasis on practical implementation rather than hype may be more significant for the market. With the increased scrutiny of token launches, the projects that demonstrate improved use and continued provision have higher chances of gaining confidence in the long run.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

Let insiders trade – Blockworks

Let insiders trade – Blockworks

The post Let insiders trade – Blockworks appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from The Breakdown newsletter. To read more editions, subscribe ​​“The most valuable commodity I know of is information.” — Gordon Gekko, Wall Street Ten months ago, FBI agents raided Shayne Coplan’s Manhattan apartment, ostensibly in search of evidence that the prediction market he founded, Polymarket, had illegally allowed US residents to place bets on the US election. Two weeks ago, the CFTC gave Polymarket the green light to allow those very same US residents to place bets on whatever they like. This is quite the turn of events — and it’s not just about elections or politics. With its US government seal of approval in hand, Polymarket is reportedly raising capital at a valuation of $9 billion — a reflection of the growing belief that prediction markets will be used for much more than betting on elections once every four years. Instead, proponents say prediction markets can provide a real service to the world by providing it with better information about nearly everything. I think they might, too — but only if insiders are free to participate. Yesterday, for example, Polymarket announced new betting markets on company earnings reports, with a promise that it would improve the information that investors have to work with.  Instead of waiting three months to find out how a company is faring, investors could simply watch the odds on Polymarket.  If the probability of an earnings beat is rising, for example, investors would know at a glance that things are going well. But that will only happen if enough of the people betting actually know how things are going. Relying on the wisdom of crowds to magically discern how a business is doing won’t add much incremental knowledge to the world; everyone’s guesses are unlikely to average out to the truth. If…
