Linea filters over half a million Sybil addresses from upcoming token airdrop

Linea filters over half a million Sybil addresses from upcoming token airdrop

Quick Take Linea identified and excluded 516,960 Sybil users from its upcoming token airdrop. Linea partnered with Nansen to analyze wallets and detect “Sybil” behavior, which included automated and coordinated activities across related wallets.

Consensys-incubated Ethereum Layer 2 network Linea undertook an initiative to analyze previously eligible wallets to filter out Sybil users from its upcoming airdrop distribution process.

Linea collaborated with Nansen to analyze wallets previously allocated Linea XP (LXP) tokens and spot “Sybil” behavior, which includes automated and coordinated activities across related wallets.

Their analysis initially flagged about 516,960 of the 1,297,203 eligible addresses as Sybils. After this process, the number of eligible addresses was reduced to 780,243.

These are the addresses that Linea developers suspect are fake or duplicates (referred to as “Sybil” addresses) from the list of recipients eligible for its upcoming token distribution — to ensure that the airdrop reaches legitimate and intended users.

Linea has made it possible to check whether a user has been marked as a Sybil via a specific webpage. If flagged, users can submit an appeal if they believe there has been an error.

Linea is a Layer 2 network (also called a zkEVM), one that leverages ZK-Rollup for scaling and is compatible with Ethereum apps. It has been operationally live since July 2023.

In November last year, the project launched a non-profit governance organization called Linea Association, which planned to conduct a token-generation event in the first quarter of 2025. This token rollout is expected to occur with a community airdrop, for which the developers appear to be finalizing the details.

The token will be key in governance, decentralizing the Layer 2 infrastructure, and transitioning the zkEVM to a permissionless system.

Still, further details on the token design, economics, and a snapshot of user activity for token allocations are yet to be announced.
