Gitcoin Passport Integrates Unique Humanity Scores on Arbitrum
Gitcoin Passport has announced the integration of its Unique Humanity Scores on the Arbitrum layer 2 scaling solution. This move marks a crucial step in the evolution of decentralized identity and reputation, extending Passport's attestations to permissionless and decentralized infrastructure within the Ethereum ecosystem. By identifying humans across layer 2 networks and making that data available to developers, the ecosystem aims to become healthier and more resistant to Sybil attacks. Arbitrum, currently holding nearly 40% of the total layer 2 market share in terms of total value locked (TVL), is considered one of the most decentralized layer 2 solutions, making it a suitable platform for permissionless and decentralized access to unique humanity data. This integration is the beginning of Gitcoin Passport's plans for the Arbitrum ecosystem, with more launches expected this summer.
zkLink Announces ZKL Token Airdrop for Real Humans
zkLink, an aggregated layer 3 zkEVM rollup network, has announced an airdrop of their $ZKL token. To be eligible, users must build up a Unique Humanity Score of 20 on Gitcoin Passport, a Sybil defense and identity platform. Gitcoin Passport will collaborate with zkLink to review eligibility details and protect the airdrop using Model Based Detection to assess the likelihood of Sybil actors. Real humans will be able to claim the airdrop easily, while potential Sybil actors will need to take additional steps to prove their authenticity. This partnership aims to set a new standard for protecting airdrops by utilizing branded Sybil-defense tooling and data services to identify unique humans, ensuring tokens end up in the hands of those who will add long-term value to the ecosystem.
