The Crypto Watcher 2024 Challenge - LayerZero, zkSync And NFTs

As Uthred of Bebbanburg often said... Destiny is all! The Cryptoverse is the "Last Kingdom" and represents the freedom we all seek. We all want to fully embrace Web3 and a trully decentralized world... but bad actors are waiting for a smallest mistake! Scammers and exploits are always around, and our assets are always in danger!

I will take you in this journey, and will let you be The Watcher! See how I explore uncharted ecosystem with a single goal... to recover the crypto I've lost in January! I will show you that time, space and reality are more than a linear path! In this prism of endless possibility, a single choice can branch out into infinite realities. In some I will fail, while in others I will reach my targets. Follow me and dare to face the unknown, and ponder the question... What if?

Boom! The $ZK token finally dropped! The eligibility and allocations for ZKsync users had four sequential steps: eligibility, allocation, multipliers and sybil detection. The final step filtered those wallets with bot behaviour.

Good or bad? I hustled for one year and when I checked the allocation page, I was both happy and sad! I was upset because I've seen people getting 100,000 $ZK tokens on multiple wallets, and I was happy to see that I've got 6184 $ZK to claim.

I claimed my $ZK gas free, and delegated them to a community that will vote for the best interest of the ecosystem. The value of the tokens is now $1,111 and keeps growing! I have positive vibes about $ZK and I put the whole amount on HODL mode!

I am earning $OP and $ETH on Publish0x, my SocialFi headquarters! I started writing crypto content in 2020 and kept going. I didn't withdraw my gains for few months so the time has come!

It turned even better when the tipping system shifted from Ethereum mainnet to Optimism, as the fees are minimal. Completed my withdraw at the end of June, and the funds arrived in my wallet in few hours. Boosted my bags with 34 $OP tokens and 0.05 $ETH, valued at $233 on the day.

What else? That stupid LayerZero airdrop because no matter what Bryan will say... it was an airdrop! Adding a "donation" on the claim made it even more ridiculous because a donation should be voluntary!

They just added a fee per claimed token, which was mandatory, claiming that the "proof of donation" will reduce the Sybil participation. I've seen people showing off their allowance on Twitter, some getting $ZRO on dozens of wallets.

I have a main wallet, and an alt wallet... and I was eligible on both. I didn't do anything to farm $ZRO, just genuine crypto farming and minted some ZKitty NFTs. The amount of $ZRO was 95.999 tokens, which I dumped for 339 USDC! Sometimes you have to cash out, specially when the project is a dodgy one!

My Yield Yak journey continues, as I climb the mountain towards one full $YAK token. I've got 0.2 YAK to stake, and $92 were added into those sweet auto-compounding YAK pools. Every little slice meant more passive income secured on the long run

Yield Yak is the most popular and most used optimizer on Avalanche, due to the great variety of opportunities that it offers. An optimizer is in charge of maximizing the annual percentage of rewards that users can get when farming or staking your cryptocurrencies on other platforms.

Saga Vault 2 was open for claims, and then distributed. I missed the claim period for Vault 1, and this affected heavily my allocation. I received only 21 $SAGA, but that's better than nothing! Got $29 in my wallet, and staked them for future drops!

Last and not least, I followed Byron on Stargaze... as he launched the Creepy Companions. Joined the AAA MetaHuahua discord to support him in this leap of faith, and won two NFTs by taking part in various activities. I got one MetaHuahua, one of the 3333 NFTS that serves as a golden ticket into the Huahuaverse.

As you navigate the Huahuaverse, you’re not alone... you’re part of a thriving community that shapes its evolution. Few days later I won a Teritori NFT, and now I am a collector on Cosmos as well. The value of both NFTs is somewhere close to $60, and the floor price is going up! I am holding two gems!

CryptoWatcher January : $594

CryptoWatcher February: $2796

CryptoWatcher March: $436

Total crypto earnings in Q1 2024: $3826 (10.93%)

CryptoWatcher April: $7,685

CryptoWatcher May: $1,713

CryptoWatcher June: $1792

Total crypto earnings in Q2 2024: $11,190 (10.93%)

Half way trough the challenge and I am nearly half way trough my goal. Lost $35,000 in January and took me half of year to hustle and grind $14,916 back!

However, there's always a bit of sarcasm when it comes to crypto! Most of the gains were from airdrops, and calculated at the time of the drop... or soon after. The current value of all the above went downhill since drop-day and now the amount I hold is under $4000! You must love crypto when your portfolio drops 60% in few months!
