Summary
Matter Labs announced the distribution plan for its ZK token airdrop, with 17.5% of the 21 billion tokens to be airdropped to users. The airdrop will be the largest among major L2s, with 89% going to ZKsync users and 11% to ecosystem contributors. The airdrop's fully diluted value is estimated at $2.5 billion.

The airdrop aims to prioritize community and governance.
