First talk about the results, then discuss the process
September: Linea TGE airdrop, 780,000 addresses, 283 million transactions, TVL reaching $1.27 billion—this is not just a cash grab, it’s real demand overwhelming the chain.
October: MetaMask spends $30 million to onboard users, Citi + Bank of America directly run a SWIFT pilot—airdrop projects instantly turn into payment infrastructure, the shift is faster than a flash crash.
Now: 6200 TPS, costs cut by 30 times, 350+ dApps are thriving, the Linea Association (headquartered in Switzerland) announces 85% of tokens belong to the community—zero-knowledge EVM era has launched, this is not a teaser!

① Pick up leftover airdrops
The LXP activity (points) is still ongoing, the tasks for season 6 will close within 24 hours, refreshing once on SyncSwap to swap tokens + minting an NFT on Zora = free 200 points + potential weight for the next round of airdrops.
Rule: Points ≠ tokens, but historically 1 LXP ≈ 0.12 LINEA (OTC valuation), 10 minutes to earn some pocket money, not earning = directly giving it away.
② Earn staking early interest
Throw LINEA into the official staking pool, starting annualized at 12% (early reward pool), the dual burn model = on-chain transaction fees + institutional settlement profits are repurchased together, the deflationary script is written, just waiting for TVL to continue to heat up.
Tip: With compound interest switch on, block settlement is instant, withdrawal takes only 0.25 seconds, faster than withdrawing USDT from CEX.
③ Focus on institutional opportunities
SWIFT pilot = banks settle daily using Linea zk-rollup, each transaction fee = POL burned, Citibank has a daily transaction volume of 10 billion USD, even if 0.01% runs on Linea, it's enough to burn tokens into a deflationary rocket.
Timing: The pilot report is expected in Q4, the most vigorous rally usually occurs 30 days before the favorable news is implemented (= mid to late November), with spot trading as a base + low leverage being the standard for seasoned traders.
On-chain data is easy to understand at a glance
TVL 1.27 billion USD, zkEVM is the top in the field, surpassing the sum of Scroll + zkSync.
Active addresses are increasing by 8% daily, with an average of over 2 million daily transactions. When ETH mainnet gas exceeds 40 gwei, Linea's bridging volume immediately increases by 300%—definitely a bear market vacuum cleaner.
Only 15% of tokens are in circulation, with the remaining 85% released linearly over 4 years, early selling pressure is very light, institutions can only acquire tokens through the secondary market.
The last shout
The 'Zero-Knowledge EVM' is not a teaser for the next episode; it's live right under your nose!
Airdrop season → Institutional season → Deflation season, completing the three steps leads to the main upward wave.
Before midnight tonight, the LXP task entrance can close at any time; if you don't refresh = you will permanently miss the next batch of airdrop snapshots.
Tomorrow night what you see on social media might be others flaunting screenshots of staking 12% compound interest, and when that happens, you'll regret not participating; the chain won't give refunds!
After transferring 10 USDT, first put the ticket in your pocket—
The route is open, the bank is on board, are you getting on?
