1. Miners: Miners who mined blocks between DS epochs 13,941 and 13,950 will be rewarded using our treasury to compensate for the loss of mining rewards due to the roll back.

The formula we are using is: 204,000 ZIL per DS block / numbers of mining nodes excluding guard nodes.

Usually, guard node rewards are excluded and remain in the mining reward pool. However, as a sincere apology to all our miners, we will be adding this component to the compensation plan. As such, mining nodes can expect to get higher than average reward for the compensation. Compensation will be distributed on-chain directly to the address of the mining nodes.

This compensation will be disbursed in the next couple of days to the pools/miners and it'll be up to the mining pools to compensate their customers from the rewards received.

2. Users sending ZIL: There will be no compensation for such transactions as all of these were successfully committed back to the rolled-back chain.

3. Users interacting with contracts: For transactions that either failed on the rolled-back network or on the unrolled network, we will look at the gas fees paid by the user and compensate them by 5x of the fees paid. We plan to do this in the next couple of days.

We would also like to reward the DUCK project team a sum of USD 30,000 (in ZIL) for reporting the bug to us. This is a small token of appreciation for their proactiveness. We will reach out to them in the next couple of days. Thanks again!


Sincerely,

The Zilliqa Team

THURSDAY 🌉
ZilBridge is now live on the mainnet! Zilliqans - you’re invited to pool ETH, WBTC and USDT with ZIL on ZilSwap starting 6 Oct to enjoy high yields

In a nutshell:

🔗 You can now bridge over ETH, WBTC and USDT assets to the Zilliqa blockchain seamlessly.
🔗 Millions of users can benefit from the best features of the Ethereum and Zilliqa protocols (not to mention other chains in the future!). Ethereum token holders and developers alike will be able to access Zilliqa’s comparatively affordable gas fees by transferring existing decentralised applications (dApps) into Zilliqa.

🔗 Incentives worth 45.3M ZIL (US$3.75M) will be distributed to those who pool their assets on ZILSwap; this will begin Oct 6, for a total of 6 weeks. Liquidity providers on any of the pools ETH-ZIL/WBTC-ZIL/USDT-ZIL can earn lucrative yields on liquidity mining incentives alone.

🔗 The interoperability created could not come to fruition without our brilliant partners Switcheo Labs and Polynetwork. Their technology has made this bridge what it is - a gateway for seamless cross-chain communication. What a time to be alive!

We launch our bridge today and two projects have already integrated with it!

Zilmorphs (www.zilmorphs.com) is a collection of 8,000 machine learning generated creatures on the Zilliqa blockchain that can only be bought with zWBTC, zETH, and zUSDT 🐉

Button (https://button.claims/) is an online meta-game and social experiment created in celebration of the mainnet ZilBridge launch! A 1 $BUTTON is required to push the Button and it will be added to the $BUTTON stack (that's alot of buttons). Each click of a button will reset the timer to 5 blocks (~3 min) and the last person to press the Button with no one else clicking it will walk away with 38% of the $BUTTON stack 🔘

Keep the innovation coming!

Dear all,

As gZIL minting is coming closer to an end (in about 2 days from now), do make sure to claim your last gZILs.

If you are not an active staker, it's time to become one and claim your staking rewards and along with that your gZIL. Any gZIL that remains unclaimed after block number 1,483,713, will forever become unclaimable. For those who have been actively staking and therefore wish to claim the last gZILs, make sure to do so between block 1,483,600 (the last reward cycle) and 1,483,713 (the block when minting stops).

The attached infographic has all the necessary information. Do help share it around to fellow stakers.

Some useful links:

1. ZILStream to see an approximate time left: https://zilstream.com/
2. Viewblock to see the current block number: https://viewblock.io/zilliqa/blocks
3. Ignite DAO's Telegram notification bot to be notified when the last rewards (at block 1,483,600) get disbursed: https://t.me/ZillacracyNotifications


Best,
The Zilliqa Team
