Dive deeper into Scroll
SCR is the native token of the Scroll protocol. SCR is used to decentralize governance, provers, and sequencer tasks within the network. The token launched during October 2024, and supports the Scroll protocol's goal of building scalable and secure Layer-2 (L2) infrastructure for the Ethereum network.
What is the Scroll protocol?
The Scroll protocol is an L2 scaling solution built to address two pressing challenges with the Ethereum network: congestion and high transaction fees. Scroll joins other L2 solutions working towards fixing this same challenge. Scroll uses zero-knowledge rollup technology to reduce latency and improve scalability for Ethereum with the goal of not compromising the network's security. Scroll also adopts a zkEVM — an L2 for the Ethereum Virtual Machine — to support developers that build on the network.
Scroll operates separately from the Ethereum mainet and manages transactions offchain, reducing the workload on the Ethereum base layer. Scroll bundles transactions together before submitting them to Ethereum, improving the efficiency of transaction processing while also reducing fees.
SCR price and tokenomics
The SCR token was launched via an airdrop on October 22, 2024, with a total supply of 1,000,000,000 SCR. Of this supply, 15% will be distributed via airdrops, with 7% of this portion being allocated during October 2024. According to the project, 35% of the total supply will go towards ecosystem and growth, including the Scroll DAO treasury, with 23% being distributed to Scroll ecosystem contributors. Meanwhile, 17% has been allocated to investors and 10% to the Scroll Foundation. Traders can expect Scroll prices to experience volatility upon the SCR token launch and soon after.
