To join the fun and try out zkLink Nova’s newest Layer 3, and participate in a chance to win ZKL and NFT rewards, head over to our campaign homepage here and below.

Step 1: Enter Your Invite Code

  1. Go to app.zklink.io and enter your invite code.
  2. Click the “Submit” button.

You can acquire an invite code by searching #zkLinkNovaAggParade on Twitter/X.

Step 2: Verify Your Invite Code

  1. Click the “Verify” button — and once your code is successfully verified, the whole bar will turn green.

If step 2 failed to verify the invite code, it may be due to two reasons:

  1. The invitation code is invalid.
  2. All invitation codes have a limited invite CAP amount. Therefore, the code you have received may have already reached its cap limit.

Step 3: Connect & Sign The Message In Your Wallet

  1. Click the “Connect and Verify” button. If you’ve already connected your wallet, the button status will change to “Verify”.
  2. Select the wallet of your choice and click the “Connect” button in your wallet’s pop-up screen.
  3. Click the “Sign” button in your wallet pop-up. *Clicking the “Sign” button will not create any transactions*.

Step 4: Bridge & Earn

  1. Click the “Bridge” button. If you’ve already made a valid deposit before, you may skip these steps. You do not have to deposit again to qualify. For users who have already made deposits to zkLink Nova prior to the beginning of this campaign, please refer to — Step 5: *For Users Who Have Already Deposited To zkLink Nova*.

2. First, select your preferred Network and Token that you would like to use for depositing into zkLink Nova. Then, enter the amount of token you would like to deposit to zkLink Nova. Please make sure your deposit surpasses the minimum entry requirement.

  • Minimum Entry amount after the 7th day: 0.25 ETH (Or Equivalent)

*Note: Any amount below the minimum deposit levels will not receive Nova points*

3. Click the “Continue” button and sign the transaction in your wallet pop-up screen.

4. After the deposit has been made, you can now click the “Click to verify your transaction” button, which will bring you back to the verification page.

5. Click the “Verify” button — and your transaction hash will be automatically filled in. Please be aware that different chains have different confirmation speeds.

  • Ethereum: 12.5 minutes
  • zkSync Era: 1 minute
  • Linea: 1 minute
  • Manta: 1 minute
  • Arbitrum: Less than 1 minute

Step 5: *For Users Who Have Already Deposited To zkLink Nova*

2. Once you have the transaction hash, click the verification button.
