Happy new year, Linea fam! As we step into 2024, let's look back at the Linea DeFi Voyage. With 6 weeks, 10 waves, 10 core tasks, 24 bonus tasks, and 2260LXP up for collection—over 450,000 Voyagers joined our in-depth exploration of the Linea DeFi ecosystem, breaking tons of web3 quest records in the process. All of this is thanks to the Voyagers. Here’s the recap. 🚀 https://linea.mirror.xyz/zBuXgYPBYBD7VeNC2GGJ8pUI0JHsof8qaaQSCvwWXbY Commencing November 7th 2023, Linea partnered with Intract and MetaMask Learn to deliver a 6 week Voyage covering all DeFi sectors. We sought to welcome everyone— from web3 newcomers to seasoned investors—to explore L2 DeFi by creating an intuitive, immersive, and educational quest experience. 🌐 Wave 0: DeFi Voyage Launch 🚀 We kicked things off by introducing Voyagers to core Linea, web3, and DeFi concepts. Wave 1: MetaMask 🦊 Voyagers began their L2 DeFi journey by bridging funds into Linea and swapping tokens using MetaMask Portfolio. Wave 2: Bridging and Onramps 🌉 Voyagers explored Linea’s bridging ecosystem. We looked at on-ramps that move fiat into crypto assets, and bridges, which connect Ethereum to other blockchains. Wave 3: Token Swaps 🔄 For the third wave, Voyagers explored Linea’s DEX and DEX aggregator ecosystem. They acquainted themselves with various crypto assets, including stablecoins, liquid staking tokens, and real-world assets. Wave 4: Lending and Borrowing 💰 During wave 4, Voyagers explored how to interact with DeFi money markets. They discovered that these markets offer traditional finance tools like interest and liquidity, supercharged with the power of decentralization. Wave 5: Liquidity Provision and Yield Farming 🌾 Here’s where complexity ramped up. Voyagers provided liquidity on selected pairs on Linea DEXs. Wave 6: Proof-of-Humanity 🧑🤝🧑 Wave 6 was focused on human verification. We asked Voyagers to prove their humanity and identity with Verax, an on-chain attestation registry that works like a trust and reputation scoring system. Wave 7: Trading 📈 During wave 7, Voyagers explored complex trading products. They experiences how DeFi hasn't just replicated existing financial products but introduces new paradigms that were previously unfeasible. Wave 8: SocialFi 📱 Exciting stuff! Voyagers minted personalized NFTs that captured each of their 2023 journey on the Linea network. They also got acquainted with our favorite new socialfi dapp, Tomo Social! Wave 9: SuperDapps 🦸♀️ For the penultimate wave of the DeFi Voyage, Voyagers explored SuperDapps. These dapps focus on provising a well-rounded user experience that can be a decisive factor when bringing the next billion users to DeFi and web3. Wave 10: Account Abstraction 🧩 For the final wave, Voyagers experienced how account abstraction upgrades the web3 dapp user experience and eliminates the need for convoluted secret recovery phrases, tricky transactions, and high gas fees. 🎉 Thanks to the Voyagers, Linea’s DeFi Voyage has been a tremendous success! Whether you joined to max out LXP, to learn more about L2 DeFi, to explore dapps on Linea, or all of the above, your efforts helped make Linea a more vibrant and engaging ecosystem. Thank you to all the Voyagers who joined us on this journey. Your participation and enthusiasm have been so inspiring. Here's to many more adventures in the world of DeFi! 🥂 Join us on our community call tomorrow 9am ET to review stats and highlights from across the journey! 📞 https://youtu.be/hibieM5mZq8 Also, stay tuned for the DeFi Voyage NFT collection to drop next month! There is much more to come from the Linea team! We're excited about the future and can't wait to continue this journey with all of you. 🎉 Stay tuned for more updates and keep exploring the Linea DeFi ecosystem. The future of finance is here, and you're a part of it. Onwards and upwards, Voyagers! 🚀
The Proof of Humanity wave is coming soon!👀 In preparation, we wanted to go through some crucial consideration points. Remember: Linea Voyage XP (LXP) are NON-TRANSFERABLE.⚠️ This means that once LXP are collected in a wallet account, they cannot be moved. It is therefore crucial to accumulate LXP in one wallet to accurately measure your contribution to the growth of the Linea network. ✴️How does POH work? LXP can only be minted on accounts that can prove human ownership. This is done by examining your account’s historical data across multiple chains. Users will be able to carry out POH through identity partners once the POH wave is launched. ✴️How can I ensure POH success? If you engage with the Linea Voyage using a new account, distinguishing your activity from that of a bot will be challenging, making Proof of Humanity more complex. We recommend designating your main account as the “primary account” for the Linea Voyage, and accumulating your Voyage XP there. This approach simplifies the POH process and offers the best user experience. 🔑 We do understand that using your primary account may not always be practical or secure. Therefore, the Linea team developed a way to bind multiple accounts on linea.build.🥳 ✴️How do I bind my accounts? On linea.build, you should be able to connect and set up your primary account, which must pass POH through the Verax registry, and then designate a series of ‘secondary accounts aka alternative accounts that you may use across activations. Once the accounts are bound, any XP intended for your secondary accounts will be minted on your primary account. ⚠️ Before binding an account, it is important to note that binding is an irreversible action. Once a secondary account is bound, XP will automatically accumulate in your primary account and your secondary account moving forward will not collect any XP. Consider carefully before binding! Once the accounts are bound, Voyagers are free to engage with activations using any wallet account, including accounts on embedded wallets.🔮 Looking for a step by step wallet binding tutorial? Here it is: https://docs.linea.build/use-mainnet/linea-xp

We launched Linea Voyage 9 weeks ago with the ambitious goal of stress testing Linea and preparing it for mainnet. The response and participation from builders worldwide have surpassed all our expectations. At Linea, we're proud to be the first zkEVM to achieve such an overwhelming response from the community. The Linea Voyage isn't solely about stress testing the network; it's about scaling and growing Ethereum as a whole. As a record number of builders have chosen to join us on this incredible journey, we've encountered some challenges along the way. With your help, we've learned and improved the network every step of the Voyage. Linea is the outcome of four years of extensive research and development. Your valuable insights and feedback are key to continuing our mission of scaling Ethereum. We also invite dapps to join the growing Linea ecosystem. With fast finality, capital-efficient bridging, Ethereum-level security, and full EVM equivalence, it enables seamless development and usage. Also, Linea’s deep integration with MetaMask and other popular Consensys developer tools amplifies its adoption, providing an established user base for dapps. To our fellow builders, we understand that some of you may not have reached your destination in the voyage. Don't worry, the journey doesn't end here! As our name ‘Linea’ (Latin word for “line”) symbolizes, we will continue making progress to discover endless web3 possibilities. Stay tuned for what's coming!

📢Excited to announce "I'm a First Class Linea Citizen": a campaign to combat bots, prioritize real user engagement in Linea Voyage. We’ve teamed up with @gitcoin.lens Passport, @galxehq.lens Passport, and @guild.lens to create a fair, authentic community experience. Now you all know that we've been stress-testing our network for mainnet launch with Linea Voyage. Bots and sybils help us reach our goals, but if they monopolize resources, it's a problem. Our solution? Reward humans with recognized credentials to celebrate being human! Our system will reward users with a very high amount of points for the human verification credential. This is done in order to catapult real humans to the top of Linea Voyage, leaving bots behind! The objective: bots and sybils drop to the bottom, affecting their ability to justify resources for bot operation. The campaign runs till the end of Linea Voyage! Users can choose the credential they prefer to prove their humanity. Already have a Gitcoin or Galxe Passport, or signed up at guild.xyz? No extra steps - just reap your benefits! 🚨As always: Beware of scammers asking for payment to get a passport. REMEMBER: WE WILL NEVER ASK FOR YOUR MONEY OR PM YOU FIRST. Let's create an authentic Linea community, where human participation is valued, and bots take a back seat. https://galxe.com/Linea/campaign/GCKurUN4yC
