Scroll (SCR) Pre-Market Futures Plunge to Record Low of $1.18 Ahead of Oct. 19 Airdrop

Scroll, the fast-growing zero-knowledge layer-2 network, confirmed that it would launch its airdrop on Oct. 19.

Scroll (SCR) pre-market futures hit a record low of $1.18 on Friday, Oct. 11, as traders expressed concern about the recent airdrops. At its lowest, Scroll futures were trading below the weekly highs of $1.74.

The majority of high-profile airdrops in recent months have crashed. Wormhole’s token crashed over 83% from its listing price, Hamster Kombat (HMSTR) dropped 72% from its all-time highs, and Catizen (CATI) also fell significantly.

This crash is partly due to the broader crypto market not performing well, with the fear and greed index remaining below 45. Bitcoin has also failed to move above the resistance at $65,000.

Another possible reason is that many recent airdrops have left a significant portion of their tokens locked. Wormhole has 2.58 billion tokens in circulation out of a maximum supply of 10 billion. Similarly, ZkSync has 3.6 billion tokens circulating and a maximum supply of 21 billion.

Scroll will have a maximum supply of 1 billion SCR tokens. Of these, 23% will be allocated to members that contribute to the network, 15% will be reserved for airdrops (7% in the first), and the rest will go to investors, the foundation, and ecosystem growth.

To be fair, these futures don't give us a complete picture of what will happen after the airdrop, as they are offered by a single exchange and their volume is relatively low. Its 24-hour turnover was only 854,320 contracts.
