Leading player in the Japanese web3 ecosystem, Astar Network, has announced an NFT campaign called “Astar zkEVM Powered by Polygon” for the Ethereum Layer 2 mainnet release. This offers exceptional opportunities for collaboration for initiatives and companies with similar objectives.
Campaign overview:
The campaign commemorates the mainnet launch of Astar zkEVM, scheduled for the first quarter of 2024.

The characters can be ‘upgraded’ by people who participate more in the campaign and meet the conditions, including collecting the NFTs generated by the initiatives.
Why participate in the web3 project campaign?
Exposure
Astar has already built a dedicated user base in blockchains as pioneers in the use of the Polygon CDK (Chain Development Kit) and as the largest parachain in terms of market capitalization within the Polkadot ecosystem. To further expand its reach, Astar Network also works closely with communities around the world. The target user base extends beyond just web3 natives with a user interface that makes digital assets easily accessible. The campaign gives the projects the opportunity to present their offering to a global audience consisting of both new and existing web3 users.
entering Japan
Participating in the campaign gives the project the opportunity to explore the Japanese web3 market. Astar Network, which works with government organizations and works with Japanese companies that are increasingly interested in participating in the web3 domain, is a major factor in the country’s adoption of web3. By utilizing existing connections, Astar Network will make every effort to explore possible opportunities to enter the Japanese market together with the projects involved.
Maarten Henskens, head of the Astar Foundation stated:
“We are excited to share the launch of Astar zkEVM with Polygon Labs in the first quarter of next year. It’s the solution our business partners need to build seamlessly on Ethereum. More than 320 organizations have joined Astar and are prepared for the next wave of web3 development in Asia in 2024. We are now opening doors globally to invite projects, artists and companies who have yet to explore web3 to get in touch and joining Astar zkEVM with this builder-friendly campaign.”
