September 9, 2024, August payouts complete

Hello! Payouts for the completed month of August are done.

zkSync Era

As we announced was coming five months ago, two months ago we finally stopped support for zkSync Lite . We now only support layer 1 and zkSync Era.

zkSync Era payments went off without trouble again this month; we paid 428 unique addresses, which is once again the most yet! zkSync Era adopters received a 3% bonus and were paid out if they cleared the minimum payout threshold, which appears to have been at least $0.09.

You can opt into zkSync Era adding the following to your config file:

operator.wallet-features: ["zksync-era"]

or to your commandline:

--operator.wallet-features=zksync-era

Note that you need to update your configuration if you formerly had opted into vanilla zkSync Lite.

Layer 1

For layer 1 payments, we paid 3,804 unique wallet addresses. There is no specific minimum payment threshold but it appears that for standard payouts, the pipeline was able to pay out for people who earned $1.46 or more.

A reminder that the minimum payout threshold is currently set such that fees cannot exceed 25% of the transferred amount.

zkSync Era support in Storj Satellite reminder

As a reminder from four months ago, if you’ve been waiting, we now support paying your Storj account (on us1.storj.io , ap1.storj.io, or eu1.storj.io) via zkSync Era! Note that we did not and do not intend to add support for zkSync Lite, so be careful of the distinction. Nonetheless, you can now use your storage node earnings to pay your Storj bill if you have one via zkSync Era.

I feel like this payout may have been the peak for many of us for awhile. Now that the newly-effective bloom filters are melting away the lost SLC TTL data… like tears in rain.

Unless fresh US1 TTL customer data saves us all? :crossed_fingers:

Bloom filters remove data you wouldn’t be paid for anyway.
