We’re excited to announce a one-of-a-kind collaboration with two other leading projects on the Starknet network: Ducks Everywhere and <a href="https://twitter.com/briqNFT" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">briq</a>. This is the first time that three projects have come together on Starknet and we’re delighted to share it with the community — a testament to the strength and vitality of the Starknet ecosystem.Why?Our purpose was to thank the zkLend community for their unwavering support over the last year. We wanted to do something reflective of the Starknet spirit — an ecosystem of pioneers applying cutting edge technology in creative ways to redefine the way we do things in games, art and finance. There’s nothing that demonstrates this more than the <a href="https://briq.construction/product/ducks_everywhere" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">home-grown designs</a> of Ducks Everywhere, the <a href="https://briq.construction/genesis" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">re-envisioning of Lego</a> from briq and of course, permissionless <a href="https://testnet.artemis.zklend.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">borrowing and lending</a> at zkLend.At the same time, the collaboration will also provide an opportunity for users to proactively use various dapps in the Starknet ecosystem (using wallets, displaying your NFTs, building and breaking briq sets, navigating NFT marketplaces, etc.), beyond just understanding of the core concepts that underpin zkLend, DeFi and Starknet which we have focused on so far.What are ZENDucks?Aside from being an adorable addition to the existing <a href="https://briq.construction/product/ducks_everywhere" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ducks Everywhere briq collection</a>, they are special “DeerDucks” inspired by Artemis, zkLend’s first money market protocol on Starknet and they feature:<ul><li>Full Function: The ZENDucks are fully functioning, real briq sets that you can build and enjoy yourself. Plus, they’ll help you get a grip on the entire Starknet ecosystem. Each ZENDuck comes with a key to unlock exclusive access to the ZENDucks Channel on the zkLend Discord.</li><li>Starknet Craftsmanship: There are only 5 designs, each with a limited edition of 10, so there’s only 50 total and that’s it. Each design was meticulously designed by Ducks Everywhere.</li><li>True Ownership: These ZENDucks are all yours: build ’em, break ’em, flex ’em, or trade ‘em! Users will also get naming rights for your Duck in the meta data.</li></ul>Drop DetailsThis is for the community — so there’s no whitelisting, no grinding or raffling and no sale. No shills, no profit. The most loyal and engaged users, as chosen fairly by the zkLend team based on the zkLend’s values, will get their ZENDucks airdropped.Our Selection Criteria:<ol><li>Active participants to zkLend’s community discussions and events</li><li>Helpful and resourceful to other community members</li><li>Contributors to our community initiatives, channels</li><li>Valuable ambassadors to promote, influence and onboard mass adoption of the Starknet ecosystem!</li></ol>The ZENDucks will be airdropped fully built, with each duck’s unique name embedded in the meta data (on chain!).Here’s the timeline of events.<img src="https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0*k3r0YaDCKlgiMZ0D" />ConclusionWe’re proud of this major moment for zkLend, Ducks Everywhere, and briq — most importantly, the community who have stood by us! We can’t wait for you to be a part of it. Ready to pioneer in the future of Starknet, together.About Ducks EverywhereThe Ducks Everywhere collection is waddling into town, and it’s bringing a whole flock of adorable NFT duckies with it.These tiny, briq-built ducks are the perfect addition to any collection that’s in need of some quackers.
