On July 8, The Block reported that the Arbitrum-based decentralized exchange Vertex Protocol will discontinue its $VRTX token and rebuild its DEX exclusively on Ink, a Layer 2 network incubated by Kraken. As part of the migration, Vertex developers will also discontinue the $VRTX token. A snapshot is planned for Tuesday, July 8, to determine eligibility for the INK airdrop. The airdrop will provide $VRTX holders with 1% of the Ink genesis coin supply and enhance their access to upcoming incentive programs. Funds and unvested $VRTX will be burned. Web3 M&A platform Acquir.Fi facilitated the deal between Ink and Vertex. However, the financial details were not disclosed by either party. [Deep Tide TechFlow]
