ZKsync airdrop is showing us what some of the L2s think about real users, for instance: 'Real people, on the other hand, tend to concentrate most of their wealth in just a few accounts, making their balances much larger compared to bots.' While this isn't exactly incorrect (with new users) it's also a very naive way to look at users. Sophisticated crypto users know very well all the risks + lack of privacy in crypto and quite often they use multiple wallets to experiment with different chains/projects.

Anyway this isn't accurate at all: 'By focusing on balances, value-scaling eliminated most bots and opportunists, leaving a large majority of organic people intact.' value-scaling is trash if that metric doesn't consider all chains and the wallet history over multiple years.

Btw, let's not ignore that industrial farmers have way more funds than the average user. Many of them can easily deploy and split 100/1000eth across 100/1000 wallets. They usually also have access to inside information, they need to protect their farms and extract the most they can. Ignoring that isn't smart.
