=Nil; Foundation (N/A)

=Nil; is an Ethereum Layer 2 network that introduces a new way of Ethereum scaling - zkSharding. zkSharding is a pioneering method of scaling the initial blockchain network using both vertical and horizontal scaling. It implements sharding as a key way of horizontal scaling to deliver lower fee costs and transaction speed with a high level of decentralization and Ethereum-level security. 

Here’s how =Nil; foundation achieves this: 

• Horizontal scaling: Unlike Ethereum’s validation model where every node validates every transaction, =Nil; split the blockchain into multiple shards, allowing them to process sets of transactions in parallel. This means the more shards (sets of nodes) will be added to the platform the higher the scalability of the network, and the lower transaction fee will be.
   
• Vertical scaling: At the same time, the zkSharding approach introduced by the nil crypto network introduces Zero-Knowledge technology as a way of vertical scaling through Ethereum L1. This way the network achieves even greater scalability potential yet with an L1-level security of the blockchain.

=Nil; token: According to the recent announcement of ICO on Ledion launchpad, =Nil; is going to release a native token soon but its utility and economy haven’t been presented yet. Nevertheless, our team assumes it will be powering its governance layer and staking to secure sequencer across =Nil; layer 2, similarly to the $STRK, $SCR, $MOVE, and others. 
What’s more, according to the claims on the website, it has an active testnet campaign, open for developers and dApp builders but not users. Still, with a mainnet launch set for 2025, it is very likely the =Nil; foundation token and potentially =Nil; L2 airdrop going to be released nearly at the same time.

Considering this info, the CoinLaunch team prepared a comprehensive set of pros and cons of the project so you can make a more informed decision if it's worth jumping in =Nil; token sale on Legion launchpad:

✅ =Nil; pros: 

• Decent concept and design of the project;
• ICO on Legion;
• High SEO performance;
• Above the average PR score;
• Diverse network of top-tier funds and investors;
• Qualitative partners actively collaborating with the project;
• The project’s CEO has an extensive work experience in Delphi Digital.

❌ =Nil; cons:

• No tokenomics yet;
• The industry the project is located in (Ethereum L2s) doesn’t align with the current market narrative;
• No security audits;
• No publicly available product;
• Below the average Marketing Infrastructure, and SMM;
• Very low Growth Marketing, and Influencer Marketing scores.
