TL;DR

OKX Web3 and Linea are running a trading competition where users can win 18,002,486 LINEA tokens by trading LINEA pairs (LINEA/USDT, USDC, WETH, ETH) on the Linea network. Minimum volume is just $100, with rankings based on both trading volume and profit & loss (PnL). The contest runs from Sep 10, 2025 23:30 to Sep 24, 2025 23:00 (UTC+0). Great for both new and active traders looking for rewards and exposure to Linea’s evolving tokenomics.

What is Linea (LINEA)?

Linea is a Layer 2 (L2) scaling network built by Consensys to strengthen Ethereum and the broader ETH ecosystem. It uses zk-EVM architecture, meaning it processes transactions off-chain via zero-knowledge proofs but remains fully compatible with Ethereum smart contracts and tooling.

Key features include:

EVM-equivalence, letting existing Ethereum dApps work with little change.
Lower transaction fees and faster settlement times compared to Ethereum mainnet.
Token generation event (TGE) with over 9.36 billion LINEA tokens claimable over a 90-day window, ending December 9, 2025.
Dual fee-burning system: part of transaction fees (in ETH) are burned or used to buy back LINEA tokens, which supports scarcity.

What makes Linea newsworthy now

The token just launched, creating high attention in the ecosystem. High trading volume and interest were seen immediately after the airdrop and TGE.
But with the airdrop came sell-pressure: whales and early recipients have sold, leading to significant price drops (20-50%) from initial highs.
Linea’s tokenomics offer potential recovery or stabilization via buy-back + burn mechanics, ecosystem usage, and staking / governance expectations.

FAQ

Yes, if you're comfortable trading on the Linea network and want to earn rewards beyond just speculation. Even with $100 you can participate. But if you’re highly risk averse to volatility or new to trading, approach cautiously.

Based on both **realized and unrealized** profits from eligible trades. (Be sure you understand which trades count.) Uncounted: airdrop earnings; tiny trades; certain order types.

Consider locking in profits early, using stop-loss / limit orders, or partially exiting positions to mitigate loss. Also, monitor token price post-airdrop events.
