The launch of LINEA tokens on the Ethereum Layer 2 network, Linea, has been marred by technical glitches. These disruptions resulted in delays for users claiming their tokens, causing dissatisfaction among a large user base. The airdrop was halted for approximately 45 minutes prior to its scheduled release due to performance issues with the mainnet sequencer. While most users eventually received their tokens, the process was fraught with complications including high gas fees and technical bottlenecks that hindered access for many. The incident highlights the challenges involved in executing large-scale token distributions on blockchain platforms and emphasizes the need for robust infrastructure during such events.
