Hello, txCitizens!

Our journey over the past few months has been nothing short of a rollercoaster of innovation, and we can't wait to dive into the details with you. We're absolutely thrilled to introduce latest txSync addition: 𝘁𝘅𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱! 🥳🎉

The Vision

txPlayground was created with one goal in mind: to empower our users to test, learn, and understand our products! We don't just want to tell you about our products; we want you to experience them firsthand!

It's your opportunity to put our groundbreaking innovations to the test and see them in action. That's why we named it Playground – because it's a space where you can play, explore, and discover the endless possibilities. 🔥

Since we recently launched our groundbreaking product txTsuko, for right now, on txPlayground you can test out the 𝗧𝘀𝘂𝗸𝗼𝘀 you've created with 𝘁𝘅𝗧𝘀𝘂𝗸𝗼, and see them in action!

Note: A Tsuko is a paymaster on zkSync that can cover gas fees for your users or enable them to pay in custom ERC20 tokens. You can create your own Tsuko at txtsuko.io

But that's just the beginning. As we launch new products, you'll have the opportunity to test and play with them too. So stay tuned for that 👀

How to test out Tsuko with txPlayground

Upon entering txPlayground, you'll be greeted by a message: 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝘅𝗧𝘀𝘂𝗸𝗼 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱, 𝘁𝘅𝗖𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗻! This message is more than a simple greeting—it's your own "Hello World!" on the blockchain, and you can now customize it however you want on txPlayground !

But, here's the twist—since the message lives on the blockchain, updating it requires a new transaction. And as with all transactions on the blockchain, this usually comes with the need to pay gas fees in ETH.

Or does it? 😉

Now, with txTsuko, we're changing the game when it comes to gas fees, and you can test out, play around with, and see Tsuko in action on txPlayground!

There are 3 ways you can pay your gas fees when changing the greeting message on our txPlayground:

• Paying gas fee for yourself: The traditional way, where you handle the gas fees using your own ETH from your wallet.
• Using Sponsored Tsuko: Revolutionize your experience by using a Sponsored Tsuko to cover the gas fees for you. This is a game-changer for developers and businesses looking to offer a seamless experience to their users.
• Using ERC20 Tsuko: Go beyond ETH and pay your gas fees with a custom ERC20 token. This offers greater flexibility and opens up new possibilities for token utilization.

Changing messages with sponsored Tsuko: A step-by-step guide

• Type a new message: Start by crafting the message you want the playground to display.
• Choose “Sponsored Tsuko”: Select this option to leverage a Tsuko that covers your gas fees.
• Select your Sponsored Tsuko: If you haven’t created one yet, visit txtsuko.io to make one. If you already have a Sponsored Tsuko, simply choose it from the dropdown.
• Click “Change Message” button: If your selected Tsuko lacks funds, you'll need to top it up with some ETH.
• Confirm the transaction

And just like that, your message is live, and you didn't have to pay the gas fees!

Changing messages with ERC20 Tsuko: A step-by-step guide

• Type a new message: Start by crafting the message you want the playground to display.
• Choose “ERC20 Tsuko”: Select this option to leverage a Tsuko that’s not limited to ETH.‍

Note: Currently txTsuko supports USDC and STORJ tokens for ERC20 Tsuko type

• Select your ERC20 Tsuko: If you haven’t created one yet, visit txtsuko.io to make one. If you already have a ERC20  Tsuko, simply choose it from the dropdown.
• Click “Change Message” button: If your Tsuko lacks funds, you'll need to top it up with some ETH. Also, make sure that your wallet has enough ERC20 tokens you selected.
• Confirm the transaction.

And you’re done! You’ve changed message without needing to spend ETH on your gas fees! 🔥

The future is exciting!

At txPlayground, we showcase a basic example to demonstrate Tsuko's potential, making it easy for everyone to get started! We're excited for you to experience the simplicity of starting with us, and even more excited to see the innovative ways you will utilize this technology.

Remember, the possibilities are endless. And we're here to support you every step of the way.
