Get ready, crypto enthusiasts! The Starknet Foundation just announced a massive airdrop of their native token, STRK, to nearly 1.3 million wallets. This includes early users of Starknet dapps, network contributors, and even some Ethereum participants!

Starknet, for those unfamiliar, is an Ethereum scaling solution aiming to make decentralized applications faster and cheaper. Their new token, STRK, will play a key role in decentralizing and governing the network.

“STRK is designed to empower the community to run and manage Starknet,” said Diego Oliva, CEO of Starknet Foundation. “This airdrop rewards those who helped build and use our ecosystem from the start.”

The airdrop kicks off on February 20th, with eligible wallets having four months to claim their share of over 700 million STRK tokens (7% of the total supply). Who qualifies?

  • Early Starknet users: If you actively interacted with Starknet dapps like dYdX or ImmutableX, you might be in luck!
  • Ethereum contributors: Protocol Guild members, EIP authors, and solo stakers are also eligible.
  • Open-source developers: Even developers outside the web3 world who contributed to Starknet’s open-source codebase can claim tokens.

In total, over half a million Starknet and StarkEx wallets, 137,000 open-source devs, and 19,000 ETH stakers qualify for the airdrop. The exact criteria considered transaction volume and network engagement, ensuring rewards go to those who truly supported the project.

This airdrop is just one of many community initiatives by Starknet. They recently launched a devonomics program and plan further incentives to boost ecosystem activity.
