StarkNet Foundation Announces STRK Airdrop, Over 1.3M Wallets Eligible

The Starknet Foundation has announced the airdrop of its STRK token to nearly 1.3 million wallets in the largest initial distribution by eligible addresses so far. This surpasses recent airdrops from projects like Dymension and Jupiter. Dymension distributed its DYM tokens to over 1 million eligible addresses, while Solana DEX aggregator Jupiter airdropped JUP to 955,000 eligible wallets.

Starting February 20th, eligible individuals can claim their share of over 700 million STRK tokens. This includes Starknet users, contributors, developers, Ethereum EIP authors and ETH stakers, further extending the reach beyond the core Web3 community.

"This airdrop rewards those who have built on Starknet and encouraged its growth," emphasizes Eli Ben-Sasson, a key figure behind the project. "It also welcomes non-Web3 open-source developers, recognizing their potential contribution to the future of this technology."

This airdrop represents the first phase in a series of planned distributions, solidifying Starknet's commitment to rewarding early adopters and fostering ecosystem engagement. The claiming of STRK tokens is open until June 20. Beyond claiming their tokens, participants gain the ability to provide liquidity and trade STRK, further increasing its utility and potentially driving network activity.
