Starknet Foundation Announces Highly Anticipated AirDrop
The Starknet Foundation announced today the launch of the STRK token, revealing that about 1.3 million wallet addresses that meet the criteria will receive the token via AirDrop.

Starknet is an Ethereum-based ZK-Rollup Layer 2 network that allows decentralized applications (dApps) to scale significantly without compromising security. The network performs transactions by aggregating them using an off-chain computed STARK consensus mechanism. These transactions are then sent to the Ethereum network as a single transaction, maintaining the robust security of the Ethereum settlement layer while providing higher efficiency, faster transaction times, and lower fees.
The native asset of the Starknet network is the STRK token. The STRK token serves many purposes, including decentralization and governance of the network.
