Furthermore, Binance will integrate STRK into Binance Margin, Binance Futures, and Binance Auto-Invest on specific dates, enhancing accessibility and usability for traders and investors.

Lookonchain, a prominent provider of on-chain data analytics, uncovers a significant airdrop event involving 1,432,800 STRK tokens, valued at $3 million. Remarkably, this airdrop was distributed across 1,361 wallets, indicating widespread participation in the distribution of the digital assets. 
Analysis conducted by Lookonchain reveals that following the airdrop, the recipients, spanning 1,361 wallets, proceeded to transfer their allocated STRK tokens to a designated wallet address identified as “0x027c…9078”. This transfer activity suggests that recipients swiftly claimed their airdropped tokens and subsequently consolidated their holdings in a single wallet address.

Starknet functions as a Layer 2 solution, providing scalability and maintaining Ethereum-level security by creating STARK proofs off-chain, which are then transmitted on-chain. Developed by StarkWare Industries, an Israeli blockchain company, Starknet was purpose-built to tackle Ethereum’s scalability challenges. 
Starknet leverages STARKs, a cryptographic proof system, to validate transactions on the Ethereum network. Unlike other zero-knowledge rollup solutions that utilize SNARKs, STARKs offer quantum resilience and promise various scalability enhancements. 
Furthermore, Starknet intends to dedicate 50 million STRK tokens to incentivize DeFi protocols, thereby stimulating growth in Total Value Locked (TVL). These protocols, functioning on Starknet, are likely to distribute new tokens to users via airdrops. 
The initial staking Annual Percentage Yield (APY) stands at 12%, encouraging users to stake their tokens instead of selling them. Despite this, some individuals voiced discontent over not receiving the airdrop.
