Starknet Foundation to Allocate 1.8B STRK Tokens 'Soon'

Validated Individual Expert

Starknet said 900 million STRK are earmarked for the foundation’s Provisions Committee, and 900 million will be dedicated to user rebates.

The Starknet Foundation, the governing body to promote Ethereum scaling product StarkWare technology, plans to start allocating over 1.8 billion STRK tokens "soon," the foundation said in a tweet on Friday.

StarkWare addresses the main Ethereum blockchain’s slow throughput and transaction fees using ZK rollup technologies that bundle hundreds of transactions off the main blockchain to reduce the computational stress.

In October, the Starknet Foundation earmarked 50 million STRK tokens for a new Early Community Member Program, or ECMP for short.

Some 900 million STRK have been allocated to the foundation’s Provisions Committee to reward past and future contributions by users and community members, Starknet said. A further 900 million tokens have been dedicated to user rebates, it said.

Regarding the user rebates, Starknet said: “Planning for this initiative is currently underway and a new committee is being formed to oversee the distribution of STRK to reward users for their vital transactions on the network.”

  • Analysis: Bitcoin May Continue 'May Sell-off', Historical Signals Indicate About 10% Short-term Correction Risk

    Bitcoin has been weakening for a month, retreating after being blocked near $83,000, and is currently moving towards a decline in May, which the market views as a classic seasonal signal of 'May sell-off' re-emerging. Historical data shows that Bitcoin's average return one month after a 'red May' is approximately -10%, and about -3.3% over three months, with short-term trends typically continuing to weaken; based on historical averages, the price could fall to around the $68,200 range. Analysis indicates that 'red May' in a bear market structure is often more destructive; however, Bitcoin's average increase over the six months following 'red May' can reach about +139%, and even after excluding anomalous years, it remains around +12.9%, indicating that the long-term trend has not been disrupted by seasonal signals.
