Starknet, the Ethereum layer-2 blockchain, has expanded the eligibility criteria for the first round of Starknet provisions to address concerns from certain user groups.
The Starknet Foundation has resolved issues regarding the eligibility of pre-Merge ETH stakers and Immutable X users for the February STRK airdrop. Eligibility is extended to VeVe users, Non-VeVe StarkEx users previously identified as VeVe users, and pooled stakers.
The newly eligible users for the February airdrop can initiate their STRK claims in April. Starknet shared this update with Cointelegraph, indicating that the process will begin soon.
Issues arose from inaccuracies in the list provided by Immutable X, which mistakenly classified many Immutable X users as VeVe users. With the list now corrected, Immutable X users who met specific transaction criteria before June 1, 2022, can claim their airdrop.
Starknet is in ongoing discussions with the VeVe team regarding airdrops for VeVe users, aiming to ensure fair distribution across all eligible participants.
Some challenges persisted for pooled ETH stakers, preventing them from claiming their STRK airdrop. Starknet is addressing these issues, with staking protocols providing lists of eligible users for the upcoming claim process.
Starknet’s airdrop schedule has undergone revisions, including changes to the unlock schedule and distribution strategy. These adjustments aim to prevent large token dumps by early contributors and investors.
The STRK airdrop faced criticism from users who felt unfairly excluded due to eligibility criteria. Following the airdrop, the price of STRK experienced significant volatility, dropping by 60% in a short period. Recovery has been challenging, with STRK currently trading at $1.88.
Starknet’s efforts to address eligibility concerns and streamline the airdrop process reflect its commitment to ensuring fairness and inclusivity within its ecosystem. Ongoing discussions and revisions underscore the project’s dedication to fostering a vibrant and sustainable community.
