Over 500,000 Starknet wallets and 600,000 StarkEx wallets qualify for the <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/tag/airdrop/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">airdrop</a>, along with 137,000 open-source developers and 19,000 ETH stakers. Notably, more than 2,000 individuals enrolled in the “Starknet Early Community Members Program” will receive substantial allocations based on their contributions to the network’s development.

Since December, the anticipation surrounding the airdrop has catalyzed a 75% increase in TVL, indicating significant community interest and engagement in Starknet’s ecosystem.
Overall, the imminent launch of the STRK token grabs significant attention within the crypto community, resonating prominently across crypto Twitter.
