Starknet's STRK Token Launch: $1.2B Market Cap and Governance Power
  • Starknet Foundation will distribute over 700 million STRK tokens on February 20 as part of a 'provisions program', not a traditional airdrop.

  • STRK tokens will grant voting rights in Starknet's governance and serve utility purposes within the network.

  • The tokens are anticipated to debut at a price of $1.65, suggesting a market capitalization of around $1.2 billion.

  • OKX, a major exchange, has confirmed it will list STRK tokens for trading, with STRK/USDT as the initial trading pair.

  • The allocation represents about 7% of Starknet's total token supply, with a projected fully diluted valuation exceeding $16 billion.

  • Starkware's main contributors and investors will have their 1.3 billion tokens unlocked two months post-trading commencement, causing some community dissent.

  • Starknet asserts that rapid token unlocks are to honor early project contributors and is part of a broader strategy encouraging community governance.

  • The total value locked in Starknet has recently risen to over $56 million, highlighting the growing interest in the platform.

  • Separately, Pullix's PLX token has increased in value during its presale, signaling investor confidence and the potential for novel investment opportunities in the crypto space.
