Starknet Airdrop Faces Accusations of Unfairness and Secrecy

Starknet is a layer-2 blockchain that makes use of zero-knowledge cryptography. The qualifications for the STRK airdrop are mainly divided into three groups: Starknet users, developers and contributors to the ecosystem; Ethereum builders and stakers, and non-Web3 open-source developers.

In a previous airdrop, Stark encountered unpleasant incidents. One Twitter blogger claimed that despite having thirty accounts and trading volumes totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars, they didn't receive a single token. Another Twitter blogger alleged serious behind-the-scenes manipulation during the selection process.

The behavior of slaves

The first blogger felt that despite their relentless hard work every day, they ended up with nothing, akin to being a slave.

ECMP Participant Calls for Transparency in Stark's Team Selection

The second blogger, as a participant in the ECMP program, expresses a desire for Stark's official team to promptly disclose the selection criteria and results. Otherwise, they have reason to believe there's serious behind-the-scenes manipulation during the selection process.

The basis for this conclusion is: Some ecosystem projects have pre-selection rights and directly appoint multiple MODs from their own communities, with each receiving 10,000 $STRK tokens.

When they made a normal inquiry in the official DC Chinese channel (without any questioning or insulting remarks), they were unexpectedly banned from speaking for a month. They hope for the community management to be standardized; otherwise, the entire community will suffer.

Starknet, a layer-2 blockchain utilizing zero-knowledge cryptography, initiated an airdrop with qualifications for Starknet users, Ethereum builders, and non-Web3 developers. However, past airdrops faced criticism for alleged unfairness and lack of transparency. Users likened their efforts to slavery, while others demanded clarity on selection criteria, suspecting manipulation. Instances of favoritism were cited, prompting calls for standardized community management to prevent future issues.
