- PREPARING FOR $STRK 🐺
Time sensitive post, 8 hours left ⏰
@argentHQ wallet is doing a "Xplorer Campaign" - something similar to the Arbitrum Odyssey that got the $ARB airdrop to many users.
There are 8 NFTs to collect. Deadline for the 1st is today
Airdrop Strategy 🪂:
1/xx
Similar to Arbitrum Odyssey, Argent is:
• Launching one campaign per week
• Rewarding 1 NFT per week after each campaign
• Helping users get to know the Starknet ecosystem
• Helping protocols get discovered
2/9
$STRK: remember that the token has already been confirmed and deployed. Not currently trading:
0xca14007eff0db1f8135f4c25b34de49ab0d42766
There is no information about a retroactive airdrop for Starknet users yet, but there is 8.1% of "Unallocated" supply.
3/9
$STRK: In the other hand, StarkEX users (dYdX, Immutable, etc) are indeed getting an airdrop.
Stay tuned for more news on this front - we will probably get some updates when the token becomes tradable.
4/9
This campaign is a good way to generate organic activity on-chain and to get to know Starknet protocols.
Argent will be giving 8 NFTs for 8 weeks, 1 per week.
First week was until May 9. However, since the network was slow, they extended the deadline to today 23:59 🚨
5/9
WEEK 1
To get the first NFT:
1. Install Argent X extension: 🔗 chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/argent-x/dlcobpjiigpikoobohmabehhmhfoodbb
2. Bridge ETH to Starknet: 🔗 starkgate.starknet.io (or use Orbiter)
3. Make (1) transaction on Starknet Mainnet using Argent X (make a swap @10KSwap, use @Orbiter_Finance, etc)
6/9
WEEK 1
Argent extended the deadline so users can get the first NFT if they interact today.
There's still time - deadline is Thursday 11 May 23:59 UTC.

7/9
WEEK 2
Starting yesterday, there is time until May 16 23:59 UTC to also complete week 2.
To get the second NFT:
1. Play the game in: 🔗 starkfighter.xyz
2. Get a .stark domain for free here: 🔗 xplorer.starknet.id
3. Submit your score (tweet required)
8/9
NFTs cannot be minted yet.
They will share a link for users to mint the NFT after the snapshots are taken, so stay tuned.
Once there's news about the mint page, or week 3 tasks, I will update.
These tasks are not capital-intensive, it's a great opportunity to interact.
9/9
🏛️ You can delegate your future $STRK tokens to olimpio.eth in advance: 🔗 https://delegate.starknet.io/profile/olimpio.eth#statement
(ETH Mainnet txn required)
I was chosen to be one of the recipients of the Starknet Foundation's voting power ⚡️
I'll update
