🌙 Daily Pick

$STRK: StarkNet is a permissionless decentralized Validity-Rollup (also known as a “ZK-Rollup”) operating as an Ethereum L2.

X: @Starknet
CA: 0xCa14007Eff0dB1f8135f4C25B34De49AB0d42766
Current Price: $0.2231
FDV: $2.23B

Bullish Outlook: Starknet’s bull case centers on rising BTC participation, strong staking demand, and emerging ZK privacy utilities. Its BTCFi initiative channels Bitcoin liquidity into STRK rewards, expanding demand beyond typical L2 use. While monthly unlocks pose sell pressure, rapidly growing staking helps offset it. With potential Zcash-style privacy features, Starknet could differentiate itself and attract capital seeking scalable, privacy-enabled DeFi.
