Retrodrop StarkNet

StarkNet is a decentralized Validity-Rollup (also known as "ZK-Rollup") without permissions. It operates as a L2 network over Ethereum, allowing any dApp to achieve unlimited scale for its computation - without compromising Ethereum's composite and security, thanks to the fact that StarkNet relies on the most secure and scalable network. The last words in that sentence are,unfortunately, unbelievably trivial, but that doesn't matter, what matters is that these guys are offering a really cool technology that will have a demand.

The founder of the project is the co-founder of Zcash, namely Eli Ben-Sasson, that's a name if anything, not a set of letters. The project's token was announced July 13, 2022. 9% of the total offering has already been given to users and programmers who have created dApps on StarkNet. The token will officially go on the market in 2023, no more precise date was given. What does that suggest? That it's about the right time to retrotect the project, which some guys are overlooking.

You can learn more about the project by exploring their blog.

1.Installing a Wallet

Argent - The first wallet for StarkNet.
Braavos - I use this wallet. It's faster and safer. I advise you to install it. Create a password, save the sid-phrase, select Mainnet Alpha. Done

2.Transferring ETH to StarkNet

<1>First, let's go through the mainnet projects, because the probability of getting a drop for interacting with mainnet is much higher. After we look at projects in the mainnet - we will tell you about projects in the test network.

Starkgate - The official bridge from the Starkware team. I advise you to use it for transfers, because it is an official bridge and it will increase your activity in the network. Go to the bridge;
Connect Metamask and Braavos Wallet;
Enter the amount and click "Transfer";

Wait for the end of the transaction.

Done.
