The Starknet Foundation has announced an aggressive expansion of its flagship 'DeFi Spring' liquidity incentive initiative, directing millions of $STRK tokens directly to active liquidity providers and borrowers across the network.
Key beneficiaries of the latest allocation round include Ekubo (Starknet's dominant concentrated AMM), AVNU DEX aggregator, and Nostra money market. Users supplying stablecoins and liquid staking assets into qualifying pools receive dual yields—earning standard protocol APR alongside direct, bi-weekly STRK claims.
With Starknet's transaction gas fees reduced by over 90% following Ethereum's Dencun blob-space upgrade, on-chain activity on Cairo-native dApps has surged. Foundation representatives emphasized that continuous on-chain engagement remains a core metric for ongoing community recognition programs.
