I truly believe Starknet has massive untapped potential but I feel that the current marketing efforts haven’t fully reflected the strength of the ecosystem.
Initiatives like DeFi Spring and Summer could have created significantly more momentum and narrative. Starknet has strong fundamentals and real opportunities to build hype around builders, community activity and ecosystem growth - but the communication and amplification haven’t matched that potential.
I’d love to see stronger community engagement, more consistent campaigns to grow interest and more cultural energy around the ecosystem. For example, encouraging meme culture, standout NFT projects, and native community driven narratives could help build identity and attention.
The foundation is strong. The opportunity is there. With more proactive storytelling and community activation, Starknet could position itself much more aggressively in the market.
Users need to wait close to 10 hours to recharge on the CEX platform before they can withdraw their funds freely. Until this problem is solved, any marketing will be of little use.
I don’t think a 7% APY is strong enough to attract new capital or new users into the ecosystem. Most likely, it mainly incentivizes existing STRK holders rather than bringing in fresh participants.
If the goal is growth, we may need more compelling mechanics or narratives that genuinely attract new users, not just reward the current base
I’ll spend a few days drafting a proposal on how I’d approach marketing strategy for Starknet. Would love to share it and get feedback from the community
