In January, the StarkNet team deployed the Alpha v0.13.0 update, which opened up the ability to pay transaction fees with native tokens along with ETH.

“Future plans to distribute STRK to the community include discounts and initiatives from various special committees dedicated to DeFi, gaming, and more. More details will be provided at a later date,” the Starknet Foundation said in a statement.
