📢 StarX Network – Community Q&A Answers 🚀 Thank you to everyone who submitted questions. Here are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions: ❓ How many STRX tokens have been mined so far? ⛏️ Around 48M STRX have been mined so far. Currently, around 30K users are active. We have also started the STRX slashing mechanism for inactive accounts. Slashed STRX will return to the mining pool and can be distributed through the mining system. ❓ Will STRX have a 1:1 distribution? If the total mined STRX does not exceed the available mining allocation before TGE, the current plan is to maintain a 1:1 distribution. Further details will be provided closer to TGE. ❓ Has StarX Network undergone an audit? The project has not yet completed a formal audit. We plan to undergo an audit with a professional third-party audit firm once we get closer to the listing phase. The audit firm will be announced once the audit process is confirmed. ❓ When will TGE happen? 📅 We are currently targeting December 2026 for TGE. However, the exact timing will depend on market conditions and whether the project is ready for the TGE and listing process. We will provide the confirmed date through an official announcement. ❓ What happened to the CoinMarketCap listing? Our first CoinMarketCap submission was rejected. We plan to submit StarX Network again once the required information and conditions are ready. We also plan to pursue a CoinGecko listing. ❓ When will the StarX Network team be revealed? 👥 We currently plan to reveal the team after the listing. More information regarding the team will be shared at the appropriate stage. ❓ Why was the StarX Network staking launch moved from September 17? 🔒 The staking launch was originally planned for September 17. However, due to additional security checks and related technical issues, we decided to take additional time to ensure the feature is properly prepared before releasing it to the community. The new planned release date for staking is September 28, 2026. We believe it is better to take additional time for security and testing rather than rush the launch. ❓ Where will staking rewards come from? 🔒 STRX used for staking rewards will come from the Community Pool. ❓ Which exchanges will StarX Network list on? We are currently in discussions with multiple exchanges. Specific exchange names will only be announced once agreements are finalized. ❓ Could you please provide information about the utility of the StarX coin? 🪙 We are currently working on expanding the utility and use cases of STRX within the StarX ecosystem. We are also working on something related to STRX utility that we plan to announce very soon. We don't want to reveal the details before everything is finalized, but more information will be shared through an official announcement once it is ready. We appreciate everyone who continues to ask questions and provide feedback. Transparency and clear communication with our community remain important as we move toward TGE and listing. More updates will be shared through our official channels. 🚀 — StarX Network Team

📢 StarX Network – Official Staking & P2P Update We are pleased to announce that Staking is scheduled to launch on StarX Network on September 17, 2026. 🔒 This marks another important step in the development of the StarX ecosystem, providing the community with an additional way to participate in the network through their STRX holdings. 🔒 Staking – Launching September 17 The Staking feature is currently in the final stages of preparation and is scheduled to go live on September 17, 2026. Further information regarding available staking options, rewards, eligibility, and participation requirements will be announced closer to the launch date. We encourage the community to follow our official channels for the latest updates and detailed information. 🤝 P2P – Currently Under Discussion We are also currently exploring the development of a P2P feature for the StarX ecosystem. At this stage, P2P has not been officially confirmed for release. The feature remains under discussion and evaluation, including considerations related to technical implementation, security, and overall ecosystem requirements. As development progresses, the scope and functionality may be modified, the timeline may change, or the feature may ultimately not be released. An official announcement will only be made once the feature has been thoroughly reviewed and a confirmed release decision has been made. 🚀 Looking Ahead Staking is one of several developments currently being worked on as we continue expanding and improving the StarX ecosystem. We have additional updates and developments planned, and we look forward to sharing more information with the community in the coming weeks. Thank you for your continued trust, patience, and support as we continue building StarX Network. Stay tuned for further announcements.
