We appreciate the risk all stakers took upon themselves, and solo stakers that couldn’t cash out in any form took a much larger leap of faith with Ethereum compared to their counterparts on staking pools or CEXes. Solo stakers do, however, have a cap per deposit address, while CEXes do not. That’s because we want to limit the allocation a single entity receives, especially since the classification provided by [rated.network](https://www.rated.network/?network=mainnet&view=pool&timeWindow=1d&page=1&poolType=all) is heuristic and might contain false positives. There were also validators that are not solo stakers, yet their identity is unknown. These validators may claim through the Provisions portal but receive the same allocation as staking pools of CEXes (while also adhering to the solo-staker category’s cap).

I’m receiving a prompt that says “your wallet is not up to date” or
“your account is not up to date.” 
* In this case, try the following:
* Make sure you’ve installed the latest versions of Chrome and all relevant extensions.
* If your wallet extension has been reset and you receive this message, your wallet should ask you to upgrade your account. Follow the wallet’s instructions.
* If the above doesn’t work, please contact us on [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/qypnmzkhbc) or [Telegram](https://t.me/+efDitGbILOFmMDNk).
The portal doesn’t offer my Ethereum wallet as a connection option.
* A guide on how to claim Provisions allocations directly from your Ethereum wallet will be published soon after claim opens.
ArgentX Wallet displays: “Account is deprecated - reach out for support.”

- label: "What is the reason for implementing Sybil-resistance mechanisms in the
Provisions allocation? "
body: >-
The Provisions program aims to empower those who contributed to the
advancement and achievements of Starknet. Such contributions may have
been made by users, developers, community members, and others.
Inauthentic interaction with the network, including the use of bots,
is not seen as a genuine contribution as it repeats the same action
multiple times, and not in a unique and natural manner. Such
interaction does not yield insights that will improve the network for
those who will later on interact with it in a genuine manner. 
Given that the STRK token will be used in governance votes, allocation needs to be based on genuine contribution, which includes authentic interaction with the network. The Provisions criteria, therefore, aim to exclude non-genuine interaction.
- label: What has been done to ensure Sybil resistance?
body: >-
For Starknet users, the Starknet Foundation has partnered with [Trusta
Labs](https://www.trustalabs.ai/) to provide Sybil-resistant lists of
users. 
For StarkEx users, the StarkWare team has provided the Starknet Foundation with a usage snapshot it took prior to the announcement of the Starknet tokens. The cut-off date for StarkEx users was June 1st, 2022, as stated in the Starknet Decentralization series ([Part 1](https://www.starknet.io/en/posts/governance/part-1-starknet-sovereignty-a-decentralization-proposal), [Part 2](https://www.starknet.io/en/posts/governance/part-2-a-decentralization-and-governance-proposal-for-starknet), and [Part 3](https://www.starknet.io/en/posts/governance/part-3-starknet-token-design)).

- label: Can Provisions recipients participate in Starknet governance votes?
body: Yes. Following Provisions, recipients will also be able to participate in
voting on various issues that will shape Starknet’s future.
- label: Can STRK tokens obtained as part of Provisions be delegated or
transferred to others?
body: >-
To use STRK on Starknet for governance, token holders must wrap their
STRK to vSTRK, a unique token solely dedicated to governance
processes.
vSTRK tokens on Starknet, and STRK tokens on Ethereum, can be delegated to others for governance purposes. This means a recipient can let someone else use the voting power of the tokens they received in order to participate in governance votes on their behalf.
- label: Can I stake STRK?
body: Not yet. Updates about staking STRK on Starknet after the network
transitions to a proof-of-stake (PoS) model will be shared in due
course.
- label: Will any major lockup periods for StarkWare employees and investors or
the Starknet Foundation end soon?
body: To align the long-term incentives of the core contributors and investors
of StarkWare with the interests of the Starknet community, and
following common practice in decentralized ecosystems, all tokens
allocated in previous allocation plans to core contributors and
investors will be released from lockup according to the schedule that
appears in the [STRK tokenomics
document](https://docs.starknet.io/documentation/architecture_and_concepts/Economics-of-Starknet).
