Starknet BTCFi Campaign

September 2025 to March 2026 | Ongoing Engagement

The Brief

Starknet needed coordinated creator distribution for a major ecosystem push. Not a one-off campaign, but a standing network they could activate on any timeline, without rebuilding outreach from scratch for every announcement. Castle served as their external KOL arm: a single point of contact handling everything from creator relationships to final delivery.

They built. We executed.

What We Did

  • Managed and coordinated a roster of 34 vetted crypto KOLs across global and Korean markets
  • Translated campaign objectives into creator-ready briefs aligned to each narrative moment
  • Matched KOLs to each initiative based on audience fit, content format, and topic relevance
  • Coordinated publishing around official announcements and ecosystem milestones
  • Tracked deliverables in real-time with zero internal overhead for Starknet
  • 8 content formats: threads, posts, long-form, videos, X Spaces, newsletters, retweets, shorts
