What would settle it: A verified seven-day STRK/USD price history from a market data provider such as CoinGlass or CoinMarketCap covering the relevant window.
What to make of it
Treat the existence and timing of Starknet's Layer 1 consideration, the quantum-resistance target, and the October 15 token unlock as established; the size of STRK's seven-day gain (116.7% vs. more than 80%) is unresolved and should not be cited as a precise figure until the underlying price data is checked.
