All the latest news and key insights you need from Starknet
Starknet is a decentralized Layer 2 scaling solution built on top of Ethereum that leverages ZK-Rollup technology to deliver high throughput, low gas fees, and enhanced scalability — without compromising on security or decentralization. Developed by StarkWare, Starknet uses STARK (Scalable Transparent Argument of Knowledge) proofs to bundle thousands of transactions off-chain and post a single proof on-chain, significantly reducing Ethereum’s workload. It aims to make Web3 applications faster, cheaper, and more efficient, while inheriting Ethereum’s trustless security.
Ethereum’s popularity brought network congestion and high gas fees. Users and developers faced a tradeoff between decentralization and performance. Starknet was created to address this by offering:
$STRK is the native utility and governance token of the Starknet ecosystem. It is designed to support decentralized operation and align incentives across stakeholders. Its key functions include:
Starknet alpha mainnet launched, enabling developers to build on a live Layer 2 ZK-rollup with low-cost scalability.
The STRK token contract was deployed with a capped supply of 10 billion, laying the foundation for future incentives and governance.
Starknet distributed 700 million STRK tokens to over 1.3 million wallets through its 'Provisions' airdrop.
Starknet transitioned to a full proof-of-stake model with governance and staking via STRK holders.
