Starknet Opens Vote on Researching Independent Layer‑1 Move
Starknet, an Ethereum L2, announced a poll to research becoming a standalone L1 resistant to quantum attacks. CEO Eli Ben‑Sasson explained the rationale in a livestream, noting security concerns and potential proof‑of‑work or proof‑of‑stake designs. By Thursday, 422 wallets holding 272 M STRK voted, 99.9% in favor, though the poll lacks quorum and closes Oct 22. The vote outcome will inform a report due in weeks and a future design vote.
