Starknet wants to go solo

The team said two days ago that it’s seriously considering no longer being a Layer 2 on Ethereum and instead becoming its own Layer 1 blockchain.

The reason? Quantum resistance. The goal is to build the first fully quantum-resistant network by 2027.

After the news broke, STRK surged nearly 50% on Binance Spot, but has now pulled back more than 10% from its peak.

Note that the exact wording was “considering”—nothing has been decided yet.

Put simply, the story has already sent the price up, but there’s still a long way to go before anything is delivered. I’m sitting this one out for now and will wait to see an actual plan.
