Starknet opens a consultation on a possible post-quantum L1
On October 15, a proposal was posted on the Starknet forum to explore an independent Layer 1 network with a post-quantum security focus. The consultation is active but non-binding: it gauges support for investigating this possibility.
Voting began on October 15 at 09:32 UTC and is scheduled to close on October 22 at the same time. A favorable result would not, by itself, authorize a transition. Any decision to move from L2 to L1 would require a specific governance process.
The proposal would keep STRK as the token and rule out creating another one. It also states that bridges from Ethereum would remain open. These are conditions of the proposal, not evidence that a new architecture is already operational.
It is important to distinguish three steps: consulting the community, studying a technical solution, and approving its implementation. This vote concerns the first step. The post-quantum goal does not demonstrate comprehensive protection today or set a migration date. Assessing dependencies and security risks would remain part of the work ahead.
Market snapshot: at 17:38 UTC on October 15, Binance spot showed STRK at 0.09316 USDT (+23.07% over 24 hours) and ETH at 2,445.54 USDT (+0.35%). This move does not show that the consultation is its sole cause or predict its outcome. A price increase does not eliminate technical or execution risks.
