$STRK · Starknet wants its own chain before quantum arrives

At 06:16 UTC on October 9, 2026, STRK traded at $0.0682, up about 40% in 24 hours and about 120% in 30 days. Bitcoin was nearly flat.

Why: on October 8, Starknet said it is actively considering becoming its own Layer 1, to be the first fully quantum resistant network by 2027.

The example: Starknet already runs on STARK proofs, built on hash based math. But as a Layer 2 it leans on Ethereum, which targets full quantum resistance only by late 2029, per StarkWare's CEO.

The other side: this is a proposal, not a decision. It needs governance approval, futures volume ran about 5x spot, and STRK still sits about 98% below its $4.41 peak.

Quantum narrative. Real roadmap. Heavy leverage. Watch all three.

NFA.
