Description

Starknet is a decentralized, permissionless, and censorship-resistant validity-rollup (also known as a ZK-rollup) that operates as a Layer 2 network over Ethereum. It enables dApps to achieve unlimited scale for their computation without compromising Ethereum's composability and security. Starknet utilizes the power of STARK technology to ensure computational integrity by validating off-chain transactions with advanced math and cryptography. It also offers efficient and user-friendly experiences by employing Native Account Abstraction, where all accounts are smart accounts, providing flexibility in account management. The Starknet ecosystem includes a variety of projects and tools such as crypto wallets, bridges, DeFi dApps, and block explorers. It supports developers with resources like the Cairo programming language, documentation, tutorials, and grants programs. The community is actively involved through governance, staking, and various online forums and groups.
