1. STRK is the native gas token on Starknet, and a burn mechanism similar to Ethereumâs EIP-1559 is planned for future releases.
2. Starknet is actively transitioning into a fully decentralized network, secured by a custom PoS mechanism.
This isnât a promise, itâs already in motion:
- Staking v2 is live, marking the halfway point toward the final staking design on Starknet. Full decentralization of proving and sequencing is expected by H1 2026.
- Starknet v0.14.0 (coming in a few weeks) will introduce a distributed sequencer, the first step in decentralizing sequencing.
- STRK is the primary staking asset (75% STRK / 25% BTC soon). Over 12% of the supply is already staked.
- StarkWare has started staking (30M STRK on its own validator + 75M in delegation to external ones).
- The Starknet Foundation will begin staking by late August / early September through delegation
Obviously, STRK is also the governance token powering network upgrades and community decisions.
3. Yes, Starknet leverages Ethereum, the most decentralized and secure blockchain (alongside Bitcoin), to provide real, trustless security to our users.
