Starknet Moves Toward Post-Quantum Layer 1 as Voters Back Ethereum Split

Starknet's community voted 93.52% in favor of researching a move away from being an Ethereum Layer 2 toward a potential independent, quantum-resistant Layer 1. The Starknet Foundation announced the result Thursday, framing it as a first formal step rather than a commitment to split. Traders should watch whether the research turns into an actual migration, which would reshape STRK's relationship to Ethereum and its security model.
