Unlimited Scale

Starknet utilizes the power of STARK technology to ensure computational integrity. By validating off-chain transactions with advanced math and cryptography, Starknet overcomes Ethereum’s scalability limitations. Starknet is a Validity Rollup that provides unlimited scale while retaining Ethereum’s security and decentralization.

Superior UX

Starknet offers efficient and user-friendly experiences by employing Native Account Abstraction. All accounts are smart accounts: their behavior is determined by their developers rather than at the protocol level. This means unparalleled flexibility in account management. Developers can customize their applications beyond protocol constraints to elevate user experience and security.

bitcoin++ is scaling

Why scaling?

“Can bitcoin scale?” It’s a question we’ve been asking since the project launched in 2009. With dozens of new layer-twos popping up and more users joining the network, Bitcoin is bigger than it’s ever been. How much bigger will it go? In this three-day event in Istanbul, we’ll dive deep into BitVM and the frontier of zero-knowledge proofs, to explore not just where Bitcoin is but where it could be a decade from now. Join us in Istanbul this coming September for a deep dive into the forefront of scaling peer-to-peer exchange, both on-chain and off.
