Around 10% of the network fees generated since the project’s launch, approximately 1,600 ETH, will be dedicated to supporting the Starknet ecosystem.

StarkWare is gearing up for a significant upgrade to Starknet, its Ethereum-based Layer 2 solution powered by the ZK-STARK cryptographic mechanism.

London's Herodotus, in collaboration with StarkWare, has launched an "on-chain accumulator" tool that lets users read and verify any part of Ethereum's history. This tackles Ethereum's current limitation of validating only the last 256 blockhashes. The tool uses "storage proofs," a cryptographic method, to confirm the validity of data. This could be a game-changer for creating permissionless account recovery systems and insurance protocols that rely on historical on-chain data.
