Starknet Update Roadmap: Short-term focus has shifted to reducing fees
Ethereum Layer 2 network Starknet has released its latest roadmap and stated that with the steady increase in demand for Ethereum blob, the project's short-term focus has shifted to reducing costs.
According to the roadmap, Starknet plans to launch Phase 1 of the STRK staking in November this year, which will further advance its decentralization process, unlock new use cases for STRK tokens, and expand new business use cases on Starknet. Secondly, Starknet plans to implement "stateless compression" and "squash-pricing" in version v0.13.3 in December this year to reduce network costs. Next, Starknet plans to continue to reduce costs by implementing "stateful compression" in version v0.13.4 in February 2025, which will improve devX by supporting try/catch mode, and introduce L2 gas as a protocol-level resource to encapsulate all L2 native computing, storage, and bandwidth without coupling with L1 resource markets. In addition, Starknet plans to implement 2-second blocks, memory pools and fee markets, and other TBD features in version v0.14.0 in April 2025.
