What happened in the Starknet ecosystem

Starknet v0.13.0 update.

Starknet v0.13.0 is transitioning fromˀ testnet to mainnet. With Starknet 0.13, users can pay transaction fees in Starknet’s native token, STRK (once it becomes transferable). Starknet v0.13.0 also paves the way for upcoming features outlined in the roadmap, including Paymaster, Fee Market, and Volition Mode, etc.

Onchain games: The future of the Gaming Industry

Starknet shared an insightful thread delving into the fascinating history of on-chain gaming.

SHARP: Save Costs and Enhance Ethereum’s Scalability

SHARP (SHARed Prover) is designed to generate STARK proofs of aggregated Cairo programs, enabling any application to submit transactions using the same proof. Imagine UberPool but for STARK Proofs. This 'ride-sharing' dynamic ensures that even small apps can harness the immense power of STARK scaling.

Avail Collaborates with StarkWare

StarkWare is set to leverage Avail for scalable data availability in Madara-based appchains and L3s, furthering the vision of fractal scaling powered by validity proofs. The Starknet ecosystem can now harness Avail’s purpose-built DA layer to construct fast, high-throughput blockchains.

Introducing Devonomics

In collaboration with StarkWare, the Starknet Foundation is introducing Devonomics—an experimental pilot program designed to prioritize and empower Starknet developers. Devonomics will initially allocate over 1600 ETH (equivalent to $3.5M+ at the time of publication), representing 10% of all transaction fees accumulated until November 30, 2023.
