A non-binding Starknet governance poll closed with 93.52% of voting power supporting research into whether the network could become an independent, post-quantum-secure layer-1 blockchain. The Starknet Foundation clarified that the decision authorizes researchers to study the proposal but does not permit a migration to begin. A research group involving StarkWare and the Starknet Foundation will examine technical trade-offs, including asset bridging, data availability, the role of existing validators and applications, and any potential loss of security or liquidity benefits tied to independence from Ethereum. No launch date or economic redesign has been approved, and the vote does not mean that Starknet is already immune to post-quantum threats.
