StarkWare plans to release a draft whitepaper in November as it explores an independent, quantum-resistant blockchain.

Starknet’s community has voted to support research into becoming an independent, post-quantum layer-1 blockchain.

The network’s potential departure from Ethereum gained overwhelming support. The governance vote that ran for seven days closed on Thursday. The poll drew about 3,200 votes, with 93.52% of voting power in favor of the transition.

StarkWare and the Starknet Foundation have established a working group to examine the proposed transition and develop more detailed technical proposals.
