The announcement followed similar releases from several of StarkWare&#8217;s competitors\u2014other layer-2 blockchains that scale Ethereum&#8217;s capacity by offering users side lanes to transact quickly and cheaply.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>StarkWare, founded in 2018, was one of the first layer-2 scaling solutions to adopt ZK cryptography \u2014 an encryption technique that&#8217;s rapidly become one of the core technologies undergirding many next-generation blockchains. Compared to &#8220;optimistic&#8221; layer-2 networks \u2014 the rollup technology used by most Ethereum scaling chains \u2014 ZK-based chains like StarkWare are viewed as more advanced and secure, albeit more difficult to build, more expensive and harder to scale to generalized use cases.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom now on, projects will be able to build app-chains using the gold-standard ZK-STARK cryptography with the ease and low cost that has only been possible with optimistic rollups,\u201d StarkWare co-founder and CEO Eli Ben-Sasson said in a statement shared with CoinDesk.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The SN stack has various options meant to cater to different kinds of developers. According to a press release shared with CoinDesk, \u201cdevelopers can choose between Madara, an open-source and modular framework built for flexibility, Dojo, optimized for gaming and on-chain applications, or the StarkWare Sequencer, which provides the full, high-performance infrastructure of public Starknet.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coindesk.com\/tech\/2023\/07\/19\/starkwares-starknet-stacks-could-add-to-growing-field-of-blockchain-in-a-box-offerings\" target=\"_blank\">StarkWare\u2019s \u2018Starknet Stacks\u2019 Could Add to Growing Field of Blockchain-in-a-Box Offerings<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Appchains are launching on Starknet, the layer-2 blockchain on Ethereum known for its embrace of zero-knowledge (ZK) cryptography.
