Figment is proud to support staking on Starknet, the first general-purpose Layer 2 rollup to introduce staking directly on L2. Institutional clients can now delegate STRK with Figment to participate in the network’s early staking phase and help shape the future of Ethereum scaling.
What is Starknet?
Developed by StarkWare, Starknet is a ZK-rollup built to scale Ethereum with fast, low-cost transactions using ZK-STARK proofs. It supports smart contracts written in Cairo, a custom programming language purpose-built for zero-knowledge systems.
As a Layer 2, Starknet inherits Ethereum’s security while enabling a permissionless, composable, and high-performance ecosystem.
Why Starknet Matters
Starknet is pioneering the next generation of Ethereum scalability with:
- ZK-native architecture that enhances privacy and efficiency
- First-of-its-kind L2 staking system
- A growing ecosystem of DeFi, gaming, and infrastructure dApps
- A phased decentralization roadmap, including governance via vSTRK and a future decentralized sequencer
With staking now live, STRK holders can contribute to network security and governance in the earliest stages.
Figment’s Role in Starknet
Figment now offers staking support for Starknet, allowing institutional STRK holders to delegate their stake with confidence. As the network evolves toward validator-driven operations, Figment ensures secure infrastructure, reliable uptime, and expert protocol support throughout the transition.
