According to PANews, StarkWare CEO and Zcash co-founder Eli Ben-Sasson recently shared insights from his first conversation with Strategy founder and executive chairman Michael Saylor on the X platform. The discussion centered on Starknet's mission to advance the Bitcoin economy and the topic of privacy.
Saylor expressed his belief that Bitcoin should not incorporate privacy features similar to those of Zcash, as this could provide sovereign states with a reason to ban it. Ben-Sasson disagreed, suggesting that it is possible to balance privacy protection while allowing key visibility.
The conversation also touched on OP_CAT, with Saylor expressing concerns about making changes too rapidly. Ben-Sasson countered this view, arguing that OP_CAT has been extensively debated and researched over the past decade, and further delays are unnecessary.#StarkWare #CEO #MichaelSaylor #Bitcoin #Privacy #Zcash #Starknet #OP_CAT #Blockchain #Crypto #Cryptocurrency #PrivacyConcerns #BTC #ZEC #STRK
🚀 Starknet to Deploy Latest Version with Temporary Downtime

According to ChainCatcher, Ethereum Layer 2 network Starknet announced on the X platform that its latest version, v0.14.1, will be deployed to the Starknet mainnet in a few hours. As part of this upgrade, the Starknet network is expected to undergo a brief maintenance downtime around 08:30 UTC (16:30 Beijing time), during which transactions on the mainnet will be temporarily halted.
The new version will enable faster block closure during periods of low activity and will implement the BLAKE hash function (SNIP-34).#Starknet #Ethereum #Layer2 #v0.14.1 #mainnet #downtime #maintenance #BLAKE #hashfunction #SNIP34 #blockclosure #STRK #ETH

🚀 Starknet Faces Mainnet Disruption Amid Ongoing Reliability Concerns
#Starknet #Ethereum #ZKRollups #Layer2 #MainnetDisruption #Blockchain #Crypto #DecentralizedFinance #SmartContracts #STRK #Outage #ReliabilityConcerns #Grinta #EthereumSecurity #CryptoNews #2025 #ETH
According to Cointelegraph, Starknet, a prominent Ethereum layer-2 network utilizing zero-knowledge (ZK) rollups, is encountering new mainnet disruptions as the project progresses into 2026. The Starknet team announced via an X post that the network was experiencing downtime, with engineers actively investigating the issue to restore full functionality swiftly. However, the root cause of the disruption was not immediately disclosed. At the time of reporting, the network had been down for over two hours.
Starknet operates as a ZK-rollup-based layer-2 solution, designed to batch transactions off-chain and submit cryptographic proofs to Ethereum. This approach aims to enhance throughput and reduce fees for smart contracts, decentralized finance, and gaming applications, while maintaining Ethereum's base-layer security. Despite the current network disruption, the STRK token price remained stable.
The recent incident is not isolated, as Starknet has faced a series of outages throughout 2025, raising concerns about its reliability. In September, a significant upgrade named Grinta (v0.14.0) resulted in prolonged mainnet disruption, halting block production and necessitating two chain reorganizations. This led to approximately an hour of activity being reverted and required users to resubmit affected transactions. Earlier in 2025, Starknet experienced a multi-hour outage linked to sequencer issues, with external trackers documenting several instances of slow or halted block creation during the year.
A Starknet incident report regarding the September event detailed that the Grinta-related downtime lasted around nine hours. The report identified a sequence of issues, including failures in Ethereum RPC providers and bugs affecting sequencer behavior, which prompted the team to commit to architectural changes and enhanced monitoring. A representative from Starknet informed Cointelegraph that efforts are underway to resolve the current incident.#Starknet #Ethereum #ZKRollups #Layer2 #MainnetDisruption #Blockchain #Crypto #DecentralizedFinance #SmartContracts #STRK #Outage #ReliabilityConcerns #Grinta #EthereumSecurity #CryptoNews #2025 #ETH
🚀 Starknet Releases Analysis on Recent Mainnet Outage
#Starknet #Ethereum #Layer2 #MainnetOutage #StateInconsistency #ExecutionLayer #ProofLayer #CrossFunctionCalls #Rollbacks #TransactionErrors #L1Finality #BlockReorganization #OnChainActivity #Downtime #Blockchain #Crypto #STRK
According to BlockBeats, Ethereum Layer 2 network Starknet has released an analysis report regarding the brief mainnet outage that occurred on January 11. The report identifies the cause of the incident as a state inconsistency between the execution layer (blockifier) and the proof layer. This inconsistency arose from a specific combination of cross-function calls and rollbacks, leading the execution layer to incorrectly record a rolled-back state, resulting in transaction execution errors. The affected transactions did not receive L1 finality confirmation.
The incident triggered a block reorganization, causing approximately 18 minutes of on-chain activity to be rolled back. This marks the second major disruption since 2025, with a previous outage in September caused by a sequencer vulnerability that led to over five hours of downtime and a rollback of about one hour of on-chain activity.#Starknet #Ethereum #Layer2 #MainnetOutage #StateInconsistency #ExecutionLayer #ProofLayer #CrossFunctionCalls #Rollbacks #TransactionErrors #L1Finality #BlockReorganization #OnChainActivity #Downtime #Blockchain #Crypto #STRK

Starknet has announced that voting is now open for STRK holders on the v0.14.2 upgrade proposal. According to Foresight News, the voting period will end on April 16. The proposed upgrade includes the introduction of SNIP-36, SNIP-37, and SNIP-13, and aims to enable protocol-level S-Two proof verification, significantly reducing costs for privacy use cases and zk-thread applications. Additionally, the upgrade seeks to adjust the storage economic model to more accurately reflect network resource usage while maintaining cost advantages for developers. The StarkGate token contract will also be upgraded to optimize ERC-20 event indexing, verification, and token handling. Other internal upgrades are planned to prepare for the decentralized verification phase described in SNIP-33, including improvements in P2P, weighted proposer sampling, and the concept of virtual proposers.#Starknet #STRK #v0.14.2 #SNIP36 #SNIP37 #SNIP13 #STwoProof #PrivacyUseCases #zkThread #StorageEconomicModel #StarkGate #ERC20 #P2P #DecentralizedVerification #SNIP33 #VirtualProposers
