Starknet Vote Backs Research Into A Post-Quantum Layer-1 Future

TL;DR: A non-binding Starknet governance poll ended with 93.52% supporting research into an independent post-quantum L1; no chain migration has been approved. Starknet's community has backed a potentially far-reaching research project, but not the actual move that would make it a different kind of blockchain. A non-binding governance poll closed Thursday with 93.52% of voting power supporting work on whether Starknet could become an independent, post-quantum-secure layer-1 network. The Starknet Foundation's account of the vote makes the limit explicit: it gives researchers a mandate to study the proposal, not permission to execute a migration. Why an Ethereum layer-2 is considering independence Starknet operates as a layer-2 network connected to Ethereum.
