StarkNet is an L2 blockchain developed by StarkWare based on ZK Rollup. Currently, its response speed is average, but the ecosystem has already reached a certain scale, and most projects have not issued their own tokens.
This article will guide you to understand StarkNet and participate in testing related projects to potentially receive future airdrops.
From the experience so far, there are often delays when writing contracts, so patience is required when participating in testing.
Background: StarkWare, StarkEx, StarkNet, STARK
StarkEx: This is an extension technology specifically applied to transaction scenarios, currently being used by several Ethereum projects including dYdX, ImmutableX, Sorare, and DeversiFi.
StarkNet: A general-purpose ZK Rollup extension network.
So what about STARK? This brings us to zkSync. We all know that zkSync and StarkNet are both based on ZK Rollup technology, but one of the main differences between them is the zero-knowledge proof technology they adopt:
SNARK (zkSync): Succinct Non-interactive Argument of Knowledge.
STARK (StarkNet): Scalable Transparent Argument of Knowledge.
