Layer-2 Network Starknet Gets Ethereum Virtual Machine With Zero-Knowledge Proofs

“This is a great sign of Starknet’s growth and maturity,” said the CEO of StarkWare, Eli Ben-Sasson, in a statement to CoinDesk. “Starknet dared to be different, and use the powerful Cairo language, instead of Solidity. At the same time, some developers want the zkEVM approach, and for that reason, this is excellent news for the network.”
