StarkWare Launches Starknet Proofs for Up to 1.1 Billion L2 Gas

StarkWare has introduced block-sized proofs on Starknet Mainnet, letting applications cover computation of up to 1.1 billion L2 gas with a proof submitted in one transaction.

Developers can run complex logic offchain, then submit a proof for Starknet to check. Under the launch model, developers pay for the proof rather than the full execution.

Starknet is an Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution. The feature separates where application logic runs from where its proof is verified: computation can take place offchain, with Starknet checking the proof on its mainnet.
