Starknet Weighs Leaving Ethereum to Become a Quantum-Resistant L1 by 2027

Starknet says it is “actively considering becoming an L1,” leaving Ethereum to become what it calls the first fully quantum-resistant network, with 2027 as the target. The announcement came as a post on X. StarkWare co-founder and CEO Eli Ben-Sasson has explained the plan, saying the network is weighing the exit.

AI take

Starknet's public weighing of an Ethereum exit marks a notable escalation in the L1-versus-rollup debate, with quantum resistance offered as the stated rationale rather than scalability or cost. The move would affect Starknet's security inheritance and its relationship with StarkWare, which has built much of its identity around Ethereum scaling. Whether this remains a floated option or becomes a formal roadmap, and how Ethereum's own quantum-resistance work progresses before the stated 2027 target, is the open question.
