StarknetSTRK
The token of Starknet, a network that bundles Ethereum transactions and proves them with STARK proofs.
The short version
STRK pays fees, is staked and governs Starknet, a layer-2 network that processes transactions off Ethereum and proves them with STARK cryptography. StarkWare of Netanya, Israel, led by co-founder Eli Ben-Sasson, built it; the Starknet Foundation is in the Cayman Islands. On 22 Oct 2026 a non-binding poll backed researching a move to an independent, quantum-resistant layer-1 chain. On 31 Oct 2026 one STRK cost C$0.0633. From 31 Jul 2026 to 31 Oct 2026 its price changed +76.6% in Canadian dollars, and it was 98.9% below its all-time high of C$5.95 set on 20 Feb 2024.[1]
