About Starknet
Starknet is a Validity Rollup Layer 2 solution that scales Ethereum by replacing heavy Layer 1 computations with lighter Layer 1 verifications. It uses STARK proofs, computed off-chain, to ensure the same level of security as Ethereum’s Layer 1. Starknet contracts are mainly written in the Cairo language, designed specifically for STARK proofs.
