With StarkNet we have been working tirelessly to improve the performance of our network. It's a constant struggle to balance functionality with speed, but we are making progress.
Recently, we released StarkNet Alpha 0.10.2, which introduced parallelization to the transaction execution process. This was a big step for us and we are already seeing improved performance as a result.
But we are far from done. There is still so much work to be done, and we are constantly seeking new ways to optimize the network.
One thing that sets us apart from other L2 technologies is our use of validity rollups, which allow us to increase throughput without sacrificing decentralization.
L1 networks face the difficult challenge of trying to increase block size and gas limits, which can lead to centralization as only larger entities are able to run full nodes.
We are currently working on a Rust implementation for the Cairo virtual machine and a Rust re-implementation of the sequencer. These improvements will not only make the network faster, but they will also make it more secure and reliable.
It's a challenging and rewarding journey, but I am confident that with hard work and dedication, we will achieve our goals.
