Starknet is actively considering a transition into a Layer 1 blockchain, with a stated goal of becoming the first fully quantum-resistant network by 2027, according to a Techub report citing CoinPedia. The update points to a strategic change in how the project sees its long-term architecture and security posture.
Starknet co-founder Eli Ben-Sasson said two threats are drawing closer: quantum computing and the acceleration of AI. In his words, those risks mean the team needs to move into a "fortress mode." The report did not provide further technical details on how the proposed transition would be carried out, but it framed the possible Layer 1 move as part of a broader effort to prepare for those challenges.
The statement places quantum resistance at the center of Starknet’s 2027 roadmap. No additional implementation timeline, product specifications, or network design details were disclosed in the source brief.
