The Ethereum Layer 2 network Starknet announced a significant move in its ecosystem: STRK holders can vote to introduce STRK staking on the mainnet for the first time.
Voting for STRK Staking Function
STRK staking will be the first to integrate a staking function into the Starknet platform, allowing users to affect its implementation. In an announcement shared on the X platform, Starknet pointed out that STRK holders would be called upon to vote for the proposed minting mechanism and the conditions for modifying its parameters. This would ensure participation and guarantee that the staking function runs according to the community's expectations and requirements.
STRK Holders to Influence Staking Mechanism
The exact time for the staking function deployment has yet to be discussed, but October is on the radar, as Starknet anticipates. To guide this process, the governance post presents an organized voting schedule.
Voting Schedule
The voting testing period will begin on September 2 and end on September 4, 2024, during which one can view and comment on proposals. Then, a formal voting period will be from September 9 to September 13, 2024. In the latter period, holders of STRK are called upon to vote for or against approving the staking function.
This voting will be a crucial step for Starknet, enhancing community participation in the development of the ecosystem and the introduction of new features.
