Collision of two worlds imminent
Anthropic @AnthropicAI ❤️ zkSTARKs: In collaboration with @StarkWareLtd co-founder Prof. Alessandro Chiesa and other brilliant researchers, Anthropic just open sourced a zk STARK system for proving the integrity of LLM inferencing, bringing us closer to verifiable AI. As we said long ago (since 2018), zkSTARKs are the end-game: highest scale, best security (post-quantum). Now, also AI agile and supporting AI integrity. anthropic.com/research/prova…

starknet mentioned ↓ anthropic.com/research/prova…
anthropic’s flashprove uses zkSNARKs, the proofs that scale Starknet, to prove a 400B-parameter model wrote a response without revealing its weights ~110 tokens/sec on one H100, 19 MB proofs that check in seconds on a cpu verifiable AI is closer than we think.

2026 is definitely the year of the inferiority complex. 8,965,937 versions of this tweet.
Calling £126k "an enormous amount of money" is crazy. That's like 180k USD. I have a hard time wrapping my mind around how poor the Brits are.

something interesting just happened on @Starknet 👀 developer 0xjuno demonstrated post-quantum wallet migration on s Starknet Sepolia. the interesting part? > same wallet address, same funds. > ECDSA + Falcon-512 transaction succeeded. > ECDSA-only transaction was rejected. > 11 wallet account classes reportedly tested. It's still an unaudited testnet experiment, not a mainnet upgrade. but this is why Starknet's programmable accounts matter. security isn't just about protecting what exists today. It's about having the flexibility to adapt to tomorrow's threats. And Starknet is showing what that flexibility could look like. Built to Adapt.
Sam Altman (Founder OpenAI) has everyone talking about how fast AI is moving. meanwhile, @starknet is building for a future where blockchain need to do more than just process transactions. > scaling ethereum > programmable accounts and now > exploring post-quantum security. still early, but I'm bullish on the bigger picture. are you paying attention?

THE BLOCK: Starknet ethereum:0xca14007eff0db1f8135f4c25b34de49ab0d42766 holders overwhelmingly backed research into transitioning from an Ethereum Layer 2 to an independent, post-quantum Layer 1. More than 93.5% of voting power supported the proposal, with StarkWare targeting a draft whitepaper in November. Further governance approval would be required for the transition.

The Starknet community has voted to research whether Starknet should become an independent, post-quantum L1. Starting today, a joint @StarkWareLtd × @StarknetFndn working group will lead the research and publish a paper in the coming months.

THE BLOCK: Starknet is launching a seven-day, non-binding initial governance poll on whether to explore becoming an independent post-quantum Layer 1. A yes vote would trigger further research, followed by more detailed proposals and polls. A no vote would see post-quantum development continue on Starknet as an Ethereum Layer 2.

Listened this morning to @danboneh on @a16zcrypto talking about Lattice-based vs hash-based signatures security/usability tradeoffs, and how recursive proofs could fit in but they are complicated and we don't yet understand their theoretical security well enough. If only we had a company that deployed recursive proofs in production for years, is led by cryptographers, and built @Starknet , which allows you to choose your own signatures to best leverage your usecase, and is now also looking at solving PQS. Know someone like that? 👀
