Bitcoin's biggest challenge is scalability. StarkWare has a vision to change that.

The concept of STARK scaling for blockchains was first introduced by @EliBenSasson at a Bitcoin conference in early 2013.

It's now time to scale Bitcoin with ZK-STARK, making it more accessible to everyone.

The overarching goal: to transform @Starknet to be a self-custodial decentralized L2 with full functionality over both Ethereum and Bitcoin.

For the First Time in History, a ZK Proof has been Verified on Bitcoin Signet!

Yesterday, we announced the successful launch of our Stwo Verifier on Bitcoin Signet.

Now, it's time to decrypt all the details 🤓

👇🧵 Image
In May, StarkWare, @weikengchen & @l2iterative teamed up to contribute a STARK verifier in Bitcoin script 👨‍🔬

The goal? To explore the use cases of OP_CAT 🐱🐺

If you don’t know why we’re talking about Bitcoin, here’s the context:
The result? We successfully verified a STARK proof on Bitcoin Signet using OP_CAT - a crucial step for Rollup and ZK scaling technology over Bitcoin 🕺

How? If you are a digger, keep scrolling 🥸

Account Abstraction is transforming crypto!

Say goodbye to seed phrases & hello to multi-factor authentication, plug-ins, fee payment in any token & more. 🔐

Welcome to the new era of simple & secure transactions.
Account Abstraction is a revolutionary new technology that enables users to have full control of their cryptocurrency, while making transactions as secure and simple as possible.
Rather than relying on cumbersome methods like seed phrases, which often become obsolete, Account Abstraction allows apps to build authentication features users are accustomed to, like face ID and pincodes, and multi-factor authentication.

Exciting news!

@Visa has been exploring the potential of blockchain and web3 technologies to enhance the payments experience for its users, using #StarkNet to do so.
To stay engaged and contribute to the technical development in the crypto ecosystem, the company has been deep diving into web3 infrastructure and blockchain protocols.
The interesting thing Visa explored was the potential of account abstraction (AA) for recurring autopayments.

The result:
Visa built an application on StarkNet using the @argentHQ wallet.

Scale 👏 rinse 👏 repeat - Recursion!

The SHARP prover switched on Recursion and hyper-scaling just became a reality!

Every proof of many txs can be rolled up with others into a single proof

What is it and how does it lead to better scaling, L3, and other improvements?
🧵
The usual STARK scaling process includes the following:
Off-chain:
1. Validate transactions’ correctness
2. Generate a proof for this validation

On-chain:
3. Verify this proof

So now we add recursion to the proving part and get magic!🎩
>>
Now, Recursive Proving goes like this:
Off-chain:
1. Validate transactions’ correctness
2. Generate a proof for this validation
3. (Add magic here🎩) Validate the proof and generate a proof for this validation. We can repeat this several times

On-chain:
4. Verify the final proof

It’s here. It’s happening.
#StarkGate Alpha is live on Mainnet.
✨🌉

You can move assets from Ethereum Mainnet to #StarkNet Alpha, and the other way around.

We urge you to read the following thread and to tread carefully👀
medium.com/starkware/star…
Both #StarkNet Alpha and #StarkGate Alpha are new and complex systems.

They have not been fully audited.
They are not battle-tested yet.
In their Alpha forms, we cannot guarantee StarkNet or StarkGate will not be buggy.
Be careful.🙏
Remember that this is an alpha version, and it is likely that transfer of assets to a non-alpha version will be required in the future.
