Starknet is a STARK‑based validity rollup where smart contracts are written in Cairo and executed off‑chain, with succinct proofs verified on Ethereum. The 2024 Madara sequencer supports parallel execution, and the ‘Quantum Leap’ upgrade reduced L1 calldata by 30 %. STRK token launched in February 2025, enabling slot auctions for sequencer decentralization roadmap.
The dYdX Chain is an app‑specific Cosmos chain that replaced the prior StarkEx L2, giving validators control over an on‑chain order book for perpetual futures. Traders retain familiar features like cross‑margin and isolated positions, and DYDX token holders secure the chain while receiving 100 % of protocol fees. Lambda architecture shards order processing across ABCI++ extensions for sub‑second latency.
