<p><a href="https://defillama.com/chains" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum has seen no shortage of scaling solutions</a> in 2023 and here to mix things is Starkware’s new zero-knowledge scaling solution, Starknet. OpenOcean has already rolled out support for trading on Starknet, introducing the best capital efficient trading experience on the brand new Ethereum Layer-2 by Starkware.</p><h2 id="header-0"><strong>Introducing Starknet Mainnet: </strong></h2><p><a href="https://www.starknet.io/en" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Starknet</a> is a permissionless decentralised validity rollup, or ‘zk-rollup’ built on the Ethereum network and utilises zkSTARK technology. The main aim of Starknet is to ultimately improve on Ethereum’s scalability and efficiency whilst pushing the boundaries of developer imagination. Starknet is not currently developing for EVM compatibility and so to deploy smart contracts on Starknet, developers need to learn <a href="https://www.cairo-lang.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Cairo</a>, a programming language built for STARK provable programs by StarkWare. ZK-STARKs are more scalable in speed and size than ZK-SNARKs (like zkSync and Polygon zkEVM) with potential for up to ten-times faster TPS. </p><h2 id="header-1"><strong>The first DEX Aggregator on Starknet:</strong></h2><p>OpenOcean has long since held the goal of being the widest reaching aggregator in the crypto space which is why, following the guidance of the community, OpenOcean has launched aggregation services amongst the deepest and more secure liquidity pools on Starknet. By integrating <a href="https://www.jediswap.xyz/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">JediSwap</a>, <a href="https://www.myswap.xyz/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MySwap</a>, <a href="https://sithswap.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SithSwap</a> and <a href="https://10kswap.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">10kSwap</a>, aggregation services will support all levels of user-efficient trading from individuals to projects. As time progresses OpenOcean will continually source and index deep liquidity pools from new platforms that will help bolster the on-chain capital efficiency of aggregated swaps.</p><p></p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/daed1fb27e534a4faff1012ee3cabe89.jpg" /><p></p><p><strong>“Scaling has been the primary challenge that this ecosystem has been fighting with over the past several years. We believe that version 12 brings with it this Quantum Leap — in fact, there are a whole series of leaps that will roll out through the summer we’ll go through. But we are already in the triple digits for transactions per second.”Uri Kolodny, Starkware co-founderThe team behind Starknet</strong></p><p>Founded by Uri Jolodny and Eli Ben-Sasson, <a href="https://starkware.co/starkware-labs/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Starkware</a> is the 2018 Israeli parent company behind both Starknet and StarkEx. StarkEx is the other Layer-2 SaaS they’ve released that also uses STARK proofs to offer mass application scaling. <a href="https://blog.bingx.com/new-launch-analysis/what-is-starkware-starknet-starkex-team-and-tokenomics/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Their main goal, as well as progressing ZK-STARK technology, is to improve the scalability and privacy of blockchains, such as Ethereum</a>, for everybody.</p><p></p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/aabe35a872704c988df19dd3c1597ee2.png" /><p></p><h2 id="header-2">The OpenOcean API is now accessible on Starknet!</h2><p>We are thrilled to unveil our robust <a href="https://docs.openocean.finance/dev/aggregator-api-and-sdk" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">API</a>, which is now at the disposal of everyone on Starknet.
