End of year is coming and with it Starknet v0.13.3!
Alongside the awesome features of Cairo-native, graceful failures, and L2 gas, there are also some breaking changes.
This tweet is your monthly reminder to act on them 🫵
1️⃣ ERC-20 Event Structure Changes
The new OpenZeppelin ERC20 standard introduces a new event structure: from/to & owner/spender fields are now indexed!
For more information: https://t.co/kDYTfQ2mO6
Emission of events with the old structure will cease.
For a smooth transition, we encourage apps, block explorers, indexers, and other devs in the community to support both event structures ASAP!
2️⃣ Termination of RPC versions <v0.7
Starknet full nodes will only serve RPC versions v0.7 and above. Make sure you consume an up-to-date version.
3️⃣ Wallet ⇄ DApp API Changes
After an extensive community effort, the Starknet Wallet<>Dapp API is receiving a significant update and a new starknet-js version.
The new API breaks the coupling between wallets, DApps, and Starknet.js versions, allowing for faster development.
🫵 When should I update my dApp?
Be ready for the Starknet v0.13.3 upgrade (planned for end of year). From this version, full nodes will only support RPC v0.7+. Ensure you're using starknet-js version ≥6.9.0 or upwards.
🫵 Is migration hard?
Not at all! Simply use the new WalletAccount instead of Account; Starknet-js takes care of the rest.
2-sec tx waiting time, ~400 TPS capacity, ultra-low gas fees, with many more optimizations coming over time 👨🔬
With our stack now ready for mass-scale apps, it's the perfect time to dive into @StarkWareLtd's (Starknet's main contributor) vision with @EliBenSasson.

Just a friendly reminder of what's coming before the end of this year: > STRK staking phase 1: with a permissionless staking protocol and stake > Starknet v0.13.3: notably featuring Cairo-Native for more network optimization > @KakarotZkEvm Mainnet: bringing the EVM to Starknet
Starknet has always placed great importance on decentralization; as such we are proud to be the first to introduce staking on L2.
While Starknet’s transition to a fully decentralized PoS network will take some time, the first phase of staking has already begun and will be complete during this year:
✅ STRK staking contract (btw an audit contest is currently running around this contract: https://t.co/I10f8kgAvV) ✅ Community governance about the STRK staking parameters (below are the figures at launch, resulting from this vote) ⏳ Testnet of the first phase (Q4 2024) ⏳ Mainnet of the first phase (Q4 2024)
Leveraging @HerodotusDev storage proofs, @SnapshotLabs, powering 96% of DAO governance, has chosen Starknet to buidl Snapshot X, a fully onchain governance protocol.
Why, how, what... join us tomorrow w/ @immutbl & @0xmarcello to learn moar!
The future of gaming is here, and you have the chance to shape it 🤌
Next week, @ohayo_dojo's Residency Program will unveil the next generation of fully onchain games; and you definitely don't want to miss it.
After two years of relentless development, the Dojo engine is ready to accelerate gaming on Starknet.
The first wave of Dojo-powered games is already emerging, and it’s up only from here.
This year alone, over 5 games built on Dojo are launching on Mainnet, with more than 30 developers and 15 studios leveraging it. Notable games include @LootSurvivor, Eternum (by @LootRealms folks), Dark Shuffle, @JokersOfNeon, with many more on the way.
On September 25th, the next cohort of games will be presented, and everyone is welcome; devs, builders, focg maxis, press, investors, degens... By participating, you’ll get early access, and the chance to shape the future of these games!
📍 Where: Cartridge Offices, Dock 72, Brooklyn Navy Yard, NYC 🗓️ Wen exactly: Wednesday, September 25, 5:00 PM - 9:00 PM EDT
