According to the team, anyone will be able to participate in staking on the blockchain. Validators will require a minimum of 20,000 STRK tokens ($9,610) to operate their nodes. Delegators must hold STRK tokens and will be able to choose a validator to delegate their stakes to.

The team also shared on X that “validators and delegators will be subject to a 21-day unstaking lockup period.”

StarkWare has recently moved away from solely focusing on the Ethereum layer-2 landscape, and has pivoted more of its research and development efforts to the Bitcoin ecosystem.
