The amount of staked STRK has climbed to a new all-time high, reflecting rising long-term optimism in Starknet, an Ethereum Layer-2 network. As of this week, over 1.1 billion STRK tokens have been locked into Starknet’s proof-of-stake (PoS) system, according to the data shared today on the X social media platform. That represents 23% of the entire STRK supply, which currently stands at 4.8 billion circulating supply. The new ATH represents one of the most important staking milestones since Starknet launched the service last year. The achievement is an improvement from the 900 million STRK tokens staked on Starknet three weeks ago, on November 15.
STRK Staking Boosting the Network’s Capital Efficiency
Last year, on November 26, 2024, Starknet launched its STRK staking infrastructure on its mainnet, a move that marked the platform’s commitment towards improving its network’s security, decentralization, and efficiency while promoting user participation in a democratically governed ecosystem. The staking service allows STRK holders to stake their tokens and, as a result, earn rewards.
Since the launch of staking, Starknet has experienced robust engagement from its community, with daily lock-ups ranging from hundreds to millions of dollars. The staking, which started on zero level on November 26, 2024, currently has over 1.1 billion STRK tokens locked up for staking mechanisms, a trend that demonstrates wide participation among holders. This remarkable increase showcases rising interest in Starknet’s staking mechanisms and the rewards it provides to customers to secure their tokens over time. This active staking points out enthusiasm in the platform’s long-term capability.
Market Implications and Community Sentiments
STRK is currently trading at $0.1128, down 0.14% and 14.6% over the past 24 hours and seven days, respectively, a reflection of bearishness in the broader crypto market. Three weeks ago, on November 15, 2025, the Starknet token surged by over 50% to trade at $0.23, marking one of its strong jumps following the move by token holders to stake 900 million STRK tokens on the platform, equivalent to 20% of the circulating supply. Today’s further increase in staked tokens demonstrates investor confidence in Starknet’s staking program, encouraging long-term holding.
