In this episode of the Delphi Podcast, co-hosts Tom Shaughnessy and Medio Demarco discuss scaling Ethereum using StarkWare’s technology with guests Uri Kolodny and Eli Ben-Sasson, co-founders of StarkWare. The conversation covers the evolution of StarkWare’s tech stack, including zero-knowledge (ZK) roll-ups, Stark proofs, and their core programming language, Cairo.
StarkWare’s solutions aim to speed up blockchain computation by verifying proofs rather than executing transactions, enabling greater scalability for DeFi, gaming, and other Web3 applications.
The team outlines the development journey, challenges, and community-building efforts, including composability on StarkNet and the concept of Volition, which gives users transaction-level data security options. They also discuss building a supportive developer community, scaling issues both in tech and team-building, and StarkWare’s commitment to decentralization. The podcast concludes with insights on engaging with StarkWare’s ecosystem and where to connect for those interested in building on its platforms.
