Starknet has launched Bitcoin staking, allowing BTC holders to participate in their consensus for the first time, with BTC accounting for 25% of the consensus computing power. To increase flexibility, the unstaking period for STRK and BTC stakers has been reduced from 21 days to 7 days. After the announcement, STRK price rose more than 7%, hitting a high of $0.139 intraday. The upgrade aims to enhance liquidity and attract cross-chain DeFi activities.
