Starknet will debut decentralized sequencing in September and advance plans for decentralized validation under SNIP-33, aiming for full decentralization in v0.15.
The Starknet community has approved the v0.14.0 upgrade, launching on September 1, 2025, to introduce multi-sequencer architecture, Tendermint consensus, and an EIP-1559-based fee market. This date will also mark the start of decentralized sequencing, with the network’s next priority being decentralized validation. The SNIP-33 proposal outlines initial plans for validation decentralization, addressing technical challenges, node cost control capped at $1,000 per month, and reward distribution while maintaining network performance. Community participation is encouraged to refine the plan ahead of Starknet v0.15, which targets full decentralization.
