Decentralizing Decision Making
summary
Claim: Snapshot plus StarkNet verifies on‑chain token balances using storage proofs and Ethereum state roots stored once, so votes cast off‑chain are aggregated and verified on StarkNet then reported trustlessly to L1, cutting per‑vote gas to a negligible amount and removing expensive governance checkpoints. Built as a backward‑compatible pipeline (supports secp256k1/ECDSA), running on StarkNet alpha since June and slated for mainnet rollout by end of 2021, enabling free voting with on‑chain settlement and no token contract changes.
