Leading layer-2 (L2) solutions provider StarkWare has announced that it will be making its software open-source. The total value locked across the L2 ecosystem has been climbing higher since the beginning of 2023.

On Feb. 5, layer-2 technology firm StarkWare revealed plans to make its Stark Prover software open source.

The Israeli-based company said the move will “boost accessibility to developers, promote collaboration within the community, and offer other benefits.”

The Prover is the engine used by the firm to roll up hundreds of thousands of transactions.

Eli Ben-Sasson, president and co-founder of Starkware, said, “we think of the Prover as the magic wand of Stark technology. It wondrously generates the proofs that allow unimaginable scaling.”
