Starcoin 4th Anniversary: Adapt to Evolve, Build with Value

How do you keep building in a world that constantly changes?

In an industry shaped by narratives and driven by trends, it’s never easy to keep building or to stay committed to long-term value. Markets rise and fall. Hype comes and goes. But at Starcoin, we’ve made a different choice: to adapt in change, and evolve through building. Real contributions — the kind that solidify blockchain infrastructure — deserve time, conviction, and belief.

Today, as we celebrate Starcoin’s fourth anniversary, we reflect on a journey through cycles of volatility and growth. And we invite you to continue walking this path with us, toward a future built on lasting value.

Four Years of Building: Evolving through Adaptation

Since 2019, Starcoin has shifted from early explorations of Layer 2 to building a fully decentralized, programmable public financial infrastructure. Throughout market fluctuations, our focus has remained on developing scalable, secure, and decentralized blockchain foundations.

In 2021, Starcoin launched its mainnet, deployed the first dApp in the Move ecosystem, and initiated on-chain governance through DAO.

Between 2022 and 2024, we released core projects like Starswap and delivered major performance improvements — achieving 17,000 TPS in testing and laying the groundwork for scalable adoption.

In 2025, we will introduce a dual-VM architecture, further enhancing flexibility and scalability to support more diverse applications.

Alongside this, the release of Starcoin 2.0, powered by FlexiDAG, TurboSTM, and modular VM design, will continue pushing the limits of performance. We’re also developing StarStack, a modular blockchain builder framework tailored for businesses, studios, and developers — helping them deploy blockchain applications efficiently and bringing Web3 technology into practical use.

The Power of the Community and Builders

At Starcoin, the real strength lies in the builders. Our core engineers — each with over 15 years of experience — have dedicated themselves to blockchain, distributed systems, and cryptographic research. They’re not just writing code; they’re laying the groundwork for what financial infrastructure could become.

But we haven’t walked this path alone. Over the last four years, our developers, contributors, and community have grown with us. From experimentation to live deployment, from proposals to governance, their efforts have helped shape the value architecture that Starcoin stands on today.

Looking Forward: Evolving with the Industry

We didn’t wait for the next cycle — we kept building through it. The launch of Starcoin 2.0 marked a leap in performance, but it’s just the beginning. As the industry continues to shift, we remain open: no fixed assumptions, no rigid paths.

We’ll keep refining our core — enhancing scalability, performance, and security — while remaining adaptive to new demands and challenges.

The combination of Modular PoW and Move VM offers developers, users, and enterprises a foundation that is flexible, robust, and always evolving. Our focus isn’t on fleeting trends — it’s on foundational questions:

  • How can we protect decentralization without sacrificing scalability?
  • How do we ensure meaningful security in programmable systems?
  • How can infrastructure truly support the next wave of Web3?

The next window of opportunity is forming. The value of infrastructure is often forged quietly — long before the wave arrives.

Starcoin might be a bridge. It might be a cornerstone. But it belongs to those who can see through the noise — and are willing to build before it’s popular.

Adapt to Evolve. Build with Value.

This journey is yours, too.
