## Current Status and Metrics
Starknet's strk traded at $0.1190 on october 11, up 17.7% over 24 hours and 116.7% over seven days, with futures activity totaling $3.5 billion.
## Pending Migration Steps
Starknet currently uses ethereum for settlement and data availability but has not approved a migration, governance vote, validator model, or launch timetable for an independent network.
## Key takeaway

Starknet may switch from Ethereum to a standalone blockchain for quantum resistance by 2027, but no migration plan has been approved.
