# Starknet (STRK)

{% hint style="warning" %}
This protocol is in the process of being decommissioned by Kiln before the end of Q1 2026.\
\
Kiln is shutting down some protocols as part of a broader effort to streamline our focus and deliver more value to our customers. This means simplifying our offering and tightening our listing criteria to prioritize higher-revenue chains, and focusing on those with the strongest customer demand.
