This Altcoin Rose More Than 50 Percent in a Single Day: It Hit Its 2026 High

Starknet (STRK) was one of the fastest-rising altcoins in the cryptocurrency market. With strong buying, the STRK price surpassed the $0.10 level, reaching as high as $0.1022 during the day. The altcoin's value increased by 55.69% in the last 24 hours, marking its highest level since 2026. The key development behind the rise was the possibility of Starknet evolving from a Layer-2 network running on Ethereum into an independent Layer-1 blockchain. StarkWare CEO Eli Ben-Sasson argued that Starknet needed to control its own security architecture to address potential security risks arising from quantum computing.
