Argent announces discontinuation of support for zksync Era to focus on Starknet

Odaily news wallet service provider Argent stated in an open letter to users that after six months of alpha phase testing and careful consideration of user feedback, it has decided to stop supporting zksync Era and focus on Starknet. Argent said: “We believe in the huge potential of Starknet and therefore want to prioritize the development of products to support its ecological growth. Starting on January 31, 2024, we will begin to gradually reduce support for the zkSync Era and will no longer continue to support it. It builds new features. Although this will not affect the security of users accounts, users will perceive a significant performance decrease because we will cut back-end infrastructure services. Argent concluded: We strongly recommend that users as soon as possible Transfer their assets on zkSync Era from Argent to another zkSync Era-enabled wallet, such as Metamask, and if users still want to save assets through Argent, they can use the LayerSwap cross-chain bridge to bridge them to Starknet or Ethereum mainnet.”
