Ronin Migrates to Ethereum Layer 2, Introduces New Proof-of-Distribution Model
Ronin has officially completed its migration to Ethereum, marking one of the biggest upgrades in the networks history. Its blockchain was originally created as a separate Ethereum sidechain for Axie Infinity, now a Layer 2 solution as part of the Ethereum ecosystem. Ronin. Is. Home. Migration to Ethereum complete ⚔ Five years ago, Ronin was a new Ethereum sidechain with a single game aboard: Axie Infinity. The move is actually a “homecoming” from Ronin to Ethereum and was announced directly from the Ronin team. The project says the migration enables Ronin to retain its gaming-centric infrastructure and leverage Ethereums security, scalability, and expanding Layer 2 infrastructure. The network will remain the same as before for users, but with improved security assurances and faster transactions based on Ethereum technology, said Ronin. Ronin Integrates With OP Stack Ecosystem Additionally, the migration also puts it within the OP Stack ecosystem. The network announced its partnerships with multiple infrastructure providers, such as Optimism, Conduit, Boundless, and EigenDA. Instead of the old model in which the chain was responsible for most of Ethereums security and transaction processing, it is now part of the operational engine, said Ronin. The team added that further enhancements will supplement ZK fraud proofs via Boundless Kailua, help increase
