[Jihoz.ron @Jihoz_Axie]

Today's a day we've been building towards for years.

@Ronin_Network is officially an Ethereum Layer 2.

@VitalikButerin recently said that the era of generalized L2s is over. We agree.

Ronin was built for a very specific use-case. To scale Axie beyond crypto, to everyday people.

Over the years, it's become more than just the chain for Axie.

A crew formed. An alliance of games and apps looking to make crypto fun, accessible, and educational.

Today we've plugged Ronin back into Ethereum to become the most interesting, entertaining, and welcoming way for regular people to step into crypto.

We are Ethereum's gamification engine.

This is a full circle moment, and wouldn't be possible without the tireless, often thankless efforts of the @ethereum developer community, who've made it much much more sensible to run an L2 compared to an L1 or side chain.

When we created Ronin, L2s were just an idea. Today, blob fees are affordable. The tech and security is battle tested.

The benefits:

> By using Ethereum for security we no longer have to pay for our own security costs via inflation while inheriting the security of the largest smart contract platform ever created
> Much easier to tap into liquidity and shared network effects from Ethereum
> Reduced inflation and improved $RON tokenomics due to the costs we save on incentivizing network security
> Ronin is now 50% faster

Today we're also rolling out upgrades that make Ronin even more unique:

> The proof of distribution system is now live and operational, programmatically dispersing rewards to builders based on metrics that have been most correlated with $RON momentum in the past: https://t.co/OjYla5fZMk
> The Ronin treasury has been bolstered with new streams of value: 1.25% of all NFT volume on Ronin, all sequencer fees, and 90 M RON that was previously set aside for staking rewards
> We've rolled out a new landing page for welcoming participants to the ecosystem: https://t.co/2EAr4nlWjG

It's been a long journey. From the early days in the CryptoKitty community. From 30 users to millions. From Axie to an entire roster of games.

And somehow, it's clear to me: this is just one more step on a path that stretches many years ahead of us. We choose to move forward, not because it's easy, but because it's hard and if it works, we have a chance to make history. Again.

Ronin. Is. Home.

Migration to Ethereum complete ⚔

Five years ago, Ronin was a new Ethereum sidechain with a single game aboard: Axie Infinity.

Over the years, Ronin emerged as THE gaming chain, onboarding millions of players through more games like Pixels, Cambria, Angry Dynomites, and many others.

Today, we plugged our engine into the mothership: Ethereum.

Here’s what that means 🧵👇

[selombre @selombre]

Lunacian Lounge Recap: Vibeathon 91 game submission, Atia's Legacy's next playtest, Level 120 Axies and MORE! 🧵

[JaseTheWizard 🧙🏼‍♂️ @JaseTheWizard]

Work Log: What I did today working at
@SkyMavisHQ.

Mass Content Experiment: Final preparation for @AxieInfinity (starting next week). We're now at 78 pieces made in house by the team. It covers 5 platforms, with 10+ content formats to help attract and engage different target audiences.

Video Editing: A very long session for the latest Lunacian Lounge episode, now live on YouTube. It'll now get cut into 40+ unique clips. Last time, the clips pulled in over 2M views, so I'll report back on this one once they're all out - another reason to always apply content leverage.

Content & Support: Ronin Stash follow-up announcements to keep spreading awareness of the Waypoint migration.

Domain & Sitemap: Started reviewing @Ronin_Network's digital footprint and planning a domain and sitemap clean-up. The goal is to make it easier to onboard players, retain users and educate builders. This came at a request from key community members.

Team Meetings: Several, I can't share details on what they were about but they were energising and I hope to share more details soon.

Game Publishing: Sync'd with 4 new builders on campaigns to welcome them to Ronin, it starts off light on purpose to build trust between Players <> Ronin Eco <> New Game Team.

What I didn't get to finish today...

1. Playtesting some of the new games coming to Ronin.

2. Picking up a few gaming community NFTs I have my eye on.

I'll get to both in the next 48 hours.

[JaseTheWizard 🧙🏼‍♂️ @JaseTheWizard]

Almost ready.

46minutes. 8GB. Riddled with leeks.

Yes I added some that wasn't shown live.

⚠️ TODAY IS THE LAST DAY. MIGRATE YOUR WAYPOINT ACCOUNT BEFORE 16 OCTOBER OR YOU'LL LOSE CONTROL OF THE ASSETS IN IT. BYE BYE, SAYONARA.

Made a Mr. RONKE version. RONKE VS everyone.

@RonkeOnRon @RonkeMemeverse @Ronin_Network

[Jihoz.ron @Jihoz_Axie]

@miketung_82 nope!

[Jihoz.ron @Jihoz_Axie]

Make sure to migrate off Ronin Waypoint!

If you do not migrate by October 16th, your assets will be gone forever.

If you made your Ronin Wallet via social login that means you have a Waypoint wallet and need to migrate to Ronin stash OR send them to a normal seedphrase wallet.

[Ronin @Ronin_Network]

1/ Action Required: Migrate from Waypoint before October 16th

Have you used a Waypoint account, keyless wallet, or social login feature on Ronin?

You NEED to migrate your assets before the deadline or you’ll lose access to your account.

Migrate to Ronin Stash now 👇

Our NFTs are extremely valuable because they give holders access to the community treasury.

A percentage of ALL profits generated by @sillykittiesco will go into a treasury governed by NFT/token holders.

The only IP to have successfully implemented this model is Axie. We're leaning heavily into that model.

🎮 Axie Vibeathon Top 8 Spotlight: Axie Draft Arena: Draft & Clash! In this series we will be highlighting the games that made it to Round 2 of the Competition. Today we will focus on Draft and Clash. ✨

In this episode, I break down the game core mechanics while i guide you through my gameplay. The game is one of the Top 8 finalists in the Axie Vibeathon competition, built by @Exidz. 😮

I really enjoyed both PvE and PvP, as each mode offers a different way to approach the game and test your strategy. The PvE progression, especially upgrading Axie body parts after certain rounds, adds another layer of depth that makes you think carefully about your next move and theory craft the strongest possible lineups.

Watch the video for a gameplay walkthrough and learn how to play! 🔽
