π€ Ronin to Migrate From Gaming Sidechain to OP Stack Ethereum Layer 2 on May 12
Ronin will transition from an independent gaming sidechain to an Ethereum Layer 2 network based on the OP Stack on May 12, ending its operation as a standalone sidechain since 2021.
The migration is expected to cause around 10 hours of downtime and will reduce RON annual inflation from over 20% to below 1%.
Ronin was previously hit by a roughly $625 million bridge exploit in 2022, one of the largest cross-chain bridge hacks in DeFi history. #hack
