Ronin migrates to Ethereum as an OP Stack L2, with RON inflation dropping below 1%.

According to HuoXing CaiJin, the gaming blockchain Ronin has announced it will migrate to Ethereum Layer 2 on May 12. During the migration, on-chain operations will be suspended for approximately 10 hours, after which normal operations will resume. The new underlying architecture will be built on OP Stack and integrate EigenDA as the data availability layer. Users are advised to unstake their RON tokens before the migration date, or the system will automatically unstake them after migration completes. The core objective of this migration is to leverage Ethereum’s security, data availability, and finality while introducing mature on-chain gaming infrastructure to the Ethereum ecosystem. As the underlying network for prominent on-chain games such as Axie Infinity and Pixels, this move is regarded as a significant milestone in Ronin’s ecosystem development. After migration, RON’s annual inflation rate will be reduced from over 20% to below 1%, and the treasury will gain sustained revenue from staking rewards, Sequencer net fees, and increased Marketplace transaction fees (rising from 0.5% to 1.25%).
