Ronin（RON）是什麼？

Ronin stands out thanks to several main benefits.

First, the blockchain offers cheap and fast transactions with a confirmation time of 2-3 seconds. This makes it well-suited to a game like Axie that requires a high frequency of transaction confirmations.

Second, users can withdraw Axie assets back to the Ethereum mainnet with its Ronin Bridge . That means players can benefit from the profits they earned playing the game and conveniently swap tokens to other cryptocurrencies.

Third, it offers simplified onboarding for new users with a fiat on-ramp and a native wallet, lowering the barriers to entry for new players and making it easy to get started even for cryptocurrency newbies.

Sky Mavis built Ronin to be the default NFT scaling solution for gaming. Ronin already handles more NFT volume than all Ethereum NFT scaling solutions combined, and 15% of all NFT volume in 2021 happened on Ronin. Its bridge is the third-largest bridge by total volume after Polygon and Avalanche and a top-five bridge on Ethereum by total value locked. Sky Mavis’ vision is for Ronin to become the premier location to launch Axie-related games and NFT games from other developers. To accomplish that, Ronin plans to further decentralize by opening up its validator application process in 2022.

In its first phase, at least ten validators outside of Sky Mavis will join the Ronin network, and at least three external teams will be building NFT games on top of it. The second phase will see 20 external validators and five external teams, as well as Ronin upgrading to delegated proof of stake. In its final phase, Ronin anticipates more than 100 validators in its network that receive fees from protocols and NFT sales outside the Axie universe.
