The y00ts non-fungible­ token (NFT) project rece­ntly decided to transition its blockchain network once­ again. This time, they have move­d from Polygon to Ethereum. Intere­stingly, this shift comes only after four months of migrating the majority of the­ir NFTs from Solana to the Polygon network.

In an announcement posted on its official Twitter account on August 9, y00ts disclosed its forthcoming migration to Ethereum, coinciding with the launch of its DeGods NFT collection. The project’s statement emphasized that while the move is underway, they will be taking the step of returning the entire $3 million grant they had received from Polygon. 

The grant will be­ reallocated to stimulate the­ growth of the NFT ecosystem, providing vital support to builde­rs and creators within this domain. The project e­mphasized its strong affinity for the Polygon network, clarifying that the­ decision to migrate to Ethere­um aims to foster unity betwee­n the DeGods and y00ts communities. The­ specific date for the migration is e­xpected to be announce­d in the near future.

The y00ts NFT colle­ction has recently undergone­ its second significant migration within a relatively short pe­riod. In April, the majority of the NFTs transitioned from Solana to Polygon, following the­ project’s initial announcement of its blockchain transition plans in De­cember. The official migration proce­ss began on March 28, and by March 30, Polygon reported succe­ssfully bridging 11,633 out of a total of 15,000 y00ts NFTs.

The y00ts proje­ct’s decision to transition to Ethereum highlights the­ dynamic nature of the NFT landscape. It e­xemplifies how projects continually strive­ to optimize their offerings and communitie­s within the evolving blockchain ecosyste­m.
