Given today’s @coinbase listing of $RON / $RONIN, now feels like a good time to provide an update / refresher on the Ronin Network. Ronin: The Gaming Chain Ronin is quickly proving to be the dominant NFT gaming chain, demonstrating that it can act as a primary distribution channel for crypto games. Originally created to support the growth of Axie and catalyzing millions of users in the 2021 cycle, Ronin is becoming so much more. It’s becoming the mitochondria of web3 gaming. The powerhouse of the industry. The Ronin Effect: Pixels migration to Ronin The last few months have perfectly illustrated Ronin’s power as a games distribution platform. Pixels grew from 5K to 730 K DAU when migrating from Polygone to Ronin. MAU currently sits at a whipping 1.3 M. Is Pixels the largest onchain application in all of crypto right now? Game developers need users and Pixels proves that Ronin is the only chain that can offer this. Our vision is coming to fruition. The first platform to dominate distribution enjoys a significant advantage, with a good chance to leapfrog competitors. Think of how Apple used content via the iPod/iTunes/Mac connect to flank Microsoft and beat Sony at their own game. Artists were willing to endorse iTunes and upload their music for a lower cost because of the distribution and marketing power that Apple had. Tecnology’s biggest lever is this distribution advantage. Ronin’s strategy is to use gaming as an approachable portal into web3. Then, we can introduce users to more complex, higher LTV applications. This is the path to the largest all-purpose chain: content + social interactions as an onboarding portal. Distribution is king and Ronin network is the only chain with an army. We've built a hardcore community through Axie and used that to create a bootstrapping mechanism for other games + content. Early indications show that it’s working. Ronin’s daily active addresses is mooning, making it one of the most used blockchains in the world and the fastest growing thing in Blockchain right now. Period. If you’re bullish on web3 gaming and don’t own RON, you are mid-curving super hard. If you’re a web3 gaming analyst at a crypto fund and didn’t recommend RON/ PIXEL to your bosses you’re likely going through a post mortem during your next performance review already. Don’t double down on your mistake by continuing to fade. To Coinbase, congratulations for seeing the writing on the wall and listing RON, king of the gaming chains. To the Ronin community, keep pushing. Without the catalysts of Ronin and Binance acting as a magnet, the next legs up will be even more reliant on your hard work and evangelism. Every day is a call to arms. There is no challenge that we back down from. There is no obstacle that can slow our progress. IF we remain congealed as one beating hive mind. YOU are the Ronin network. So seize your destiny. - Jihoz

This has been a tough morning for me.  Two of my addresses have been compromised. The attack is limited to my personal accounts, and has nothing to do with validation or operations of the Ronin chain. Additionally, the leaked keys have nothing to do with Sky Mavis operations. I want to assure everyone that we have strict security measures in place for all chain related activities. Thank you to everyone that's reached out. I'm safe. I will get through this. I will keep pushing forward with each and everyone of you on this magical journey. The mission: bring economic freedom to all users of the internet starting with gamers. Same as yesterday🤝
