Ronin Network Hits 1.2M Users, Aims for #1 ETH L2 by Adoption with zkEVM

Ronin Network, a gaming-centric sidechain of Ethereum designed for faster and cheaper transactions, has recently announced significant milestones and future plans aimed at scaling and mass adoption. Initially launched in February 2021, Ronin has now surpassed 1.2 million daily active users and is working towards onboarding millions more with the introduction of multi-chain support on the Ronin Wallet. The network is exploring the use of zero-knowledge (ZK) rollups as a solution to scale up to 50 million users or more, stating that "zkEVMs are the best scaling solution". Additionally, Ronin aims to align more closely with Ethereum, aspiring to become the "#1 ETH L2 by adoption". The network's commitment to scaling has attracted a high level of interest from game developers, and plans are underway to make Ronin fully permissionless, leveraging zkEVMs as the primary scaling solution. This includes enabling the creation of permissionless Ronin L2s and allowing new games on Ronin to create their own app chains to meet scaling needs.
