#Write2Earn #ANCIENT8 UNVEILS MAINNET: PIONEERING #ETHEREUM #LAYER2 FOR #GAMING $A8
Ancient8 is thrilled to unveil the Ancient8 Mainnet, a significant milestone in its mission to empower a million creators and inspire a global community of 100 million gamers. The Ancient8 Chain, powered by the robust OP Stack and Celestia integration, now stands as Ethereum Layer 2 for gaming, strategically addressing scalability and adoption hurdles in fully on-chain games and consumer DApps. This milestone marks a pivotal leap forward in their journey.
From Successful Testnet to Robust Mainnet
Ancient8's vision for an Ethereum Layer 2 has been in development since mid-2022, and it officially began with the launch of Testnet V1 in September 2023. This marked the beginning of Ancient8's mission to empower game developers with cost-effective and innovative on-chain gaming experiences. Following valuable community feedback, Ancient8 further refined and strengthened the Ancient8 Chain with the integration of Celestia in Testnet V2.
Throughout the testnet phases, Ancient8 achieved significant milestones thanks to the invaluable support of developer communities. This collaborative effort allowed Ancient8 to approach the Mainnet release with necessary improvements, addressing game development needs such as onboarding essential games, resolving infrastructure challenges, and fostering education and community collaboration.
