Weekly Roundup — November 1st, 2021
Dear Lympo Community,
You must have witnessed all the buzz around the “Metaverse” last week after Mark Zuckerberg announced the rebranding of his company to “Meta.” Regardless of whether it’s good or bad that a big centralized tech company is venturing into this space, we can’t ignore the buzz it has evoked across the world for both crypto and non-crypto people. Let’s see how this “Metaverse” will take shape, but we’re glad that Animoca Brands is leading to create a Metaverse that is open to all.
We’ve had a big week at Lympo, as we’ve finally been able to announce our partnership with Polygon Studios to bridge NFTs to Polygon and develop Play-to-Earn blockchain games. Soon, we can say goodbye to those crazy gas fees on the ERC-20 blockchain that we’re currently experiencing.
Find out more about our partnership with Polygon Studios — and more — in today’s Weekly Roundup. And happy Halloween! 🎃
Last week’s recap
Lympo partners with Polygon Studios 🚀
The news is out! Lympo and Polygon Studios are partnering up to bridge Lympo NFTs to the Polygon blockchain and to develop Play-to-Earn blockchain games.
Polygon Studios is a new NFT-centric gaming and metaverse hub designed to facilitate Web 3 integration. This partnership will allow us to reduce fees and better your staking experience, so you’ll be able to utilize your Lympo NFTs in the first-ever Lympo game later on.
The bridge to Polygon will start on November 3rd at 23:59 UTC and end on November 4th at 10:00 UTC. So be aware that any Lympo NFTs minted or credits earned during this time will not be accounted for. We’ll snapshot all of the account data on November 3rd at 23:59 UTC and automatically transfer all of your Lympo NFTs and “Credits” to the Polygon blockchain. Please read our announcement article here to make sure you’re up to date.

He has provided a summary of what he means by true digital ownership and play-to-earn, followed by a discussion of how Animoca Brands is leading the way, so be sure to give it a read!

Only a few more days, and we’re bridging our NFTs and staking platform to the Polygon Blockchain! Once again, make sure you’ve read the announcement so you’re up to date on why we’re doing this and how it will shape the future of the Lympo NFTs platform.
After the merge has happened, there will be a lot of new functionalities that we’re going to implement for all Lympo users. You’ll hear more about it, from faster swapping between blockchains to NFT staking mechanisms in the upcoming time.
