Opacity’s major September release shifts away from ETH fees, improves performance, and makes design and quality of life improvements — while paving the way to mobile apps and Sia storage plan in October.

Polygon and Opacity, a match made in low fee heaven

Complete List of Updates

In addition to Polygon payments, we have included a few other key updates in this release. Some are minor improvements, but together they all add up to a better overall experience.

  • Easily pay for Opacity Storage plans using Polygon network via Metamask. [Coming Soon]
Sorry, Ethereum. It’s definitely you, not us.
  • Rubic widget now defaults to Polygon network using the Matic/OPCT paid so you can easily buy OPCT on Polygon directly on-site.
