Acclaimed NFT minting platform, Zora, has unmasked its Layer 2 Ethereum scaling network following weeks of vigorous testing. Ringing in a new era for creator and artistic communities, ‘Zora Network’ is leaping with a dual purpose: to trim costs of gas fees that typically weigh on NFT curators’ and collectors’ shoulders and transform the user experience into simplicity and efficiency.
Zora has been hitting the Ethereum mainnet’s upper limit throughout the past six months. With 880,000 collectors and millions of NFTs minted, gas prices have been a widespread obstacle. By utilizing the technical framework of Optimism, Zora is on a mission to override such barriers, reducing the minting price by 25% when matched against Ethereum.
Voicing being “Pure internet. Free and valuable. Resonance and connection. Open and shared. Independence and expansion. For all creation,” a diverse range of on-chain platforms have joined Zora to draw on the recently launched gains, including the Rainbow wallet provider, Sound.xyz music platform, and the Thirdweb Web3 application toolkit, among others.
