Myria is a new technology designed to enhance how we use digital collectibles (NFTs) and play games on the blockchain. It's built on top of Ethereum, known as a Layer 2 (L2) solution, and works with StarkWare to make everything smoother and more efficient.
Description
Here’s how it works:
- Fast and Cheap: Myria speeds up transactions and removes the usual costs (gas fees) when creating (minting) or trading NFTs.
- High Transaction Speed: Uses Zero-Knowledge Rollup (ZK-Rollup) technology, which bundles many transactions into one. This can handle up to 9,000 transactions per second!
- Focused on Gaming and NFTs: Myria is all about making blockchain gaming and NFT use better. It does this by increasing the number of transactions and reducing costs, which is great for gamers and NFT enthusiasts.
- Developer-Friendly: Offers tools (SDKs) for game and blockchain developers, making it easier for them to create cool games and apps.
- Integrated User Platform: Comes with its own wallet and a marketplace specifically for NFTs.
In simple terms, Myria is making blockchain gaming and NFTs faster, cheaper, and more accessible for everyone, from game makers to players and collectors.
