According to news from CoinWorld, a new proposal suggests building Ronin L2 as an Arbitrum Orbit chain because the Ronin team plans to migrate the game chain to a fully matured, Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 by 2026. According to the proposal, Arbitrum (ARB) has unique advantages to assist Ronin (RON) as this L2 seeks to return to Ethereum (ETH). With Arbitrum having a dedicated web 3 gaming venture capital department, the proposal to build Ronin as an L2 on the Orbit chain means that Arbitrum will be more than just a technical partner. Ronin L2 on the Arbitrum Orbit chain will be supported by RON and backed by Arbitrum Gaming Ventures. This plan will allow Ronin to benefit from native support for RON as a gas token, transaction speed, customizability, and autonomy, as well as optimized validator fee revenue. Notably, Arbitrum Orbit is the only L2 stack on Ethereum that offers native support for all four ecosystem features without hacks, workarounds, or reduced upgradeability. Today, we have officially proposed to the Ronin validator community that @Ronin_Network collaborate with @arbitrum to build. With $RON as gas on Ronin L2, nearly 12 times the transaction speed, and strategic support from Arbitrum Gaming Ventures, Ronin is ready to accelerate to the next level! pic.twitter.com/3ElaqFg4xm This means that Ronin users will have the opportunity to leverage the advantages of Arbitrum's L2, with instant transactions and gaming community support. In this case, L2 will also accelerate Ronin's adoption of web3 gaming. This could lead to greater integration across the entire Ethereum ecosystem. The native Ronin token RON will also benefit, with its usage being enhanced across the entire L2 network. Ronin launched in 2021 as a layer-1 blockchain developed by Sky Mavis, aimed at addressing the scalability challenges of Axie Infinity (AXS). The blockchain went live with a proof-of-authority consensus model before transitioning to delegated proof-of-stake in 2023. Ronin is returning to Ethereum. Ready for Layer Two ⚔️ Four years ago, we built Ronin because Axie Infinity needed a faster and more efficient network. Ethereum is in the early stages of its scaling roadmap.

But now, things are different… pic.twitter.com/YnQobDvhX3 The EVM-compatible chain supports a variety of tools designed to assist game developers and integrates ecosystem solutions such as Chainlink's cross-chain interoperability protocol for secure and cross-chain token transfers. Ronin also supports cross-chain non-fungible tokens and decentralized finance applications. Recent network developments include the launch of Open Ronin through Project Leviosa, which helps to push the blockchain beyond its gaming-centric model to become a platform supporting DeFi, infrastructure, and consumer application smart contracts. The Ronin team recently noted that the transition to L2 on Ethereum is part of the mission to become "the gamified engine of Ethereum."
