An important change has just occurred in the blockchain world! Layer-2 Ethernity Chain (ERN) officially rebranded to Epic Chain (EPIC) to better position the brand for future direction.
🔹 Name Change But No Change in Essence
On February 9, 2025, the DAO community of #EthernityChain voted with 97.1% consensus to approve the name change of the project to Epic Chain (EPIC).
Ethernity Chain originally started as an NFT marketplace, but over time, the project has expanded into RWA (real-world assets) and entertainment metaverse. Therefore, the name change to Epic Chain helps accurately reflect the new direction.
🔹 Tokenomics Remains Unchanged – No Disruption
Although the name and token code have changed, the tokenomics parameters remain unchanged:
Total supply remains unchanged: 30,000,000 EPIC (equal to the previous total supply of ERN).
Exchange rate: 1:1 (ERN → #EPIC ).
Token unlock schedule: Remains unchanged, no changes affecting investors.
🔹 How to Convert ERN to EPIC
The project is working with CEX exchanges to support the conversion.
If holding ERN on an exchange, users do not need to do anything; the system will automatically swap.
If stored in a personal wallet (Metamask, Trust Wallet...), you need to wait for the team to provide the official link to connect the wallet and swap to EPIC.
🔹 The Applicability of EPIC
Epic Chain will inherit all the functionalities of ERN, including:
✅ Staking to receive rewards.
✅ Trading on exchanges.
✅ DAO governance (voting on important decisions).
✅ Expanding many new features as the Epic Chain ecosystem develops.
🔹 Market Reaction
Despite the name change, the price #ERN did not react strongly, currently trading around $1.42, down 98% from the ATH of $73.86 in March 2021.
Conclusion
The name change to Epic Chain (EPIC) marks a significant turning point in the project's development strategy. ERN investors are not affected by this change and can continue to hold or swap to EPIC as needed. Do you think EPIC will create a new growth wave? 🚀
