Ronin is tailor-made for Web3 gaming — fast, affordable, and secure. It offers near-zero transaction fees, Ethereum compatibility through EVM support, and the ability to handle millions of users without sacrificing performance. After a major security breach in 2022, the network implemented robust security upgrades and audits, strengthening its infrastructure for long-term resilience.
Ronin has quickly grown beyond Axie Infinity to host a thriving ecosystem of games like Pixels and The Machines Arena. With over 200,000 daily active addresses and a strong developer grant program, it’s become a go-to chain for studios building scalable, user-friendly Web3 experiences. Its native tools — including Katana DEX, the Ronin Wallet, and Ronin Name Service — help onboard both players and builders seamlessly.
