Axie Infinity Co-founder Jihoz Declares Largest Ever L1-to-L2 Data Migration

Sky Mavis co-founder jihoz_axie has declared that the recent migration of data from a Layer 1 blockchain to an Ethereum Layer 2 represents the largest such event ever recorded. He thanked infrastructure provider conduitxyz for its assistance in the process.

Jihoz, whose real name is Jeffrey Zirlin, is the co-founder and growth lead of Sky Mavis, the studio behind the popular Web3 game Axie Infinity and the Ronin Network. He is a prominent figure in Web3 gaming, focused on building player-owned economies.

The statement marks a significant technical milestone for the project, suggesting a substantial transfer of user data and assets to a new blockchain infrastructure layer built on Ethereum. Such migrations are complex undertakings that involve moving user accounts, assets, and application state.

This development indicates a major step in the project's infrastructure scaling efforts, likely aimed at improving performance and reducing transaction costs for its user base.
