Whale.io has announced a migration of its NFT collection from the TON blockchain to Solana, aiming to expand the project's interoperability and accessibility.
Initial Launch on TON
The Whale NFT collection was initially launched on the TON blockchain, where all 20,000 NFTs were minted at no cost within hours. The collection quickly became one of the most visible on Getgems, TON's leading NFT marketplace, with the floor price increasing approximately sevenfold.
Supply Management and Fee-Free Trading
The Whale team has implemented supply management mechanisms like token buybacks and supply reductions to maintain interest in the project on the TON platform. Similar measures are expected after the move to Solana. The NFT collection has been available for fee-free trading, contributing to its visibility on Getgems.
Goals of Migration to Solana
The move to Solana aims to expand the audience by integrating with Solana's scalable infrastructure and active NFT ecosystem, enhancing project accessibility and engagement across blockchain environments.
The migration to Solana symbolizes a strategic strengthening of Whale.io in the NFT and blockchain gaming spheres.
