Ronin will migrate to the Ethereum Layer-2 network on May 12 and be temporarily down for 10 hours

In comparison, according to CoinDesk, Ronin, the game chain behind Axie Infinity, will move from an independent sidechain to the Ethereum Layer 2 network through a hard fork on May 12, which is expected to cause about 10 hours of network downtime, during which time all transfers, swaps, and contract interactions and on-chain gaming activity will be suspended.

The upgrade will introduce the OP Stack architecture and the “Proof of Distribution” distribution model to reward builders based on actual network contributions, while drastically reducing the RON inflation rate from over 20% to less than 1%, and transferring 90 million RON originally used for staking rewards to the treasury fund. The market fee will be raised from 0.5% to 1.25% to improve security, scalability, and reshape the token economy.
