The migration from Solana to Polygon had been initiated in December, with the actual migration process commencing on March 28.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Impressively, within just two days, Polygon announced the successful bridging of 11,633 y00ts NFTs out of a total of 15,000. However, this transition appears to be a short-lived chapter as the project now prepares to make its home on the Ethereum blockchain network.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-148261 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/crypto-economy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Y00ts-Migration-from-Polygon-to-Ethereum.jpg\" alt=\"y00ts NFT Sets to Bid Farewell to Polygon\" width=\"825\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/crypto-economy.com\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Y00ts-Migration-from-Polygon-to-Ethereum.jpg 825w, https:\/\/crypto-economy.com\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Y00ts-Migration-from-Polygon-to-Ethereum-300x109.jpg 300w, https:\/\/crypto-economy.com\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Y00ts-Migration-from-Polygon-to-Ethereum-768x279.jpg 768w, https:\/\/crypto-economy.com\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Y00ts-Migration-from-Polygon-to-Ethereum-18x7.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 825px) 100vw, 825px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>DeLabs has also disclosed that it will be returning a substantial $3 million grant provided by Polygon Labs<\/strong>.
