Yuga Labs Endorse Proof of Stake
Yuga Labs announced that once the merge for Ethereum is completed, Yuga will only recognize NFTs on PoS, and any future utility or relevant licence is only eligible on this chain.
The Ethereum network is gearing up for the merge mid September. In line with the broader Ethereum community, in the event of a viable PoW fork, Yuga intends to only recognize NFTs on the PoS ETH chain as subject to the relevant NFT license and eligible for Yuga-offered utility.
