We’re launching a scaling network for Moons!

TL;DR Moons are moving to a new scaling network today! This is a critical step forward in bringing them to the Ethereum mainnet.We expect the migration to the scaling network will take several hours. During this time, you will not be able to use Moons. We will update this post when the migration is complete.If you have Moons in your Vault, you don’t need to do anything. They should be transferred over seamlessly. If you have moved Moons out of the Vault, see the instructions below for how to transfer them to the new network after the migration is complete.***Update (7/29): Sharing some links here for the new scaling network:If you have Moons in a non-Vault wallet, here is the migration tool to move them to the scaling network.To see transactions in the new network, use the L2 block explorer (other block explorers connected to Rinkeby won't show transactions anymore, since they are happening on a different layer).For developers who want to work with the new L2 network, here is an JSON RPC endpoint (chain ID is 5391184)Update (7/23): We've finished migrating Moons over to their new home. If you have Moons in your Vault, you should be able to see and use them now. In the meantime, we are putting the finishing touches on the tool to migrate Moons from other wallets, which we will share here on Monday.Update (7/23): Migration of Moons has begun. They will be unavailable during this process. We will update here when it is complete.Update (7/22): We've launched the scaling network successfully today. We plan to start migrating Moons there tomorrow, and we expect there will be some downtime during that process. We will update here with progress.***Hi r/CryptoCurrency!Ever since we launched Moons a year ago, we’ve been blown away by the love you’ve shown them, and we’ve been working hard to figure out how to grow them even further.As many of you know, scaling has been a big problem in the blockchain space, and it’s a major challenge we’ve been working on for Moons. Today, we are excited to launch a new scaling network for Moons built on Arbitrum technology! We will be testing it on top of the Rinkeby testnet before migrating to the Ethereum mainnet.We will be migrating Moons to the new network through today, and we expect it may take several hours. During this time, you will not be able to use Moons. We will update this post when the migration is complete.If your Moons are in your Vault, they should be transferred over seamlessly in the migration. While we recommend using the Vault built into the Reddit app to store Moons, we realize some people might have moved their Moons to other wallets (software & hardware). If you have Moons somewhere other than the Vault, you will be able to use a tool to transfer them to the scaling network after the migration is complete. We will update this post with a link to the tool when it is ready.As part of this scaling launch, we’ve also made a few other upgrades to Moons. You’ll notice transactions happen much faster, and once you’ve created a Vault, you won’t have to keep claiming Moons every month. They’ll just show up in your Vault like magic!Today’s launch is a big step forward, but our work is far from done. Our goal is to cross the chasm to mainstream adoption by bringing millions of users to blockchain. If you are a top-notch engineer who wants to build a more decentralized Internet at Reddit-level scale, we want to work with you! No crypto experience required. To learn more about our team and our project, apply on that link or shoot me a PM, I’d love to talk to you.As always, we’re very excited to be working with all of you as we take Moons to the next level. Thanks for all your support, and see you on the moon!
