QuarkChain’s Ethereum Layer 2 Migration Vote
QuarkChain, a blockchain project known for its sharding tech, is proposing a shift to Ethereum’s Layer 2 ecosystem to enhance scalability and efficiency. The snapshot for voting eligibility happens on May 13, 2025, with voting open from May 15–22, 2025 (UTC). This move aims to align with Ethereum’s rollup-centric roadmap, reducing bottlenecks like high fees and slow transactions while maintaining decentralization—a core part of QuarkChain’s “Super World Computer” vision (docs.quarkchain.io). The community’s decision will shape QKC’s future, emphasizing their commitment to decentralized governance.Recent NewsIn the past three months, QuarkChain has been active in developer engagement, hosting hackathons to gather feedback on their ecosystem, a strategy they’ve used since their 2018 Google ABC Hackathon participation (medium.com). They’ve also teased advancements in multi-native token tech, aiming to solve smart contract limitations, as shared by CEO Qi Zhou in recent posts.Future PlansPost-migration, QuarkChain plans to leverage Ethereum’s OP Stack rollup to improve transaction throughput and reduce centralized risks like frontends, a common issue in Ethereum apps. Their roadmap includes expanding DApp development and global community growth, building on their scalable architecture (quarkchain.io).Onchain DataWhile specific QKC onchain metrics for 2025 are unavailable, historical data shows QuarkChain’s focus on high transaction throughput—previously achieving 55,000+ TPS in testnets (bitget.com). Post-migration, expect improved metrics as they tap into Ethereum’s L2 efficiency.Community SentimentOn X, the sentiment is buzzing with optimism. Users like @alanxush call it “something big,” reflecting excitement for QuarkChain’s evolution. The community appreciates the governance model, a staple since their 2019 token unlock votes (medium.com).Risk DisclaimerMigration votes can lead to price volatility; ensure you research before participating.
