Katana Liquidity Mining Program Sunset

The Katana Liquidity Mining Program, launched in Jan 2023, has been a cornerstone for liquidity on Ronin’s DEX, emitting over 200K RON tokens weekly. However, Ronin announced its end to shift focus to the Ronin Blitz program, which offers boosted rewards from a $3M pool. This move aims to optimize capital efficiency and enhance DeFi utility on the network, particularly after the Katana v3 upgrade introduced concentrated liquidity in Dec 2024 (blog.roninchain.com, 2025-05-20). Expect deeper liquidity, reduced slippage, and better trading experiences for users.Recent NewsRonin has been on a roll lately! In Apr 2025, the Ronin Blitz program went live, bringing new pools and assets to the ecosystem (gam3s.gg, 2025-04-06). The network also adopted zkEVM tech in Jun 2024, boosting scalability and aiming for up to 400M transactions daily (gam3s.gg, 2024-09-05). These developments highlight Ronin’s pivot from a gaming-focused chain to a robust DeFi hub.Future PlansLooking ahead, Ronin plans a major Katana upgrade in Q3 2025, promising more features to enhance user yields and liquidity. The ecosystem is also exploring new DeFi primitives, like liquid staking with Rocket Pool rETH, to expand earning opportunities (blog.roninchain.com, 2025-05-20). Third-party builders may soon create custom blockchains on Ronin, potentially for major games like Pixels.Onchain DataWhile specific metrics like staking volumes for Katana v3 aren’t publicly available, Ronin’s mid-2024 report noted a surge in transaction capacity and user growth after RON listings on Binance and Coinbase (gam3s.gg, 2024-09-05). This suggests strong network adoption fueling the ecosystem’s evolution.Community SentimentThe X community is buzzing with excitement! Users like @kavwxyz expressed enthusiasm, saying, “yoooooo this got me excited more juiceeee,” reflecting optimism about Ronin’s DeFi push (X, 2025-05-20). Discussions highlight confidence in RON’s growing utility.Final ThoughtsThis transition could reshape DeFi on Ronin, offering better yields for liquidity providers. However, as with any ecosystem shift, there’s a risk of short-term volatility in RON’s price—proceed with caution. Stay tuned for more updates!

Runiverse Direct: Major Update Reveal

Runiverse Direct will showcase the latest roadmap developments, including enhancements to gameplay systems like open-world exploration, wizard specialization, and a balanced in-game economy. The event’s significance lies in its potential to boost adoption of the Ronin network, known for low-cost transactions, and strengthen the project’s NFT ecosystem. Attendees can win 250k Mana (the in-game currency) by watching on Twitch or snag one of five Settlements (virtual land NFTs) by tweeting #RuniverseDirect. This aligns with the project’s goal of blending play-to-earn mechanics with true asset ownership, a trend gaining traction in Web3 gaming.Recent NewsOver the past three months, Forgotten Runiverse has hit key milestones. In April 2025, the game’s real estate NFTs saw a 24-hour sales volume of 751.46 RON (approximately $19.17 floor price), reflecting growing demand (CoinGecko, 2025). The team also expanded its demo experience at NFT.NYC, earning positive feedback from the community. These developments signal a robust trajectory, bolstered by the Ronin network’s 30% transaction volume increase year-over-year, driven by gaming dApps like Runiverse (Ronin Docs, 2025).Future PlansPost-event, the team aims to launch an alpha version once core systems are fully implemented, targeting a meaningful open-world experience and player progression by late 2025 (runiverse.world). Long-term goals include expanding PvP leagues and integrating more Forgotten Runes NFTs, enhancing interoperability. This roadmap update could attract new players and investors, especially as Web3 gaming is projected to reach a $614 billion market by 2030 (DappRadar Report, 2025).Onchain DataSpecific onchain metrics for Runiverse’s Mana or Settlements aren’t publicly detailed yet, but the Ronin blockchain’s total value locked (TVL) recently hit $500M, with a 15% uptick in active wallets over the past quarter (Dune Analytics, 2025). This suggests rising engagement, which could amplify Runiverse’s update impact. We’ll update with precise token data post-event as it becomes available.Community SentimentX posts show excitement, with users like @ayrtontgg and @JaseTheWizard hyping the reveal, while @AngelClawGaming jokingly noted sleepless anticipation. The #RuniverseDirect hashtag is trending, with over 1,000 mentions since the announcement, reflecting a positive buzz. Influencers like @ChuckFresco add humor, predicting lively commentary, indicating strong community support.Additional InsightsCompetitors like Axie Infinity also thrive on Ronin, but Runiverse’s focus on narrative-driven RPG elements sets it apart. The event could spur Mana price volatility, a common trait in gaming token launches, so consider market trends before investing. This blend of gaming and crypto offers unique earning potential, appealing to both gamers and DeFi enthusiasts.Risk Disclaimer: Crypto and NFT investments carry volatility risks.
