NEWS ROUNDUP ZKsync Eyes Treasure ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/e4/b7/e4b77544-5a37-4f0b-8824-8440aa348476/content/images/2024/09/image---2024-09-13T121025.317.png)[**TreasureDAO**](https://treasure.lol/about)**, the community behind Arbitrum's **[**largest ecosystem of games**](https://app.treasure.lol/games)**, is considering its biggest decision yet.** This week, Treasure's core contributors [put forward a proposal](https://forum.treasure.lol/discussion/24869-tip44-launching-treasure-l2-on-zksync) to migrate the Treasure Layer 2 (L2) testnet from Arbitrum Orbit tech to ZKsync's Elastic Chain infra. So, what's on the table? Treasure's builders merged proposals [from Matter Labs](https://forum.treasure.lol/discussion/24867-proposal-for-treasuredao-to-launch-treasure-l2-as-part-of-the-zksyncs-elastic-chain) and [the ZKsync Foundation](https://forum.treasure.lol/discussion/24868-proposal-for-treasuredao-zksync-foundation-token-swap) into TIP-44, which recommends using ZKsync to launch the mainnet version of the Treasure L2. Reasons cited included adopting the zero-knowledge rollup format, ZKsync's native support for account abstraction, and the ability to readily tap into the wider Elastic Chain ecosystem. The proposal also called for a token swap between TreasureDAO and the ZKsync Foundation—16.8 million ZK tokens for 5.26 million MAGIC tokens. All that said, for Treasure's core builders to have submitted TIP-44 means they clearly believe this change of scenery would better serve their long-term goals around scalability and UX. For now, we'll have to see what happens next. Voting is poised to begin for MAGIC holders on September 17th, and with Treasure's core contributors not participating in the vote, it'll be up to the community to decide whether the leap to ZKsync is worth it. If it comes through, the migration would certainly be a blow to Arbitrum's gaming scene. Alongside Pirate Nation, Treasure has been Arbitrum's most teeming gaming project to date. Yet with Arbitrum's huge [new gaming fund](https://www.theblock.co/post/299167/arbitrum-dao-votes-to-approve-215-million-gaming-ecosystem-fund-proposed-by-arbitrum-foundation) and the recent introduction of [Stylus](https://arbitrum.io/stylus), which allows Arbitrum games to be created in popular programming languages like Rust and C, don't count the biggest L2 out when it comes to the future of onchain gaming. That future might just be without Treasure moving forward! ### **📰 General news** - **DRiP **raised [$8M in seed funding](https://x.com/drip_haus/status/1833147125070237755) - **ENS **published [its latest L2 roadmap considerations](https://blog.ens.domains/post/ensv2-update) and [announced PayPal and Venmo support](https://x.com/ensdomains/status/1833536140529570039) - **OpenSea** kicked off [the Creator Legal Defense Fund in collaboration with a16z and Stand With Crypto](https://x.com/opensea/status/1834572235467591999)[ ](https://twitter.com/punksOTC/status/1798093880711155918) ### **🎨 Cryptoart & music** - **DOT**, a pixel art platform on Base, [joined a16z's Crypto Startup Accelerator (CSX) Fall 2024 cohort](https://x.com/gtmcknight/status/1833204709890396305) - **Prohibition**, a generative art platform, [is closing up shop](https://x.com/JordanLyall/status/1834306409657487435) - **Shape**, an L2 for creatives built by the Deca team, [is launching on Sept. 30th](https://x.com/Shape_L2/status/1834302813691683326) - **Zora **opened [its mobile app to everyone](https://x.com/zora/status/1833535922283184465) ### **🏆 Digital collectibles** - **Azuki **introduced [its new anime.com platform](https://x.com/ZAGABOND/status/1834397475945504774) - **CryptoPunk 2386**, a rare ape, [was purchased for 10 ETH in a sneaky blitz via defunct NFT fractionalization protocol Niftex](https://x.com/0xQuit/status/1833981559910850603) - **Kraken and Williams Racing** released [the Cosmos collection, designed by DeGods lead artist Candy Apple](https://blog.kraken.com/product/nft/cosmos-collection), and [started a new Rear Wing Takeover contest](https://x.com/krakenfx/status/1833195118720950312) - **Punks.wtf** published their [2024 CryptoPunk Sales Report](https://punks.wtf/reports/3) - **Visualize Value** is building [an onchain Opepen V3 overhaul](https://x.com/jalil_eth/status/1833992382196420683) ### **🎮 Decentralized gaming** - **Axie Infinity **launched [the Origins S10 Epic Era](https://x.com/AxieInfinity/status/1833730250825724150) - **Claynosaurz **is launching [a mobile game in collaboration with Gameloft](https://decrypt.co/249031/gameloft-claynosaurz-mobile-game-solana-nfts) - **EVE Frontier**, built by the creators of EVE Online, [is launching on the Redstone gaming L2](https://x.com/latticexyz/status/1834233880880316654) - **Nifty Island** announced [more details about its upcoming ISLAND token launch](https://x.com/Nifty_Island/status/1834666703940469010) - **Nouns** defeated [reigning Dota 2 world champions Team Spirit 2-0 in a TI bout](https://x.com/daedalus_angels/status/1832459003462393980) - **Parallel **welcomed [its new guilds system, Bonds](https://x.com/ChainSafeGaming/status/1833953105915826554) - **Pirate Nation** reopened [signups](https://x.com/PirateNation/status/1834666742460661912) ### **📱 Onchain social** - **Drakula **is releasing [a new Base app on Oct. 1st](https://x.com/Drakulaapp/status/1833021725967339690) - **Farcaster **has facilitated [+22,000 onchain account recoveries to date](https://x.com/dwr/status/1834623340256149904) - **Moshicam **added [support for Lens](https://x.com/moshicamera/status/1833943060918796527) - **Rodeo **opened [access to all Highlight users](https://x.com/natemodi/status/1834267745762115790) ### **🪙 NFTfi ** - **GONDI **announced [its latest series of product updates](https://x.com/gondixyz/status/1834629500426199439) ### 🌐 **Virtual Worlds** - **Decentraland** is hosting [an open call contest for emotes and 3D experience submissions](https://x.com/decentraland/status/1834487306868175079) - **Otherside** expanded [its ODK Pre-Alpha to its next cohort of 3D artists and developers](https://x.com/OthersideMeta/status/1834668475081449763) --- --- *This article is brought to you by [MetaMask](https://www.bankless.com/sponsor/metamask-1776260643?ref=treasure-zksync)*
