New Era of NFTs With Rari: Royalty Payments Embedded Into Every Transaction
The RARI Foundation has released the mainnet of RARI Chain, an Ethereum Layer 3 (L3) blockchain on Arbitrum, aiming to initiate a new NFT era.
The announcement said that, “with lightning-fast transactions and near-zero gas fees, we are focused on building a pathway to new NFT use cases on a secure L3 powered by Arbitrum.”
RARI Chain aims to address scalability issues in the NFT space. Furthermore, it embeds royalty payments at the node level, and the system automatically distributes royalties at the time of sale.
The website added that “this marks an initiation of a new NFT era, empowering creators to seize control of their livelihoods and ensure rightful royalties for their creative endeavors.”
