FAQ UPDATED: Get ready to migrate to Immutable zkEVM

Greetings, Guardians! 

As we embark on a journey to new frontiers, the Guild of Guardians experience is set for an unprecedented evolution. Our transformation from Immutable X, powered by Starkware, to Immutable zkEVM, powered by Polygon, detailed in our December announcement, is now on the horizon!

ICYMI, here’s why this transition marks a momentous occasion: 

  • Enhanced Gameplay: Through this transition, we’re elevating the game with sophisticated interactions enabled by smart contracts, creating a seamless experience
  • Ethereum-grade Security & Efficiency: Benefit from Ethereum's robust security with the added advantage of faster and more cost-effective transactions.
  • Advanced Tokenomics: Future staking programs on Immutable zkEVM introduces trustless systems and greatly improves the experience and rewards for $GOG staking participants. 
  • Gas Free for Gamers: We will be sponsoring in-game gas fees for all Immutable Passport users at the outset, abstracting away these fees to enable frictionless onboarding and providing a streamlined gaming experience initially.

TLDR on the GOG zkEVM Migration;

GOG NFTs | ERC-721:
  • We will be migrating all existing GOG NFTs from Immutable X to Immutable zkEVM on 4th March 2024 at 11am AEDT. All active trades for GOG NFTs on Immutable X will be canceled and the order book will be frozen.
  • You will have to connect your existing wallet to Immutable Passport via Gamer Profile before 10am AEDT on 4 March 2024 for a cost-free migration.  Please keep in mind that in some parts of the world, this time and date may actually fall on 3 March 2024.
  • If you DO NOT connect your wallet to Passport before 10am AEDT on 4 March 2024, your NFTs will be minted on the zkEVM address of your current wallet. 
$GOG Tokens | ERC-20:
  • The portal where you can withdraw and transfer your $GOG tokens from Immutable X to Immutable zkEVM will be launching at the end of Feb 2024.
  • If you hold more than 50 $GOG tokens on Immutable X as of 10am AEDT, 9 February 2024, and holds equal or greater $GOG balance on Immutable zkEVM 1 month after the token migration portal goes live, you will be rewarded with 50 $GOG tokens per wallet.

The Migration Process

*As of February 16 2024, you will be able to find the latest next steps in our updated FAQ page here!

For Your GOG NFTs (ERC-721)

Connect your wallet to Immutable Passport BEFORE 10am AEDT on 4 March 2024: Link your wallet to Immutable Passport through your Gamer Profile no later than 10am AEDT on 4 March  2024. Please keep in mind that in some parts of the world, this time and date may actually fall on 3 March 2024.

Here’s how: 

  1. Go to the Passport Dashboard (https://passport.immutable.com/)
  2. Navigate to your External Wallets menu
  3. Link your Metamask wallet 

More detailed guide here.

After which you’re all set; we’ll do the rest for you and without cost! At 11am (AEDT) on 4 March 2024,  all active trades for GOG NFTs on Immutable X will be cancelled and the order book will be frozen. We aim to complete the migration and have your GOG NFTs minted in your wallet you have linked with Immutable Passport by 6 March 2024.

If you miss the deadline: Should you fail to link your Metamask wallet to an Immutable Passport account before the cutoff time and date (10am AEDT, 4 March 2024), your GOG NFTs will still be migrated to zkEVM, directed to the same Metamask wallet address. To use these NFTs in Guild of Guardians, you will need to transfer them from your Metamask wallet to Passport on zkEVM, which will likely involve transfer/gas fees.  You can avoid these fees and extra steps by ensuring you do not miss the deadline.

⚠️Note:

  • In preparation for the metadata updates, NFT metadata attributes on Immutable X will be updated on 1st March 2024 AEDT (previously 29 February 2024). NFT metadata of GOG NFTs on Immutable zkEVM will continue to be off-chain as it is today on Immutable X.
  • As a reminder, we will be reducing the royalty fee to 0.5% on GOG Avatar NFTs when we migrate them to Immutable zkEVM.

For Your $GOG Tokens (ERC-20)

After your wait is over… Finalize the withdrawal to transfer your tokens onto Ethereum Layer 1.

This step might take up to 20 minutes, depending on the Ethereum network's current volume and associated gas fees.
