Ronin activates Karst upgrade: 16 games, RON down 98% from peak
- —Karst went live on October 7 at 16:00:01 UTC with no downtime required
- —The upgrade ported Ethereum's Fusaka hard fork and Optimism's op-contracts 7.0.0
- —Per-transaction gas cap is about 16.8 million; a typical swap costs roughly 10,000 gas
- —RON trades near $0.069 with a ~$53 million market cap and $14.44 billion in cumulative DEX volume
Why it matters: Ronin is now technically closer to Ethereum, but it remains a niche chain with thin liquidity and high risk for RON holders.
