What can RNS names do?

Use as gamertag across Ronin ecosystem
Send and transfer digital assets like butter
Trade them as NFTs on Mavis Market
Buy special collection names at RNS auctions
Gift RNS to your friends and family to kickstart their Web3 journey

Final Thoughts
Today’s RNS Public Sale is an important step for Ronin. 30% of every RNS sale goes to the Ronin Treasury, which means RON is now accruing value from gas fees, staking rewards, ownership of the Katana DeX’s 0.05% fee, Mavis Market’s 0.5% fee – and now RNS sales! There are over 11M Ronin addresses in existence today, so what will you name yours?
