Preparing for LAND Smart Contract Migration to Layer 2
enjoi posted a news entry in The Sandbox's The Sandbox News
L2 migration is coming soon — we’ll help you get your LAND ready TL;DR To prepare for Polygon deployment and bridging, we’re finishing the migration process for all LANDS to Layer 2 Going forward, LAND can only be bridged from the new LAND smart contract No user action is required, but to avoid any lost tokens, we will automatically migrate LANDS not already updated to the new contract on April 27, 2022 The address of the new LAND smart contract introduced this year is 0x5CC5B05a8A13E3fBDB0BB9FcCd98D38e50F90c38 There is no cost involved on the user’s side; all migration gas costs are entirely covered by The Sandbox If you have any questions, we’re here to help! We are finishing the migration for all LANDS to Layer 2 to prepare for the Polygon network’s deployment and bridge. Through Polygon, gas fees are greatly reduced, so there are long-term benefits through this process. But to achieve these benefits, all LANDS must be migrated to the new smart contract that was deployed on January 30, 2022. Going forward, LAND can only be bridged from the new smart contract and we want to avoid any confusion or lost tokens. Therefore, on April 27, 2022 we will automatically force migration of any LANDS not already updated. This ensures that even if you don’t take any steps your LAND(S) will be prepared and ready for L2. To repeat, even if you don’t migrate your LAND or LANDS manually, The Sandbox will automatically migrate your LAND(S) to the new smart contract on April 27, 2022. So you don’t need to do a thing if you don’t want to — but if you prefer to update your LANDS yourself, we’ll remind you how to do it. Not sure if your LAND(S) are migrated to the new smart contract? If you want to check on your LAND(S) and manually migrate any LANDS that haven’t been updated to the new smart contract ahead of time you can do so through the following steps: To check if your LAND(S) are migrated to the new smart contract: First, you need to connect with your The Sandbox account that is linked to the wallet that holds the LAND token(s) Then go to https://sandbox.game/en/me/migration to see the respective contract status for each LAND you own If you see a green checkmark with the message, “All your LANDs have been successfully migrated,” you’re good to go. Congratulations and good job! However, if you see an image like the one below, you can take action to migrate your LAND(S). If you see any LAND(S) listed under the old contract, proceed by clicking the blue “Migrate All My LANDS To The New Contract” button Follow the onscreen instructions There is no gas cost to you for the migration — The Sandbox will cover all fees for this https://medium.com/media/02a8650440312c2b9c856f5d75b73e99/href Closing Thoughts We hope this solution will make the migration process easy and pain-free. However, if you need any additional support to manually migrate your LAND tokens, please contact us through any of the following channels: Discord — [https://discord.gg/thesandboxgame] Telegram — [@sandboxgame] Mail — [migration@sandbox.game] We know that any migration process can cause a little stress. In this case, though, the benefits of using L2 are worth it, and we’ll help you get through the process, including automatically migrating your LAND(S) to the new smart contract if necessary. Thank you for your support and understanding, and we’ll see you in the metaverse.

About The CreatorMeta Dungeon, supported and funded by The Sandbox, is developed by RTKFT. Here’s a little bit of what their team had to say: NoKSsMy name is Nicolas, I currently live in France and I have been a pro player on Overwatch, Fortnite and have been a full time streamer until mid-2021. I started making games when the Fortnite creative mode came out. I soon started working with Gotaga in France, doing collaborations with streamers; I also collaborated with NVIDIA, Red Bull, Ninja, Jul, and so on. When RTFKT offered me a chance to work with them on The Sandbox, I immediately accepted and here I am. So for the Game Maker, there are a lot of things that I like despite the little minor bugs, but I know it’s in development.GunterHi, I’m Gunter and I am a voxel artist working on RTFKT’s Meta Dungeon. Prior to this, I have over a year of experience making voxel art, as well as being a Sandbox’s Creator Fund artist. Some of my featured assets include the Boombot (Summer Music Festival Sale) and Bathing Ape (Summer Pool Party Sale). Personally I think, VoxEdit is a very versatile 3D voxel modeller and animator. It is simple enough for anyone to pick it up and is also very enjoyable to use!AlexHi, I’m æ (aka aeaea) and it’s been a year since I started creating games with The Sandbox Game Maker. I’m the creator behind The Meow Glitch, and now part of the team that created RTFKT Meta Dungeon. Over the years I’ve led the creative direction of experiences and games for clients like Audi, and the Berlin Video Game Museum (for which I was awarded two Cannes Lions). I love the fact that The Sandbox Game Maker is simple enough to use that anyone can learn to create environments, characters and stories in the Metaverse, yet complex enough to feel like you’re always mastering it.KrywI’m Kryw and I actually work as a Level Designer and storyteller at RTFKT Studios. In the past I was a professional player on Shootmania & Overwatch, where I won a lot of big LAN Tournaments. When Fortnite Creative was released, with Nokss we started to build together to do some brand maps for Gotaga. And now working on The Sandbox since last summer, this editor has huge potential for an early stage, but few things can be enhanced like doing maps with other people at the same time, but great tools need time right?

The more the community stakes, the higher the Alpha Season reward (details here). And for you personally, the rewards are even better. 1 point equals 1 mSAND staked for the duration of the Alpha Season 2 so 28 days. The maximum amount of raffle tickets you can get through staking is 200. To get the maximum 200 tickets, you will need to collect a total of 400 points. The Sandbox Alpha Season 2 reward is of 500 $SAND.If the Community Booster reaches +100%, the $SAND rewards will thus be 1,000 $SAND for all Season 2 Alpha Pass holders.However, if the Community Booster reaches less than the maximum boost, the amount that has been reached will still be added to the 500 $SAND rewards. For instance, if the Community Booster reaches +40% by the end of the Season, then the $SAND rewards will reflect that booster: for instance if the community booster reaches +40% then the final rewards for season 2 will be 700 $SAND)By staking 200 mSAND during the whole Alpha Season 2 (March 3–31), you’ll earn 100 raffle ticketsBy staking 400 mSAND during the whole Alpha Season 2, you’ll earn 200 raffle ticketsBy staking 800 mSAND for half the Alpha Season 2 (two weeks; shorter duration but a larger amount) you can also earn 200 raffle tickets.If you did not start staking on day one, worry not!
