Non-fungible token project y00ts is again switching blockchain networks, only four months after bridging the majority of its NFTs from Solana to Polygon.

“We still love Polygon. It’s just time to unite the DeGods & y00ts communities,” y00ts wrote in a statement.

The team has also disclosed it will be returning a $3 million grant from Polygon Labs, which it had received in January from the blockchain firm to support its migration.

“We’re returning 100% of the grant provided by Polygon. The funds will be re-deployed for NFT ecosystem growth to empower builders and creators,” it said.

The news was met with mixed reactions by members of the NFT community.

Some industry pundits offered their support and backing behind NFT project founder FrankDeGods, while others expressed concern about the seemingly diminishing state of Polygon’s NFT ecosystem.

According to NFT Price Floor, DeGods and y00ts currently boast the 6th and 22nd highest floor prices at 8.66 ETH ($16,065) and 1.35 ETH ($2,465) respectively.
