DeGods founder ‘Frank’ Thies returned to Solana with a bridge test painting

DeGods, the NFT project that once held the highest market cap on Solana, is considering a return to its original blockchain.

Founder Rohan Vohra, who goes by the pseudonym Frank, recently shared a test image of NFTs back to Solana, indicating the possibility of a return to the platform where he first gained popularity.

When DeGods launched in late 2021, Solana was approaching its peak value, and the NFT ecosystem was growing rapidly. However, by the time Solana became the most valuable large-scale NFT project, SOL had fallen significantly in value, and the broader NFT market was experiencing a downturn. DeGods first announced that it would be leaving Solana in December 2022 and migrating to Ethereum. This decision follows a tumultuous year for Solana in not only long-term service for Solana, but also in the turmoil at crypto exchange FTX, which collapsed due to Layer 1 blockchain tampering. Vohra said:

“There is an argument. [DeGods] Closed on Solana. It's hard to admit, but it was hard to grow as much as we wanted to grow. If we have to go to continue growing Ethereum, we have to.

Now, with the landscape potentially changing again, the project is exploring the possibility of returning to its roots in Solana, where the journey began. The news has sparked mixed reactions, with some expressing skepticism and criticism of the idea of ​​moving back and forth between blockchains.
