LONDON, Dec. 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Umbria
Network has augmented its position in the NFT space with its
second phase of partnerships.
The protocol has introduced its novel Narni cross-chain
liquidity bridge to a wider NFT audience via collaborations
with innovative projects that are minting and selling on the
Polygon blockchain. When buying NFTs on a Polygon marketplace such
as OpenSea, users must bridge their Ether (ETH) to Polygon ETH,
known as Wrapped ETH (WETH). Umbria's Narni bridge facilitates this
cross-chain transaction substantially faster and cheaper than
similar bridges. It typically takes less
than four minutes and often costs just $4-$9 to transfer assets from the Ethereum
to the Polygon network.
Umbria Network is pleased to partner with the following NFT
projects, who endorse the Narni Bridge and promote it to their
communities as the fastest and cheapest method for bridging
crypto.
Frontyard Baseball is a P2E gaming NFT with a focus
on giving back to youth sports programs within communities. There
are only 25,000 players available each with their own special
attributes. $125,000 will be donated
through the minting process to an underprivileged youth sports
charity of the community's choosing. 50% of all royalties on
OpenSea will go to the same charity. After the sellout, Frontyard
Baseball will be giving away a Tesla to a random holder in the
community. Its gameplay is a 9v9 simulated baseball game to play
against your NFT friends.

Beluga Bay is a project of 12,000 whales in six fun
collections. Because we chose Polygon, we are able to do fun
activities with our NFTs like land ownership inside Beluga Bay,
breeding, and questing. In addition to our fun project, Beluga
Bay Foundation hosts a Polygon NFT Community and Projects
Twitter Spaces daily from 2 - 4 PM
EST featuring 500+ NFT projects that have migrated to
Polygon. In early December, Beluga Bay was rewarded with an
exciting grant opportunity that will cover the infrastructure
needed to build a community-based polygon-specific ecosystem.
Beluga Bay is involved with various charity organizations focused
on cancer and ocean cleanup. We are very happy to be partnered
with Umbria for all of our
bridging needs.

PolyChainPunks are 8,888 left facing punks that live
on the Polygon Chain. The Human species lived peacefully until the
Alien faction invaded. The 3 Alien factions are the Greens, they
are mostly neutral and peace loving, the Blues were just and loyal
and in charge of keeping the order; then there are the Reds, the
violent, warmonger faction.
Will the PolyChainPunks and Aliens learn to live in
harmony? Will there be war in the Polygon Chain? Find out for
yourself, own a Season 1 PolyChainPunk for a spot on Season 2.

Additionally, Umbria Network is proud to announce its
partnership with Clover Finance. The Narni Bridge widget,
integrated by Clover Finance, will enable users of the Clover
Wallet to easily migrate their assets between the Ethereum and
Polygon networks extremely cheaply and quickly.
"Increasing numbers of projects are electing to deploy their
NFTs on Polygon due to the advantages in transaction-cost and speed
compared to Ethereum. Umbria
provides the final piece of the puzzle by enabling communities to
onboard to Polygon very quickly and cheaply. The word is getting
out and we're seeing rapid uptake of Narni," said Barney Chambers, Co-lead Developer
at Umbria. "The NFT space is developing apace and it's great
to see more NFTs with use cases beyond their intrinsic
scarcity plus the addition of gamification elements; this
will undoubtedly be a catalyst for further Narni usage."
