The Ronin Treasury plans to buy back $4 million worth of RON tokens to decrease circulating supply and potentially boost prices. The treasury currently holds $5.5 million, with 693 million RON tokens in circulation. The buyback represents 1.3% of the circulating supply, funded by fees from various services over the years.
Ronin Network recently announced its return as a layer-2 network on Ethereum after being spun off in 2021 for faster speeds and lower fees. The network aims to capitalize on Ethereum’s growth, following a hack in March 2022 that led to a decline in total value locked. RON prices spiked 11% post-announcement but have since fallen back to $0.51.
RON token prices reacted positively to the buyback news, spiking 11% to $0.54 before settling at $0.51. This marks an 88% drop from its all-time high in March 2024. Despite trading flat for the past six months, Ronin’s return to Ethereum signals potential growth and alignment with the Web3 gaming ecosystem.
