“NFTs in the Head5 collection have utility far beyond PFP, integrating different genres and opening up the metaverse to deadmau5’s legions of fans,” said Barney Chambers, co-founder of Umbria Network. “By electing to deploy their NFTs on the Polygon network, Head5 is alleviating high gas fees and speeding up transactions without sacrificing security; Umbria provides the last piece of the puzzle. The Narni bridge increases access from the Ethereum network, onboarding users more cheaply, quickly and with greater technical support.”
