According to Y00ts, moving to Solana allowed it to access a larger network of collectors throughout the entire Ethereum community.
The project will coexist on the Polygon network with tens of thousands of dApps, some of the largest Web3 initiatives like Aave, Uniswap and OpenSea, as well as well-known companies like Robinhood, Stripe and Adobe.
In December 2022, Dust Labs, a non-fungible token (NFT) company, announced that it was migrating its two top-performing Solana NFT projects — DeGods and Y00ts — away from the blockchain.
DeGods migrated to the Ethereum blockchain, while Y00ts moved to Polygon.

HNT, MOBILE and IOT, which will continue to be tokens of the Helium ecosystem, will now be issued on the Solana network.
The Helium Network’s transition to the Solana blockchain will result in all hotspots automatically becoming Solana NFTs.
Migration to Solana will start at 9 a.m. PST on April 18, 2023. A 48-hour window has been set aside by the team to finish the migration. The action is in response to a September community vote in which 81% of Helium community members supported the migration.
