TL;DR
-
Myria ceases L2 node operations, migrates platform to Ethereum L1.
-
Holders must manually bridge assets to L1 wallet by 27/04/2026.
-
Unbridged assets after deadline will be irrecoverable due to security protocols.
Myria just pulled the plug on its Layer 2 node operations. The gaming infrastructure provider announced the shutdown through a simple tweet and an email. No detailed guide. No step-by-step migration support. Node operators now have until April 27, 2026 to manually bridge their assets from L2 to Ethereum L1. Miss the deadline, and the funds become permanently inaccessible. Myria says it cannot help with the bridging process for security reasons. Operators are on their own.
Myria is moving its mission to ETH L1.
We advise members to bridge assets from L2 to L1 before April 27.
Node operators, you’ve got mail – check your inbox for what this means for you.

The company plans to focus on Ethereum L1 instead. Remaining node emission tokens from the L2 will arrive in node owners’ registered L1 wallets within three to five business days. That part happens automatically. The rest does not. Every asset sitting on Myria’s L2 requires a manual transfer. The company provides no comprehensive resources to navigate the transition. A tweet and an email represent the full extent of the support package.
The math behind the Myria collapse
MYRIA tokens tell the real story. The token price dropped 99.69% since July 2024. A node operator earning 1,108 MYRIA per day receives roughly $0.045 worth of tokens. That daily income does not cover the cost of running a virtual private server, let alone the initial node license fee. Myria continues selling node licenses at $6,400 each, even as it phases out the entire L2 infrastructure.
The timing raises obvious questions. Why sell licenses for a network that the company plans to abandon? How many operators bought in during the final months without knowing the shutdown was coming? Myria’s public engagement slowed down considerably before the announcement. Few updates. Less communication. The silence now makes sense.
A warning for anyone buying node licenses
Node operators made significant financial commitments to Myria. The company’s minimalist communication approach treats those commitments lightly. No phone support. No migration tool. No video walkthrough. Just a deadline and a warning. Operators who fail to bridge their assets before April 27 lose everything. Myria accepts no responsibility.
The profitability of running a Myria node was already questionable. Daily earnings of $0.045 cannot justify operational expenses. The 99.69% price decline wiped out any reasonable return on investment. Node operators who bought licenses at $6,400 now hold a nearly worthless asset and face a complex manual migration with no help. Some will inevitably make mistakes and lose funds.
Myria calls the move a refocus on Ethereum L1. But the execution reveals a different priority. The company takes care of distributing remaining emission tokens automatically. It leaves the messy work of asset bridging to individual operators. No safety net. No fallback. No customer service.
The crypto industry has seen this pattern before. Projects launch node networks, sell licenses, then abandon the infrastructure when token prices collapse. Operators hold the bag. Myria follows the same playbook. The April 27 deadline will pass, and some funds will never make it to L1. The company will point to the announcement and say it warned everyone. The warning came in a tweet. That is not support. That is a disclaimer.
