State of $GODS Token After zkEVM Migration
A few days ago, Gods Unchained started the long-awaited migration to the Immutable zkEVM chain. While the card migration is moving slowly but steadily, the situation with the $GODS token is more complicated and unstable right now.
This post will explain what’s happening with $GODS, and also give you a simple explanation of important concepts like zkEVM vs Immutable X, MetaMask vs Passport, and what swap, transfer, and bridge mean. I also added real observations and tools you can use now.
✅ Immutable X (IMX)
- Built on Ethereum Layer 2 using StarkWare.
- Fast with zero gas fees.
- Used mainly for NFT trading and minting.
- Does not support smart contracts.
✅ Immutable zkEVM
- Full support for smart contracts.
- Still Layer 2, so it has very low gas fees, but not free.
- Much better for building games and dApps.
- You can add it to your MetaMask like any other EVM network.
📌 So: IMX is fast and free, but limited. zkEVM is more powerful, supports real DeFi, and can do everything Ethereum can — just cheaper.
MetaMask vs Passport
🦊 MetaMask
Browser wallet.
Works on many blockchains, including zkEVM.
You control everything — also the gas.
You must switch networks and manage tokens manually.
Note: after migration the same address is used to store cards and $Gods rewards, just on differend chain: zkEvm
🎮 Immutable Passport
- New wallet made by IMX team for gamers.
- One-click login. No passwords, no seed phrase.
- Gas is sponsored by the IMX — zero fees.
💸 Swap, Transfer, Bridge — What’s the Difference?
🔁 Swap
Change one token into another on the same network.
Example: swap $GODS for $ETH on zkEVM using a DEX.
📤 Transfer
Send a token from your wallet to another wallet on the same network.
Example: send $GODS to a friend’s wallet on zkEVM.
🌉 Bridge
Move tokens between two different blockchains (like Ethereum to zkEVM).
Example: bridge $ETH from Ethereum to zkEVM.
📌 Bridges are slow and risky. Always double-check you’re using the official bridge provider
⚠️ Current Problems with $GODS Token
The $GODS token now exists on zkEVM, and the contract address is the same as on the old chain — which is good. But there are serious liquidity problems:
- There’s very little liquidity, so swapping big amounts will wreck your value.
- $GODS balances reported by IMX or the game are often delayed or wrong.
- Gods Unchained rewards now go to your zkEVM wallet, but many users report they don’t arrive on time.
- Some wallets show zero balance, even if you received the tokens.
📌 I recommend: Be patient. Don’t panic. Wait until liquidity and tools improve.
💡 How to Trade $GODS Smartly
You can already trade $GODS on https://imx.center — it now supports zkEVM and:
- Shows your balance correctly for both MetaMask and Passport.
- Supports the official IMX swap/transfer/onramp tools.
- Pulls price info from outside IMX, so it's more accurate.
⚠️ Very low liquidity means the price changes with every trade. You can:
- Lose a lot if you try to buy/sell more than $5–10 worth.
- But you can also profit by selling small amounts like 1–5 $GODS at higher prices — even x2.
So, monitor the price, act carefully, and maybe earn a bit from this unstable market.
🛠️ Community Auctions
I know it’s hard now — some people need to buy or sell $GODS to get sealed tickets or cards. That’s why this week I will be creating:
Buy/Sell $GODS Auctions on imx.center to provide some liquidity.
I'm offering what little I have on zkEVM to help out.
🤝 I encourage YOU to list your own auctions too! This is how we keep the community alive in hard times.
🧷 Final Advice
- Use MetaMask or Passport, whatever works for you.
- Only bridge or swap using official providers and tools.
- Keep an eye on imx.center Auctions — it's working well post-migration with NFTs and tokens.
- Be patient — things will stabilize with time.
We’re in transition now, and it’s not smooth. But with some care and community effort, we can get through it together.
Stay safe
