Important Bricks upgrades happening today!

TL;DR In a major upgrade, Bricks are moving to a new home today! We expect the migration will take several hours. During this time, you will not be able to use Bricks. We will update this post when the migration is complete.

If you have Bricks in your Vault, you don’t need to do anything. They should be transferred over seamlessly. If you have moved Bricks out of the Vault, see the instructions below for how to transfer them to the new network after the migration is complete.

Hi r/FortNiteBR!

Ever since we launched Bricks a year ago, we’ve been blown away by the love you’ve shown them, and we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to grow them further.

One of the great things about Bricks is that they live on the blockchain, where they are owned entirely by you. Currently they are in beta, which means they are on a test blockchain (called Rinkeby), and one of our main goals has been to get them to the main Ethereum blockchain so that millions of redditors can also experience Community Points.

Today, we are excited to launch a new scaling network for Bricks! This is a major step to bringing Bricks to the main Ethereum blockchain, and we’ll be migrating Bricks to their new home over the next several hours. During this time, you will not be able to use Bricks. We will update this post when the migration is complete.

If your Bricks are in your Vault, then they should be transferred over seamlessly once the migration is complete. While we recommend using the Vault built into the Reddit app to store Bricks, we realize some people might have moved their Bricks to other wallets (software & hardware). If you have Bricks somewhere other than the Vault, you will be able to use a tool to transfer them to the scaling network after the migration is complete. We will update this post with a link to the tool when it is ready.

As part of this scaling launch, we’ve also made a few other upgrades to Bricks. You’ll notice transactions happen much faster, and once you’ve created a Vault you won’t have to keep claiming Bricks every month. They’ll just show up in your Vault like magic!

We’re very excited to be working with this community as we take Bricks to the next level. Thanks for all your support!
