Baek Kim, Senior Associate at Hashed, says Efinity will make it possible for creators "to mint multi-chain tokens and move them to other compatible blockchains hassle-free."

As Enjin said in its recent announcement, Efinity will enable NFTs to be utilized by virtually any industry, unlocking "potentially trillions of dollars in currently illiquid and unique real-world and digital assets."

"Building with Polkadot will enable us to deliver an accessible, scalable solution that empowers everyone to participate in the emerging NFT economy," said Caleb Applegate, Enjin COO.

Ilija Rolovic, Chief Growth Officer at Enjin, says Efinity will be capable of processing up to 700-1,000 tps (transactions per second) on current benchmarks. The Ethereum network, for instance, can handle approximately 15 TPS so far.
