Yuga Labs, creators of the Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs, have announced a groundbreaking partnership with Somnia, an emerging powerhouse in blockchain technology designed specifically for the metaverse.
This collaboration aims to dramatically enhance the interoperability across the expansive digital realms of Yuga Labs’ Otherside.
Yuga Labs and Somnia Will Optimize the Otherside Metaverse
Somnia’s high-performance L1 blockchain and innovative omni-chain protocols support hundreds of millions of transactions per second, setting a new standard for connectivity within the metaverse and gaming ecosystems.
By leveraging these technologies, Yuga Labs will provide its NFT holders, including those from the Bored Ape Yacht Club and Mutant Ape Yacht Club, enhanced utility and new incentives.
The partnership will integrate the Somnia Protocol into the Otherside metaverse, increasing the functionality of digital assets. In addition, it will allow avatars to participate in various metaverse events.

Yuga collection owners will now have the privilege to showcase their NFTs, engage in quests, and earn bonus points on the newly launched Metaverse Browser—a decentralized portal analogous to popular gaming platforms like Steam.
This browser simplifies user interaction with metaverses and applications within the Somnia Ecosystem without requiring prior knowledge of web3 technology.
Its open design promises an inclusive metaverse experience, allowing content creators to deploy their applications freely. Paul Thomas, founder of Somnia, said:
“Our collaboration with Yuga Labs is all about enhancing the NFT ecosystem, offering their holders not just utility, but a gateway to immersive, interactive experiences that push the boundaries of what NFTs can do.”
