How to Buy METIS with a Credit or Debit Card Instantly

Built on the Ethereum blockchain, Metis utilizes roll-up technology to optimize the process of transaction validation on the main network. Just like other layer 2 (L2) blockchains, Metis allows developers to build decentralized applications (dApps) that can potentially benefit from quicker processing times and lower fees.

The project’s native cryptocurrency, METIS, fuels the Metis ecosystem. Users can pay transaction fees with METIS and stake it to earn rewards within Decentralized Autonomous Companies (DACs). With a growing adoption rate, Metis offers an attractive avenue for developers seeking to build scalable dApps.
