The list of previous winners includes Acala, Moonbeam, Astar, Parallel Finance, and Clover Finance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In a process that saw members of the community agreeing to lock up some of their DOT, Polkadot&#8217;s native token for the 96-week lease period, Efinity won against 11 other Layer 1 blockchains. The competition included: Ares Odyssey, Darwinia, Crust, Equilibrium, Litentry, SubGame Gamma, Composable Finance, Nodle, Coinversation, Centrifuge, and Interlay.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In a tweet, Enjin revealed that to win the coveted Parachain slot, they got contributions from 20,000 community members, which got them around 7.7 million DOT.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWith 7.7M $DOT contributed by over 20,000 community members, @efinityio has won the 6th @Polkadot&nbsp; parachain auction!

Over 8.6K network, stakeholders locked up DOT in favor!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Efinity is a layer 1 blockchain that aims to solve problems like tear-jerking fees, difficulty in smart contract applications, and interoperability in the NFT ecosystem. As a parachain, it will be independent but also have the ability to communicate with other chains in the network.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Rise Of NFTs And Enjin&#8217;s Role<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Beeple&#8217;s \u201cEverydays: The First 5000 Days\u201d was auctioned off for an impressive $69.3 million in March 2021 at Christie&#8217;s.
