Yoroi, a light-client wallet initially designed for Cardano and Ergo, has announced it will be sunsetting its support for the ERG token, Ergo Platform's official cryptocurrency, in the coming months.

The team says this was part of its ongoing efforts to improve and update the Yoroi wallet for the growing Cardano ecosystem. It urges ERG holders to migrate or import their wallets over to a compatible one and says it will have more information regarding the deadline in the coming weeks.

Yoroi would now be an open-source and light wallet built for Cardano ADA users, intended to be a gateway to Cardano's Web3 ecosystem of dApps, including DeFi and NFTs.

Yoroi Wallet, which has been in development since 2018, is seeing new improvements to keep up with the rapidly growing Cardano user base. In November 2022, it began a phased approach toward this objective with the first phase of Yoroi's performance improvement plan being put into action.

As stated in a tweet, the move to sunset ERG support was part of a larger effort to execute important upgrades to Yoroi's infrastructure and to provide a greatly improved user experience.

The Yoroi team also believes this would allow it to further improve its ability to provide the architectural improvements needed to position Yoroi for long-term growth and stability.
