Forma is a creator-centric mainnet where gas is paid in TIA, purpose-built for onchain art, generative media, and large-scale NFT minting. It enables low-cost drops, programmable editions and royalties, and interactive mint mechanics, with seamless cross-chain distribution via IBC and major Ethereum bridges.
Forma’s differentiators are TIA-denominated fees, Celestia-powered data availability, and fast-finality throughput optimized for high-volume art mints. Typical mainnet performance: average gas per mint under 0.001 TIA, ~1s block times, sustained 50–150 TPS with higher burst capacity, and strong activity during curated drops—delivering 10–100x lower fees and faster confirmations than Ethereum L1 while remaining IBC- and bridge-native.
Forma uses TIA as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain TIA by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge TIA to Forma, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select Forma as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
