What is the phenomenon of Axie Infinity, an NFT game about trading in cute animals with a turnover of over $1 billion

This year, amid the growing popularity of NFTs, there was a boom in decentralized games. The main hit in this market was the Vietnamese Axie Infinity allows you to breed and sell cute creatures. We are talking about the phenomenon of the project, which has a turnover of over $1 billion in trade operations and actually creates virtual jobs for young people.

Axie Infinity

About the game

Axie Infinity is a decentralized game created by the Vietnamese studio Sky Mavis . In it, users breed and collect «axi» creatures. One of the sources of inspiration for the project was the franchise Pokémon , however the mechanics in Axie Infinity are still different.

Each axi goes through a kind of evolution — from an egg to a full-fledged adult. The gameplay of the game consists of three main elements:

  • breeding of creatures — growing eggs and crossing adult axi to get new ones;
  • battles with other players — each axi has its own characteristics and abilities that can be used in battle. The battles here are turn-based and resemble card battlers;
  • axi trade — users can trade their creatures on the marketplace. You can sell both adult creatures and the eggs themselves. Also, players can give each other gifts and buy in-game land.

Battles in Axie Infinity

Monetization and internal currency

All major operations within Axie Infinity are performed using special AXS tokens. They are trading in the region of $70 apiece, and on August 11, the currency set a new high of $75.7.

AXS is at its peak right now. Over the past 90 days, the value of one token has skyrocketed by 934% against the dollar, and by 840% against Bitcoin.

In Axie Infinity, new players do not receive a starter set of creatures — they have to be bought on the market for real money. In fact, each axi is a separate NFT, the ownership of which is assigned to the user.

Just a few months ago, you could start playing Axie Infinity with just $5-10. With the growing popularity of the project and the AXS course, the entry threshold has increased dramatically. Now the cost of the simplest starting axis is $100-$200. The price of especially rare individuals can reach several thousand dollars.

Axie Infinity Marketplace

Axie Infinity developers do not get all the money from selling axis on the marketplace. Instead, tokens are distributed among players and accumulated in a special treasury, which is the basis of the in-game economy. Users are charged a commission for internal payments and breeding of creatures (each new crossing is more expensive than the previous one).

However, the main component of income is the sale and purchase of land. This is the territory where users manage their axes, expand their holdings and collect rare resources. Gameplay-wise, this aspect of the game is somewhat reminiscent of farm simulators. Sometimes you can find AXS tokens on your land plots.

Thus, Axie Infinity developed its own economy built around the principle of «play to earn» (play to earn). On this basis, it falls under the definition of the metaverse, and the developers intend to develop the project in this direction.

Axie Infinity record metrics

  • 0102 Ethereum and Bitcoin .
  • Axie Infinity’s total trading volume exceeded $1 billion last week, making it the highest-grossing NFT game on the market.
  • In the last 30 days alone, Axie Infinity generated 1.5 million transactions for a total of $815 million.
  • On August 6, the DAU of the project reached 1 million users. Although in June this figure was only 108 thousand players, and in July last year it was below 500 people.
  • The most expensive axi in the game was a creature named Sir Gregory. It was sold for 369ETH (about $819 thousand).

The Axie Infinity Phenomenon in the Philippines

Axie Infinity has become especially popular in the Philippines. Now the inhabitants of this country make up the majority of the users of the NFT game. And this is largely due to the deteriorating economic situation.

In recent years, young Filipinos have become one of the fastest growing communities in the world. They went to developed countries to earn money and feed their families. However, after the first lockdowns, many of them were left without work and were forced to return to their homeland.

This has led to high competition for jobs in the Philippines. Young people were forced to take low-paid jobs. And unexpectedly, Axie Infinity came to their aid, which began to gain popularity at the end of last year.

According to the BloomX cryptocurrency exchange, each user in Axie Infinity can earn an average of 4500 thousand SLP per month (the game’s secondary currency). If we take the SLP exchange rate for July, Philippine players can bring about 2 billion local pesos (about $39.6 million) to the country’s economy every month.

Thus, young citizens of the Philippines began en masse to retrain as professional players in Axie Inifinty. Against the backdrop of the growing popularity of the project in the country, a new term has even appeared — the “Filipino worker of the metaverse” (Metaverse Filipino Worker).

Axie Inifnity unexpectedly created new virtual jobs for Filipinos. Many young citizens choose to play as their main activity, as they no longer have to go to work and do backbreaking work.

Some users were able to earn more money in just three months in Axie Infinity than in three years of full-time work abroad. Others have even managed to buy new homes for their families.

Despite the growing popularity of Axie Infinity, the project now has its own problems. Due to the influx of players, the servers are often unable to cope with the load, which leads to frequent shutdowns and forces the studio to allocate more funds for support.
