NFT-based online video game
Axie Infinity is a turn-based card game developed by Sky Mavis. It allows players to breed, raise, battle, and trade Axie creatures. In mid-2021, Axie Infinity became popular and sparked a gamefi boom. Players can earn two tokens: Axie Infinity Shards (AXS) and Small Love Potions (SLP) when playing Axie Infinity in Adventure or Arena modes. AXS serves as a governance token, allowing token holders to vote on the future development of the gaming experience. SLP is the in-game token used for breeding Axies.

Odaily Odaily Planet Daily reports, Ronin, the gaming-focused blockchain behind Axie Infinity, will migrate from an independent sidechain to an Ethereum Layer 2 network (L2) via a hard fork on May 12. The upgrade adopts the OP Stack architecture and is expected to trigger approximately 10 hours of network downtime, during which transfers, swaps, contract interactions, and on-chain gaming activities will all be paused.This upgrade simultaneously introduces the Proof of Distribution mechanism, which automatically rewards ecosystem builders based on their actual network contributions. In terms of tokenomics, RON's inflation rate will be drastically reduced from over 20% to below 1%; the 90 million RON originally allocated for staking rewards will be transferred to the treasury fund; and the market fee will be increased from 0.5% to 1.25% to enhance network security, scalability, and long-term economic stability.
