A New Era of Incentives: How bAXS Is Reshaping Axie Infinity

Axie Infinity has launched bAXS, a non-transferable token tied directly to user accounts and fully backed 1:1 by AXS. Unlike tradable tokens, bAXS remains off open markets, designed to stabilize rewards and curb inflation while preserving value for genuine players.

A Strategic Shift Against Inflation

Blockchain games often struggle with economic sustainability due to excessive token emissions. By isolating a portion of rewards in the form of bAXS—usable for future claims or in-game benefits—the system reduces circulating supply pressure and promotes long-term engagement.

SLP Overhaul Complements the Change

Alongside bAXS, reward mechanics for SLP in Axie Infinity Origins have been refined. The update discourages exploit-driven farming and supports healthier gameplay patterns, aligning incentives with sustainable participation.

Market Responds with Strong Gains

  • AXS: Surged 52.2% to $2.06
  • RONIN: Up 16.2% at $0.184
  • SAND: Rose 15.6% to $0.1504

The upgrades have reignited investor confidence, fueling a broader rally across blockchain gaming and metaverse assets.

Toward a More Sustainable Game Economy

The introduction of bAXS marks a pivotal shift—from short-term reward chasing to long-term value retention. As the ecosystem evolves, it sets a new benchmark for economic design in next-gen Web3 games.
