Axie Infinity (AXS) - A Gaming Marvel
Axie Infinity (AXS) displayed remarkable resilience, surging by 12% in the last seven days, reaching $6.88. This momentum propelled AXS to a six-month high of $7.55 over the weekend, marking a 35% increase in the past month. Despite Axie's game token, Smooth Love Potion (SLP), experiencing a 9% dip this week, it remains up by 17% compared to the last 30 days.
Developer Sky Mavis fueled Axie's success with strategic moves, such as reintroducing the original Axie battling experience ("Axie Classic") and launching official Axie merchandise. Owners of rare Axie NFTs gained commercialization rights, allowing them to transform their creatures into tangible projects.
Axie's resurgence is also attributed to the growing popularity of Ronin, its Ethereum sidechain network tailored for blockchain gaming. The recent launch of the Pixels game contributed to a surge in Ronin adoption, propelling the RON token by 27% in the past week, now priced at $1.06—an impressive doubling in value over the last 30 days.
