    So just for everyone’s info, this Douche Jihoz’s Axie Infinity was played by normal people and it helped sky rocketed Axie Infinity to be mainstream. Then he modifies the game earnings so that the game is competitive so these normal non-gamer people are not allowed to play the game and earn anymore. Look it up if you don’t believe this random guy from the internet.

    Axie Infinity is not doing anything new or different than what Second Life used to offer from 2004.

    For people saying this is the future of jobs and economy. What economic value are they creating?

    After releasing the “Business Patch” he then says he’s out there helping people? get outta here. Not like Axies will be used in either of the metaverses.

    Everybody seem to have their own definition of what the metaverse is, hence it has become a meaningless word. Neil Stephenson coined the term metaverse in his book “Snow Crash” from 1992, along with a great story about what it actually is.

    one point i like to make….he said it’s work and people get paid for gaming, which I don’t disagree. But it doesn’t produce anything for the physical world and there is really no benefit for society from the work done in the Metaverse.

    AXS as the economy, that’s the goal of the devs, but in actuality, SLP is what 99% of players are going for due to the food to the table loophole. It brought down the economy, inflation, biggest problem of the devs now, people not playing the game the way they intended.

    To get the economy going, SLP should be for breeding not for everyone to cash it out, but by not having this loophole, well the game sucks with it’s gameplay simplicity and design and no one will play it, so catch 22. What made them rich and popular is what they’re trying hard to remove now, like halving the SLP rewards last August for starter, not to mention $0.50 down to a mere $0.07 and still going down to no value.

      November 13, 2021 at 5:37 pm

      Not an intended scam, just incompetent devs. The income of the 99% of all players are going down continuously (SLP cashers), yet the millionaires (main AXS holders) are being given millions of dollars. And the upcoming changes will drastically further remove the money making capability of the scholars. Again, #FoodToTheTableLoophole

    If only there’s a free version of it where u can’t earn real money because it’s free, it would be amazing so for those who are still trying to learn the game, would get a grasp by playing the free version

    Axie Infinity revolutionized the world of gaming by earning while you play. Sounds easy but you have to be competitive by building a team that can complete.
