This week was filled with important actions and successes for Axie Infinity and Ronin, the oracles. This demonstrates how they are improving and adding new features and gears to the system. Origins Season 8 (S8) Preseason was presented at the beginning of the week, which is an approach to the league’s primary season for fans who wish to start the season on a positive note.
This 10-day preseason not only lets players shake off the rust but also gives the Axie team the time they need to perfect and test any feature modifications, ensuring a smooth transition when Season 8 begins.
On Thursday, the momentum accelerated with a major announcement from Coinbase, one of the world’s top Bitcoin exchange platforms. Coinbase might now provide 73 million registered users with direct access to the $RON (RONIN) cryptocurrency by allowing them to purchase it via their Coinbase wallets. This integration allows the coin to obtain a broader distribution and traceability, which more investors may accept. Thus, tokenization inherently generates more cryptocurrency holders and communities in general.
However, in addition to the Coinbase listing, the Ronin Network hosted a decentralized exchange on Thursday, introducing the YGG token to Katana. Yield Guild Games (YGG), which specializes in purchasing NFTs linked with virtual worlds and blockchain games, celebrated this achievement by airdropping tokens to its delegators and those who delegated their $RON to the YGG Validator as an added incentive. This brought together investors in the ecosystem.
To make matters even better, the second piece of news of the day was about the upcoming CyberKongz Rogue Play & Kollect (PnK) game for Ronin. This upgrade is aimed to significantly broaden the gameplay experience and interaction inside the Ronin network, as well as to increase its utility among users and recreational players.
Finally, on Friday, the Tournament Alpha for the Guild Leaderboard Season 1 was released. These first rounds are an excellent opportunity for players to demonstrate their abilities and compete against one another for appealing rewards, as well as the possibility of conquering Lunacia. The leaderboard challenge, which will last three weeks, is intended to enthrall committed Axis followers.
Based on this week’s successes, Axie Infinity and Ronin are not playing for incremental gains, but rather for breaking new ground in terms of what is possible inside their ecosystem. Strategic listings, game debuts, and competitive tournaments are gradually enhancing user experience and engagement, allowing them to maintain their places in blockchain and gaming communities.
As these occurrences play out, the question remains: did they just improve 1% this week? Given the advances made, the answer is a resounding yes to the future of Axie Infinity and the Ronin blockchain.
