What is Axie-infinity?

Axie Infinity is a blockchain-based game where players collect, breed, and battle fantasy creatures called Axies. Built on Ethereum with the Ronin sidechain to reduce fees, it enables players to earn tokens through battles, quests, and breeding, creating a vibrant play-to-earn economy with NFT Axies and items, plus the AXS governance token and SLP utility token.

Why does Axie-infinity have inflation?

Inflation in Axie Infinity mainly stems from the ongoing minting of the SLP (Smooth Love Potion) token as daily play-to-earn rewards and to fund Axie breeding, which increases token supply as player activity grows. While SLP is burned through breeding, the minting rate can outpace demand at times, creating inflationary pressure in the ecosystem.

How is Axie-infinity inflation calculated?

Axie-infinity inflation is calculated by comparing the circulating supply from one year ago to today’s supply. The percentage increase in supply over that period is the annual inflation rate. Learn more in our guide: What is cryptocurrency inflation?.

How is Axie-infinity emission calculated?

Axie-infinity emission refers to how new coins enter circulation, usually through mining or staking rewards. The emission rate depends on the project’s monetary policy and block reward schedule. Learn more in our guide: What is cryptocurrency emission?.

FAQ

We calculate our own inflation and emission data via our algorithms. You can learn more about how we derive our data in the learn page.

We encourage the usage of any data available on this website. You may use it for your personal or educational goals, but do not use it commercially unless you purchase the CryptoInflation API.

We strive to make the data as accurate as possible, but some blockchains have limitations on how precisely supply, inflation, and emission can be calculated. Moreover, the data on this website often has to be averaged and approximated, therefore the data can be a bit off sometimes.

Cryptocurrency emission and inflation aren’t inherently bad—they’re part of how many blockchains secure their networks and incentivize miners or validators. Moderate inflation can help distribute coins fairly and keep the network active, but excessive or poorly managed emission may dilute value and hurt long-term sustainability.
