I have heard of this game before. I saw it on this one site that reviews crypto games. This has been around for a long time now. I don't like the idea of spending money on actions in a game. Unless I can somehow earn that money back? If I can make money that is even better. Is there a way to invest in this game? What methods of investing are there? Would it just be trading rare parts and fighting over the land?
There are many different ways people earn money through Axie Infinity, I'll try list them all but I may miss some,
1) Build strong teams and take part in both official tournaments and community tournaments, win against the competition and you'll earn cryptocurrencies.
2) Buy cheap Axies and try to breed stronger Axies from them, the Axie Infinity marketplace is one of the most active and you are very likely to find a buyer fast.
You can try breed rare looks (some Axies have a rare body types, like Sumo, Fuzzy and Yak among other), breed pure Axies (all parts being of the same class) or strong battlers (for example pure tanks, or high DPS, or healers, or backdoor DPS).
3) Buy expensive and limited Axies (called Mystics) which have unique looking parts, they are not stronger than other Axies but they have a distinct tag in their name and a different visual. For example this Mystic Axie (
https://axieinfinity.com/axie/1733) was sold for 110 ETH and this (
https://axieinfinity.com/axie/265) for 85.2 ETH.
4) Buy land... well, any land! You can buy from other players or from the official shop while there are some lands left.
- 4.A) You'll be able to place Axies in your lands and send them to PvE quests, earning tradable materials when successful. This feature is not yet live but you'll be able to trade those materials for crypto or craft with them.
- 4.B) If you don't want to use your land, you can rent it to other users who will pay you a fee in crypto. Even without renting your land, the land owners will be airdropped some ingame resources
(and maybe even small amounts of LOOM? There are talks about it, we'll see)5) There are some minigames created by community devs and streams and/or other community members give rewards to players.
