Axie Infinity was also very quick to suffer the consequences when the price of the $AXS token has continuously decreased since November 2021, and the number of players also followed the decline.
The model of Axie Infinity made the mistake of focusing too much on the finance part of the gamefi that forgot the game part is the core to maintaining the existence of this form of entertainment. It is because of the number of players participating in Axie Infinity for the purpose of making money. The game's tokens are continuously printed to reward players while the deflation mechanism for tokens is extremely limited. These factors, collectively, have turned Axie Infinity into a pay-as-you-go Ponzi scheme. At a time when the financial model of the game was no longer attractive enough to expand the user base, Axie collapsed with its already extremely weak foundation.
