AXS token
The Axie Infinity Shards (AXS) token is the native cryptocurrency of the Axie Infinity game and the wider Axie Infinity ecosystem. It was created by the game's developers, Sky Mavis, and is used as a utility token for various functions within the game.
AXS is used to purchase Axies, which are the in-game creatures that players collect, breed, and battle. It can also be used to purchase land in the game's virtual world and to participate in governance decisions related to the game's development and future direction.
