$AXS (Axie Infinity) – quick update
Axie Infinity is experiencing a short-term “revival” in $AXS, driven mainly by the tokenomics restructuring narrative, but accompanied by very strong volatility.
* As of 20/01, $AXS is trading around $2.02, up about +20% in 24h, +~94% over 7 days, and +~142% over 1 month, yet it remains sharply lower versus one year ago.
* Large short-term swings: after strong up sessions, the price at times pulled back ~7%; derivatives data and exchange inflows indicate profit-taking risk remains high.
Recent news/catalysts of note
* Axie announced bAXS (Bonded AXS): an account-bound form of AXS, backed 1:1 by AXS, intended to reward real players and reduce bots/farming; rollout planned for Q1/2026, with an “exit” mechanism that carries a dynamic fee flowing to the Treasury.
* On the product side, the team continues to tease progress on Atia’s Legacy; earlier updates indicated the next playtest is targeted for late Q1 or early Q2/2026 (and will include content to validate the “endgame”).
