Crypto Farming Game Pixels Revives Ronin Blockchain

The popular play-to-earn game Axie Infinity, which runs on the Ronin blockchain, is having a comeback in 2024. The reason for this rise is a new game called Pixels, which is a low-fi farming game where users may nurture virtual land and earn money.

Ronin’s user base has shown tremendous growth of over 700% since the year 2024 began thus outpacing growth rate in other blockchain industries. DappRadar also reported that pixel popularity has drawn 1.25 million unique players in only the last month, is what is driving this spike. Pixel allows users to earn real world currency through gameplay mostly in the Philippines similar to what happens on Axies Infinity gamers.

This movement challenges the idea that effective cryptocurrency gaming requires graphics of the highest calibre.  But unlike Axie Infinity, Pixels wasn’t created with Ronin in mind. Since moving from Polygon in October of last year, its daily active user base has increased dramatically, from 3,000 to 750,000.

While Pixels doesn’t require upfront crypto investment like Axie Infinity, Ronin boasts a large user base (12.7 million wallet downloads) primed to potentially engage with the game’s NFT features.
