For those who don’t know Axie Infinity is a crypto game build as a second layer solution on top of Ethereum. In the last few months, it has grown a lot in popularity breaking all the records in terms of active daily users for a crypto app, and at one point it was generating more in fees then Ethereum or Bitcoin.
AXS, the governance token for the game has a market cap of two billion now and it is ranked around the 50th spot.
We can say that Axie Infinity started the NFT Gaming trend that we are seeing now across the crypto space, and it influence other projects, Splinterlands included.
The AxieBuzz Hive community was created at the start of July 2021 and it has been gaining momentum on Hive. Gaming and blogging goes well together and this is yet another example of that. It also shows that Hive communities have massive potential.
Here we will be looking at:
- Number of Subscribers
- New accounts subscribed to the community
- Community earnings
- Top earners
- Number of posts
- Top authors
The period that we will be looking at is July 3rd to July 31st. The community was created on July 3rd so that is the starting point.
Subscribers
Here is the chart for the daily subscribers for the community.
A total of 263 subscribers in July, with a record high of 25 subscribers per day. This might not look like a lot, but for a crypto blogging community, starting from zero it is great!
Out of the 263 subscribers, 116 (44%) are new accounts created in July, meaning that the community is attracting outside users as well, not just the existing user base on Hive.
Cumulative Subscribers
Here is the chart for the overall subscribers.
Almost a linear growth here, with some steep ups from time to time.
Community Earnings
How much has the community earned in terms of HIVE? Here is the chart.
We can notice that earnings were small at first, as the community gained traction, but then started to increase to around 200$ daily average in the last week.
In total in the first month the community has 3522 $ in earnings.
Top Earners
Here are the top earners for the month.
The official account @axiebuzz is on the top here, followed by @grenfunkel and @bittrio.
A note here that at the moment the Axie community is dependent on the HIVE reward pool only. If the community continues to grows and develop, they can implement their own tokenomics and start to create value for their own.
Number Of Posts
Here is the chart for the number of posts.
A total of 255 posts in the first month. In the second half of the month there is on average 15 post per day.
Top Authors
The top authors are:
@bittrio has been the number on contributor in terms of posts for the Axie community, followed by knowhow92 and the @axiebyzz account.
The Axie community on Hive is a great example for outside projects using the Hive blockchain to build and reward their community even more. As a crypto gaming project, integrating the community with Hive comes naturally. Will see where things will go, but as already mentioned the project has a billions in market cap, more than 200k players and a massive volume. If the HiveBuzz project gets some support from the official Axie funders it can become very interesting 😊.
All the best
