Axie Infinity becomes first NFT series to hit $4b in sales

Blockchain game Axie Infinity has become the first NFT series to cross US$4 billion in sales, Forkast reported, citing data from CryptoSlam.

Created by Vietnam-based Sky Mavis, Axie Infinity is a game where players can battle unique characters called “Axies”, which are also NFTs. Users can also breed Axies or trade them with other players.

The game rose to popularity last year, particularly in the Philippines, where people played the game for an additional source of income.

Other NFT series that have exceeded US$1 billion in sales are CryptoPunks, Bored Ape Yacht Club, and Art Blocks.
