The Axie Universe has a self-contained economy. Players can buy and sell digital goods. For example, players can buy and sell Axie (the Pokemon-esque creatures). This economy is built around two cryptocurrencies: AXS and SLP.

A social currency is a tokenized asset that represents value within a specific community, often used to incentivize engagement, reward participation, and strengthen brand or community loyalty. It operates similarly to traditional currency but derives its worth from social interactions, reputation, and influence.
