What is IBAT Token?

IBAT tokenomics
IBAT will have a total supply of 10 billion IBAT tokens – similar to other altcoins such as Polygon which also has a 10 billion max supply.
Players will be able to convert their IBAT tokens earned in-game into any other currency using the Battle Swap DEX, a decentralized exchange integrated into all Battle Infinity game arenas, or choose to hold and stake IBAT – stakers are also eligible for extra benefits within the game.
Why Invest in IBAT?
The blockchain gaming sector is a promising new investment asset class that shows no sign of slowing down – recently in April 2022 Sony invested $1 billion in Epic Games to ‘build the metaverse’ – i.e. to expand its metaverse gaming offerings. Epic is the leading US video games publisher behind the Fortnite series, and Japanese firm Sony created the PlayStation.
Epic Game also partnered with The Lego Group – the leading toy manufacturer – to build another metaverse virtual world aimed at the younger generation.
Major PC game producers such as Gala Games are developing new Web3 games such as ‘GRIT’ on Steam with cryptos and NFTs playing a role in the game.
Battle Infinity development team
In terms of crypto assets related to blockchain games, Axie Infinity kicked off the trend in late 2020, going on to make over 160,000% gains within the space of a year, up to November 2021 – a bull run from around ten cents just over $166 on Binance.
The native cryptocurrency of the DeFi Kingdoms game, JEWEL, also had an explosive bull cycle after launch. Many cryptos have now corrected in the 2022 bear market however presales tend to perform well despite bearish conditions as investor interest is high early in a project.
The team behind Battle Infinity are experienced developers, coders and crypto project managers. Similar to Polygon (MATIC) which is now a top 20 crypto asset, the core team are Indian, led by Suresh Joshi.
The project’s tagline is ‘welcome to the multiverse of metaverse’ – their aim to offer multiple Battle Arena games across several different gaming formats, could increase the potential user base and amount of interest from gamers.
Battle Infinity Price Prediction
During the presale, based on the 1 BNB = 166,666.66 IBAT conversion rate the IBAT token price will be approximately $0.0015.
See the IBAT price prediction video by crypto Youtuber Jacob Crypto Bury for some potential future valuations of IBAT.
Past performance of other projects isn’t necessarily an indicator of the future performance of IBAT, but many P2E gaming crypto coins performed well after launch – as well as Axie Infinity (AXS) and DeFi Kingdoms (JEWEL) some other examples include My Neighbor Alice (ALICE).
The option to stake crypto assets can also less the ‘pump and dump’ effect some tokens experience – adding long term value and an incentive to hold. IBAT staking will be possible for players.
Listings on crypto exchanges other than the in-game Battle Swap exchange could also lead to an increase in the price of IBAT – many P2E crypto tokens have successfully been listed on crypto exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, eToro, FTX, KuCoin and others if there is enough demand for them from traders, investors and gamers.
Battle Infinity NFTs
Similar to other play to earn crypto games, in-game assets, weapons and characters will be represented by non-fungible tokens (NFTs) that will be tradeable in the IBAT Battle Market, the project’s integrated NFT marketplace.
Via Battle Infinity website
The value of those tokenized assets depending on their rarity could then also increase in valuation over time, alongside IBAT token. Players will have complete ownership of their own assets in Battle Infinity.
New NFT projects also attract a lot of interest – recently major payment processor like Visa and Mastercard signalled an interest in NFTs, with Visa offering an NFT creator program to small businesses and Mastercard supporting the purchase of NFTs through its debit and credit cards.
Conclusion
Crypto presales are a preferred way for many to invest in cryptocurrency, as hype and investor interest in the early stages of a crypto project is at its highest and new crypto coins tend to perform well regardless of macroeconomic conditions.
The Battle Infinity presale went live July 12th and is backed by Digital 17 as well as several major crypto news publications. Read the Battle Infinity whitepaper here for full details of this new cryptocurrency and its tokenomics.
Battle Infinity fantasy sports game
The Battle Infinity presale will conclude October 10th or when the 16,500 BNB hard cap is hit. Rather than buying crypto assets that have already had a bull cycle it can often be profitable to invest early in a new project at presale when prices are low with more upside potential.
One unique aspect of Battle Infinity is across it range of Battle Arenas, one is fantasy sports based – the IBAT premier league. There are not many existing sports themed metaverse games on the market where its possible to build a team and compete in a play to earn sports format.
