# Economy System

## **Main Tokens Involved in the Economic System**           

### **FIRE** 

Game tokens are used for various burning mechanics in the game, including avatar upgrade, cases opening and weapon casting.    

**MAX**

Game governance tokens, used to refer to the DAO governance of the entire ecosystem of Matr1x, with a total supply of 1 billion.        

### **Stable Coin (USDC)**

As a widely-used stable coin, USDC is used as the in-game transaction currency and in-game service payment.           

## **NFT Categories**            

### **Weapons**

The Weapon NFTs which are main combat props in the game can change the appearance of weapons but do not alter the attributes of weapons.

### **Avatars**

Avatars are the characters the players use for combat. High-quality avatars can earn FIRE and obtain cases in matches. Avatar NFTs belong to the "mining machine" type of NFT assets. There will also be a series of "cultivation" gameplay for the Avatars.\

## **Main Economic Activities**

### **Matchmaking**

In various matchmaking game modes, players with advanced avatars can obtain FIRE tokens and cases.

### **Avatar Upgrade**

By consuming FIRE tokens and other avatars, the attributes of the new avatars can be strengthened to improve in-game performance.

### **Avatar Reproduction**

A new avatar can be produced through 3D bioprinting by fusion gene blueprint extracted from the other two avatars. Players have to pay FIRE tokens to power 3D bioprinters.

### **Case Opening**

Players need to pay USDC and FIRE tokens to open cases and obtain in-game props.

### **Weapon Casting**

Only weapons that meet specific requirements can be put into the Weapon Casting Systems. Players can dismantle some low-quality weapons to acquire raw materials, which can be used in casting upper-quality weapons in a 3D weapon printer, by adding in more new components. Players have to pay FIRE tokens to power the 3D weapon printers.       &#x20;
