MONI (Monsta Infinite) is an in-game currency in MMORPG card-based monster battle game, built on blockchain. As a play-to-earn universe Monsta Infinite allows gamers to earn real-life revenue while exploring the virtual world.

Despite being Initially designed as a lower entry cost fork of another distributed universe, Axie Infinite, Monsta infinite eventually came to uniquely address a number of issues currently associated with the world of NFT games.

During gameplay users build a team of creatures called MONSTAs and compete in card-based battles against other players or computer-controlled opponents. Moreover, Monsta Infinite supports an open-world feature, allowing gamers to develop a social network and participate in live events.

Apart from MONI the game features another native currency STT (Stamen Tellus). While MONI is considered a governance token, giving the holders an opportunity to vote on major decisions on the platform and to profit through MONI stacking, STT is generally used for purchasing in-game assets. STT is acquired through participating in battles, collecting dividends from land ownership and breeding and selling the game characters — MONSTAs. MONI is awarded to high-ranking players at the end of each season in player-versus-player (PvP) mode.

According to the roadmap posted on the Monsta Infinite official web page MONI first went on sale in September 2021. Game public launch is scheduled for the first quarter of 2022.

## What Makes Monsta Infinite Unique?

Monsta Infinite solves the problem of unfair competition during PvP battles through incorporation of the Elo rating system. The method invented by a physics professor Arpad Elo pairs the game battle opponents in accordance with their rank, recent match results, skill level and possessed attributes. By providing an opportunity for users to fight in their own “weight class” the platform aims to create a healthy competitive environment and make the gaming process enjoyable for players of different levels of experience.

The ecosystem supports the mechanism of augmentation for game character’s body parts, which implies an obtainment of a new skill card for the upgraded MONSTA. As per game design in order to enhance a character the player has to sacrifice one of the other MONSTAs in the team.This approach enables developers to control the population of the mythical species and maintain the liquidity of the asset.

Some users tend to automate resource farming to dishonestly obtain in-game values. Through use of bots they provoke the depreciation of the hard-earned winnings for the genuine players. Monsta Infinite advocates for fair resource distribution and integrates anti-bot mechanics into the game. The match-three puzzles — a mini-game offered to players between the battle rounds, will serve as a natural form of captcha-like algorithm protecting the community from malicious users.
