Upcoming system adjustments

Fundamental changes are expected in future updates, including:

• Reduced benefits for accounts with low or no stakes.
• New functionalities for Ultra Blades and Legendary Pistols, making these items more valuable within the game ecosystem.
• Adjustments to how stakes and Palms affect earning rates and reward caps.
• Implementation of a delegation system, allowing players to manage resources on behalf of others.

How does the Play-to-Earn system work?

The P2E system in Nifty Island is designed to reward players for their in-game activity while maintaining control over ISLAND token inflation. This system uses a 10-day cycle model, where rewards are calculated considering the following main factors:

Bloom Count:

Blooms reflect the player's activities, including:

• Daily challenges: Completing daily missions in the game.
• Active gameplay: Participating in matches and activities.
• Island traffic: Earning Blooms for visits, time, and activities by other players on your island.
• Quests and special events: Additional rewards for missions and community activities.

Legendary Palms:

Legendary Palms increase the maximum cap of ISLAND tokens a player can earn per cycle. This increase depends on the type and number of Palms owned, with the maximum cap reached when owning an Ultra Palm.
