“Homeland ended up not being what we wanted… We’re going to rip off the Band-Aid and replace it with a new terrarium system.” — device
What is a Terrarium?
Terrarium will essentially be a new experience that will serve as the long-term foundation for Axie Core. This will be a persistent land-based gameplay layer where Axie will live, grow, and generate value, and more importantly, where future systems such as minigames, acquisition hazards, exploration, territories, accessories, land items, Legacy of Atia, etc. will all be connected to this base terrarium layer.” — shade

Q: Can I use bAXS to purchase Axies from the marketplace?
shade: Not at first. Initially, bAXS will be used for core functions (breeding/evolution/staking). However, we are working on a solution that will allow bAXS to be used as “currency” on the marketplace later this year, allowing players to convert their gameplay efforts directly into collectibles.
Q: Is there a gap between Homeland closing and Terrarium launching?
shade: We’re still getting the nitty gritty. There may be slight differences, but the rewards are guaranteed to convert. Terrarium launch is targeted for the first half of this year.
Q: What about scholars and guilds?
device: The ‘scholarship’ system needs to evolve. Scholars must “graduate” to collectors to get the best bAXS rates. We must evolve or die, and that means moving toward a system that rewards long-term contributions better than industrial agriculture.
