How is blockchain, NFT, or cryptocurrency used in this product?

Aevitas integrates blockchain technology to establish a player-owned economy. In this world, assets such as land, resources, and digital goods exist as NFTs, ensuring true ownership, permanence, and the ability to trade freely. The in-game economy is powered by Benny, a token tied to real-world energy production, giving economic weight to the system beyond speculation.

What utility does this bring to the product?

The blockchain integration ensures that everything you own in Aevitas is truly yours. Unlike traditional games where assets are locked behind centralized servers, Aevitas allows players to buy, sell, and trade resources, land, and items freely. Additionally, mining in Aevitas contributes directly to Driftopia’s real-world energy initiatives, tying in-game actions to tangible value.

Does this product require me to connect an external wallet? What wallets does this product support?

Yes, to fully interact with the blockchain elements of Aevitas—such as trading NFTs, managing your assets, or earning Bennies—you will need to connect a wallet. Aevitas supports Solana-compatible wallets, including Phantom.

Can I use the product without interacting or engaging with blockchain, NFT, or cryptocurrency?

Yes, you can explore Aevitas, interact with the world, and engage with its core mechanics without needing a wallet. However, to fully participate in the player-owned economy, own land, or earn Benny, a connected wallet is required.

What chain does this product use? Is the chain proof-of-work or proof-of-stake?

Aevitas operates on Solana, a proof-of-stake blockchain known for its speed, low fees, and energy efficiency. This ensures that all transactions, from NFT ownership to Benny transfers, are fast and cost-effective.

Does this product have a marketplace? What can I do with the things that I earn (or purchase)?

Aevitas is building an in-game marketplace where players will be able to buy, sell, and trade NFTs, including land, mining pods, and Future Gadgets (interactive digital assets). This marketplace will allow players to use Benny tokens to enhance their mining capabilities, upgrade assets, and participate in Driftopia’s larger economic system. While the marketplace is not live yet, it is a key part of our roadmap as we develop Aevitas into a fully player-owned economy.

Are there in-app purchases within the gameplay? How are payments processed?

Yes, players can acquire additional assets, upgrades, and land within the game. Payments can be made using crypto (Benny, SOL) or traditional payment methods for select purchases. Transactions involving blockchain assets occur on-chain, ensuring transparency and security.
