Ask Messari Copilot "What are the most popular games on the Ronin chain in 2024?"
In 2021, Ronin’s flagship game, Axie Infinity, propelled Web3 gaming into the global spotlight. But when the broader crypto market crashed in 2022, Axie’s highly inflationary token design was exposed, and users abandoned Axie Infinity, and to a large extent, Ronin itself.
But recently, Ronin has made something of a comeback.
3 New games - Pixels, Apeiron and Wild Forest have each shown strong growth in the past several months - reminiscent of the early days of Axie Infinity.
So the question is - what has Ronin learned from the Axie experience? And what outside factors may contribute to the success - or plateau - of Ronin’s rebirth?

In Q2 of 2024, Tether reported a Net Income larger than Visa, MasterCard and Goldman Sachs - and with only 125 employees. Stablecoins are one of the primary crypto use cases that have ascended the realm of mere speculation.
And as you’d expect, there are a number of challengers - and they’ve had a good year too.
So Andrew Dyer dove deep into the year stables have had - and can now give an update on the major categories of stablecoins, the protocols rising within them, their design choices, and the tradeoffs they face in attempting to breach Tether’s moat.

Like much of crypto, it’s been hard to paint a clear picture of Base this year. The Coinbase-developed layer 2 launched with high expectations, and by many metrics has certainly met them.
But if you listen to Crypto Twitter, you may hear a much different story. You’ll often hear things like “the apps are dead!”, and “all of its volume is driven by memecoins”.
Sunny Shi thinks Base is doing just fine - and can tell you how its leading exchange, Aerodrome, is driving some huge progress.
