Axie Infinity and its developers recently banned over 30,000 Axies overnight. Sky Mavis said some of these accounts will be unbanned soon, but only for users who did not abuse Axie Infinity ban rules.

Millions of players have taken over Axie Infinity, an NFT-based online game. Its popularity skyrocketed because of its "play-to-earn" system through blockchain. Unfortunately, many gamers are also tempted to abuse the system.

Axie Infinity Ban: 30,000 Players Hit, Accounts Suspended

According to ClutchPoints, Sky Mavis made its ban announcement on Discord. A Twitter notice was later posted on their social media page. Sky Mavis said many players exploited the game's energy system.

Sky Mavis also noticed that many abusers sold their Axies cheap during the banning phase. The accounts that purchased these Axies were unfortunately banned in the aftermath. However, Sky Mavis reassured the new owners would have their accounts restored after proper investigation. No timeline for the investigation was provided.

Sky Mavis proved themselves to have zero tolerance for abusers and cheaters in Axie Infinity. They even resorted to large-scale removal of player accounts. Ban waves might continue in the future, depending on the developer's discretion.

To avoid getting banned or suspended, Axie players must familiarize themselves with the new terms and rules of the game.
