More About Apeiron?

Apeiron is a card-battling Roguelite x God Game hybrid. Players battle their way through a grid-based dungeon with their Apostles while wielding supernatural powers – like a god.

In the most recent PvP release, players can also challenge other gods to fight for rewards and to climb the competitive ranked ladder. It’s both a revival of the classic god simulation genre popular in the early 2000s and a roguelite incorporating modern gameplay design experiences. Players can grow their own planets, control giant Avatars in battle, collect cute dood NFTs, and more.

Apeiron has seen a steady increase in user growth since migrating to Ronin. Their upcoming token launch will serve two purposes: to fuel the growth and development of the Apeiron ecosystem while empowering the community to deepen their engagement through governance at an early valuation. Apeiron also recently released their PvP Open Beta and their new season 3 release with updated story content is just around the corner. 

 Apeiron Ecosystem Token

Introducing Apeiros ($APRS)

$APRS is the ecosystem token of Apeiron issued by Foonie Magus, the game’s developer. The token will allow holders to participate in the governance of Apeiron. The relationship between $APRS and Apeiron is similar to the one between $AXS and Axie Infinity. 

You may have heard of Apeiron’s $ANIMA token. $ANIMA is a gameplay token with an infinite supply, which is different from $APRS which is an ecosystem token with a fixed supply. Stay tuned for the $ANIMA token launch coming soon.

The $APRS token will be subject to vesting and unlock requirements. The Apeiron team designed these requirements to ensure $APRS supports a sustainable ecosystem. For example, investors’ token allocations will be held in escrow until they vest according to their own schedule. You can read more about $APRS unlock and vesting timelines in the official Apeiron Whitepaper. 

Note: As you read through the sale details below, remember that 100% of $APRS tokens will remain locked until $APRS is listed on either the Katana DEX or another exchange.

The Ronin Community Round will take place on March 15th, and the Ronin community will have the option to buy 4M $APRS.

Allocations are based on the amount of wRON staked into Ronin Launchpad and time staked from March 13th. 

Note: The wRON you stake on Ronin Launchpad has no relation to the RON you may have staked with a validator on Ronin. That means you’ll need to stake fresh wRON on Ronin Launchpad to be eligible for the $APRS, regardless of any RON you may have staked to a Ronin validator.

Key Dates

wRON Staking period

13-15 March 6:00 AM UTC

During this period, stake wRON on Impossible Finance’s Ronin Launchpad to see how many $APRS tokens you’ll be able to purchase. Impossible Finance determines token allocation using their StakeWeight Allocation Model, which takes into account how many wRON tokens you stake and for how long you stake them. Read more here, and follow the steps below to wrap your RON.

Step 1: Go to Mavis Market and select “Log In” to connect your Ronin wallet.

Step 2: Click “Swap RON/WRON" through the drop-down in the top right of your screen.

Step 3: Enter the amounts you’d like to swap and hit confirm!

APRS Purchase period

15 March 10:00 AM UTC to 17 March 4:00 AM UTC

During this period, you’ll be able to purchase $APRS according to your allocation based on the StakeWeight Allocation Model described above. If you don’t purchase $APRS during this time, you will forfeit your allocation.

APRS Claim period

26 March, with the confirmed time to be announced later. You can claim your APRS tokens on Aperion's vesting portal here. You can learn more about the way Impossible Finance structures token launches here. Refer to #9 for specific info about Standard and Unlimited sales.

The $APRS Standard Sale will be allocated a total of 2.4M tokens, with a 1000 wRON maximum stake. This allocation was designed to give smaller RON holders the opportunity to acquire more $APRS.

The Unlimited Sale will be allocated 1.6M tokens. There is no cap on the amount of wRON staked in this method, so large RON holders may stake large amounts to compete & maximize their allocations here.

Remember: 100% of $APRS tokens will remain locked until $APRS is listed on either the Katana DEX or another exchange.

Final Thoughts

Apeiron joined the Ronin movement in December and has already seen explosive growth since they migrated to Ronin. Their four NFT collections have already done over 75K RON in volume, and their monthly active users have grown from 50 to 24K in just a few months. The launch of their $APRS token is another step in a journey that is just beginning.
