Netmarble Corp. announced on Thursday that its blockchain subsidiary Marblex has launched the Union Tokenomics, token economic system for the MBX ecosystem. The MBX ecosystem, built on the Klaytn mainnet, aims to amplify the gaming experience by integrating blockchain technology while fostering an environment of user engagement and equitable rewards.

The newly introduced Union Tokenomics establishes a unified economic system within the MBX ecosystem, anchored by the bridge token MBXL. It incorporates various in-game tokens such as ITU, NKT, NKA and FCT.

Users can now exchange tokens earned across multiple games for MBXL within the MBX ecosystem. Union Tokenomics aims to broaden the utility of these bridge tokens, enabling them to be used in different games.

For instance, ITU token, previously exclusive to A3: Still Alive (Global), can now be employed in the same capacity as the in-game currency Meta Cash in the recently launched "Modoo Marble 2: Metaworld." This development enhances the versatility of each game token, allowing for their use across various games.

"The establishment of Union Tokenomics would enhance token utility, stabilize the value of each game token, and lay the groundwork for a sustainable ecosystem," an official of Marblex said. "The firm plans to apply Union Tokenomics to the recently introduced MBX 3.0 and continue developing diverse business models."
