Proponents recently noted a spike in the on-chain activity on the gaming platform. Despite a rise in activity, native token AXS price has failed to recover. AXS price has plunged 14% over the past two weeks.

AXS’s correlation with DeFi’s blue-chip projects Sandbox and Decentraland has turned negative, according to data from Nansen. Analysts consider that the negative correlation between AXS and top DeFi projects has fueled the bearish sentiment among traders.
DeFi blue-chip projects are rallying while AXS price fails to recover. Pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst @ByzGeneral recently tweeted:
$AXS interestingly seems to have inverse correlation with other metaverse blue chips (SAND, MANA) lately.

Players’ earnings on the play-to-earn gaming platform dropped below the minimum wage for players in the Philippines alongside a drop in AXS price on November 16.
@tendorian9, a pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst, believes that there is room for vertical growth in AXS price.
$AXS is just consolidating, it will pump again to new ATH, the general gaming market still has a lot of room to pump. $111-$117 is strong support zone that I don't see breaking. Price does not need to go there but if it does then it is a great opportunity to get in. pic.twitter.com/p5eJMvkS5y
