The core of Planet IX is to build territories. Players do so by connecting NFT land pieces and minting them into larger NFTs. The Territories are then staked for IXT rewards. The Territory staking pools are funded through in-game activity and sales from Planet IX.

Energy represents the final stage of the play-to-earn ecosystem. Epochs, which are 30 days long, begin fresh with 400,000 IXT in the staking pool, allowing anyone to earn as many rewards as possible. To participate, you must stake IXT and Energy at a 1:1 ratio. At the end of each Epoch, all Energy is burned, and the process starts new.

Our favorite game and staking asset are Landmark NFTs. These landmarks are situated on Planet IX and have an earning diameter. When a PIX (Land) is traded within the earning diameter of a landmark, the marketplace fee (5%) goes directly to the staking pool for that particular landmark. There are over 500 landmarks in the game.

MetaShares represent Planet IX's move toward a more decentralized ownership model in gaming. All in-game corporations have a fixed supply of metashares available for players to purchase. The funding for the MetaShare pools are generated through in-game activities, and purchasing MetaShares grants governance rights to the corporations within Planet IX.
