Aethir EcoDrop: A Gamer’s Paradise

Aethir EcoDrop is back for the August edition of brand-new benefits and rewards for Aethir community members from our esteemed ecosystem partners. At Aethir, we are constantly striving to secure exclusive benefits for our community to show how much we appreciate the key roles of Aethir Checker Node holders and ATH stakers in the day-to-day operations of the Aethir DePIN stack. 

Aethir's decentralized cloud infrastructure has 91,000+ Checker Nodes responsible for ensuring optimal service quality for our enterprise AI and gaming clients. Checker Nodes ensure that all GPU Containers in Aethir's network always provide the best-in-class service. ATH stakers, on the other hand, have a crucial role in maintaining the stability of the ATH token, which is the centerpiece of the Aethir network's economic model. Both Checker Node owners and ATH stakers receive ATH token rewards for their services, but thanks to our ecosystem partners, the Aethir community also receives various additional benefits and rewards. 

Our ecosystem partners recognize the importance of the roles of Checker Node holders and ATH stakers in the only enterprise-grade GPU-as-a-service DePIN on the market - Aethir. 

That's why every month, a new batch of our partners announces benefits for the Aethir community. 

Who Is Rewarding ATH Stakers and Aethir Checker Node Holders?

In August, we have six Aethir ecosystem partners announcing exclusive benefits for the Aethir community: ArmourX, Battlerise, Chibi Clash, EARN’M, Pink Moon Studio, and Today.

ArmourX and Battlerise are two innovative Web3 games developed by the esteemed Triumph Games studio, showcasing the creativity of next-generation Web3 gaming. ArmourX is a P2E game set in a futuristic world where players become skilled warriors defending their planet against an alien threat using upgradeable armor, weapons, and other tokenized gaming assets. BattleRise: Kingdom of Champions is a collectible, role-playing game combining gripping turn-based battles, an engaging story mode, and endless dungeons inspired by classic, fantasy-themed games.

Chibi Clash is ranked the #1 game on PlaytoEarn.com as the first AI game on Base. Players take on the roles of warriors or warlords, navigating a dynamic world that evolves based on their actions and decisions. This free-to-play, fantasy gaming universe includes three interconnected games under one intellectual property brand, offering a unique blend of strategy, adventure, and AI-driven gameplay. In Chibi Kingdoms, players can complete various challenges and engage in strategic land gameplay on the largest cohesive map ever created by generative AI, while Clash/Survivor is an action-packed survival browser game integrated into the Kingdom's metagame. Additionally, Clash/Hero is a soon-to-launch mobile game that combines auto-battling with strategic item placement.

Ecosystem Partner Rewards for the Aethir Community

All of the partners in this edition of Aethir EcoDrop are allocating special rewards for the Aethir community. 

EARN’M will dedicate a portion of their upcoming tokens to Aethir Checker Node holders as exclusive airdrops, while Today will also allocate a special reward to our node holders. At the same time, ArmourX, Battlerise, Chibi Clash, and Pink Moon Studio will allocate a percentage of their tokens to our ATH - Gaming staking pool. ATH stakers who stake in the gaming pool will earn staking rewards in our partner's tokens in addition to ATH rewards once the partners listed in this edition of EcoDrop provide their token allocations. 

The exact time our partners will distribute their rewards for Checker Node holders, along with the ATH - Gaming staking pool allocations, depends entirely on when the partners will launch their respective tokens and rewards. For exact news regarding EcoDrop rewards, it's best to follow Aethir's social media and community channels closely for updates.
