ETH.id has experienced a notable month of achievements. What began as a fun game developed during the ETHCC Hackathon in July has now transformed into a sensation on Crypto Twitter. Ethxy is a game that involves users acquiring an initial plot of land for 0.01 ETH, then expanding their territory by purchasing additional plots from fellow owners.

The game’s inherent network effects quickly spurred engagement, creating a buzz among players on Twitter. This surge in activity, combined with the Base Mainnet launch — the underlying network for this game — has propelled ethxy to new heights of popularity. The game’s prominence even led to the creation of a Dune dashboard by a renowned on-chain researchers, to track the game activities.
The team even had to rapidly upgrade their servers to accommodate the influx of traffic.
