2. How does the NFT burn mechanism work in Imperium Empires? In Imperium Empires, NFTs (e.g. spaceships) can be damaged or destroyed during battles in PvP zones that players voluntarily enter; 

3. How does Imperium Empires gamify DeFi and connect gamers to DeFi? Imperium Empires seamlessly connects 3 billion gamers worldwide to DeFi by integrating top DeFi protocols on the Avalanche ecosystem into the gameplay of the Imperium metaverse; and 

4. What is the concept of Team-to-Earn in Imperium Empires? Imperium Empires introduces the pioneering concept of Team-to-Earn where players join and compete in guilds. Guilds can easily find, manage, and train their guild members or scholars through Imperium Empires' official guild and scholars management system designed for guilds.

$IME is the governance token of Imperium Empires. Players of the Imperium metaverse earn $IME through seasonal tournament rewards and looting destroyed spaceships. The utility of $IME is mainly for purchasing NFTs and guild-related staking.

Imperium Empires is the first AAA-quality MMORTS space metaverse on Avalanche, built by an accomplished team from Animoca Brands, Tencent and Uber.

Funded by the Avalanche Foundation and top-tier VCs such as GBV Capital and Three Arrows Capital, Imperium Empires starts a new era of GameFi 2.0 through (i) deflationary tokenomics via NFT burns in PvP battles; (ii) guild centered gameplay which allows players team-to-earn with their friends; and (iii) gamifying DeFi and making DeFi accessible to 3 billion gamers over the world.

Imperium Empires is a 3rd person RTS MMO space metaverse set to disrupt the existing Play-To-Earn (P2E) blockchain gaming model by addressing 4 major problems commonly seen in most blockchain games:

1. Low-quality graphics and limited gameplay: simply put, theres no fun playing these games;

2. Hyperinflationary and unsustainable tokenomics: no NFT burn mechanisms such that the NFT supply keeps inflating, and play-to-earn rewards drain fast and collapse as the number of players grows;

3. Lack of deep DeFi integration: most GameFi projects fail to live up to their promises of the Fi part; and

4. Lack of guild-based gameplay that bonds guild members together and makes gaming a social experience.

Imperium Empires solutions to these problems include:

1. Building high-quality graphics and gameplay into the Imperium metaverse with the help of an accomplished team of in-house game developers, game designers and blockchain developers;

2. Embedding unique NFT burn mechanisms where NFTs (e.g. spaceships) can be damaged or destroyed during battles in PvP zones that players voluntarily enter;

3. Gamifying DeFi and acting as a bridge that connects 3 billion gamers worldwide to DeFi protocols. Through partnerships with Trader Joe, BenQi, and Yield Yak, Imperium Empires aims to become the gamified hub of top DeFi protocols on Avalanche, allowing players to enjoy the benefits of DeFi without the steep learning curve of concepts like TVL and liquidity mining; and

4. Pioneering Team-to-Earn where players join and compete in guilds — guilds can also easily source, manage and train their guild members or scholars through Imperium Empires official guild and scholar management system designed for guilds.
