Overall, Aether Games has a unique revenue model that capitalizes on both the gaming and blockchain industries. The company can generate revenue from in-game item sales, virtual currency sales, digital collectible sales, advertising and promotion, sponsorship deals, affiliate programs, and subscription services, all flowing back into the $AEG token.
$AEG Token Utilities
The AEG token serves as a bridge between traditional and web3 gaming, connecting the two distinct spaces and providing a way for gamers to access the benefits of both. This token provides a way for gamers to purchase games, items, and other resources and earn rewards for participating in gaming activities. It also allows them to easily convert their traditional gaming assets into web3 gaming assets, and vice versa, by disenchanting and thus retrieving a part of the token. By using the AEG token, gamers are able to take advantage of the best of both worlds and have a seamless experience across different games within the Aether Universe.
- The AEG token is the cornerstone of the Aether universe, providing a common medium of exchange between users, developers, and businesses. It is an ERC-20 token built on Polygon and is used as a digital asset to facilitate transactions within the Aether universe.
- The $AEG token is used as a crafting material, allowing users to create customized in-game items within Aether Games.
- The $AEG token is also used for staking in the Aether Vault, a decentralized application that allows users to store and manage their $AEG tokens. Stakers will receive rewards in the form of $AEG tokens or exclusive NFT rewards for holding their tokens in the Vault.
- The $AEG token can also be used to nest within heirlooms, a cross-game dynamic NFT that grows over time. By nesting $AEG tokens within heirlooms, users will level up their specific heirloom, giving various passive luxuries and smoother game progression.
- The $AEG token is used as a payment solution within the Aether universe and marketplace. This allows users to buy and sell goods and services with the $AEG token, providing a safe and secure way to transact within the marketplace.
Staking and Buybacks
The staking rewards program will reward users for staking their tokens, providing them with a variety of rewards and incentives. These rewards can include discounts on in-game items, virtual currency, digital collectibles, and exclusive access to new products and services.
The buyback program will allow Aether Games to purchase tokens from the open market and return them to the treasury pool. This will reduce the amount of tokens in circulation and create scarcity. The funds from the buyback program will also be used to reward users.

Participation and Allocation
This Launchpad offering is for a Strategic Round allocation of the $AEG token. Anyone who wants to join can apply, but application does not guarantee an allocation.
As always, anyone with a $SWAP Staking Score of at least 4,000 can receive a guaranteed allocation provided that individuals (and entities) pass KYC (jurisdictional restrictions apply). Token allocation will be split up among eligible participants proportionately based on their percentage of the total combined Staking Scores. Any unclaimed allocations after the initial funding round will be offered to those who might otherwise be ineligible.
Visit the TrustSwap Dashboard to check your staking score. You can add more SWAP and/or increase the duration of your stakes at any time to increase your Staking Score. To learn more about Staking Scores and the TrustSwap Long-Term Staking Pool (LTSP), read our comprehensive blog post.
