Axie Infinity Shards (AXS) price predictions have suddenly jumped in wake of the cryptocurrency’s sudden price spike this week. AXS, which functions as the Axie Infinity gaming ecosystems currency was last trading higher by more than 30% in the last seven days, with most of those gains having come on Monday in wake of an update from the Axie Infinity creator team as to their plans to gradually decentralize the game.
