This evolution of Stacked is what many GameFi experts call the "invisible infrastructure". Here I summarize why this movement is so important for the ecosystem:

Sustainability through AI: The biggest problem with previous play-to-earn games was uncontrolled inflation. The "AI economist" of Stacked analyzes player behavior to ensure that tokens are not given away, but issued efficiently.

Ecosystem, not just a game: By opening this technology to other developers, the Pixels team aims for $PIXEL (or its economic model) to become the standard for rewards in multiple games, not just in its own virtual farm.

Focus on LTV (Life Time Value): They move away from "speculators" to focus on players who truly add value and retention in the long term.
