(TOPIA)

$TOPIA was the original utility and governance token used on the custom HYCHAIN network. In late 2025, the project transitioned to $HYBUX as the core ecosystem token, now operating on the Base network. As part of this migration, $TOPIA is being phased out. Holders who moved their assets to self-custodied wallets by September 1, 2025, were eligible for a 2:1 airdrop, receiving two $HYBUX for every one $TOPIA held.

The migration to the Base network was driven by three primary factors: liquidity, onboarding, and lower fees. By moving to the Base ecosystem, HYTOPIA gains access to a larger pool of users and capital. The network simplifies the onboarding process for traditional gamers, allowing for easier fiat-to-crypto conversions in the background. Additionally, Base offers significantly lower gas fees compared to the Ethereum mainnet, making microtransactions for in-game items and cosmetics economically viable.

HYTOPIA is designed as a 'fun-first' ecosystem where $HYBUX serves as the central currency. It is used within the marketplace to purchase cosmetics, loot boxes, and unique game items. The token also facilitates a reward system where a majority of sales go to developers, while a portion is directed into a staking pool to reward the community. Furthermore, $HYBUX provides governance rights, allowing holders to vote on ecosystem improvements and the allocation of the Creator Fund via the HY Foundation.

Starting in early 2026, $HYBUX transitioned to an annual inflationary model of up to 10%. To protect long-term holders, a unique 'hedging' mechanic was introduced. While standard token staking provides a base yield, users who stake $HYBUX alongside HYTOPIA NFTs—such as Worlds, Avatars, or Gray Boys—receive a significant reward boost. This yield can reach up to 10%, effectively offsetting the inflation rate and allowing participants to maintain or increase their share of the total supply.

Yes. HYTOPIA is built as a free-to-play platform where Web3 elements are mostly abstracted to lower the barrier to entry. Players can join the metaverse, play user-generated games, and even earn items without ever directly interacting with a crypto wallet. The blockchain layer manages ownership and transactions in the background through hidden wallets tied to user accounts, ensuring that the 'Minecraft-like' experience remains accessible to the broader gaming community regardless of their familiarity with blockchain.

The project originally began as NFT Worlds using the Minecraft engine. However, after Minecraft restricted blockchain integrations, the team developed a standalone engine from scratch using Rust. HYTOPIA is now an independent, high-performance game that supports the monetization and ownership features that were previously disallowed. For those looking to acquire the ecosystem's token, $HYBUX is traded on decentralized exchanges and has been listed on major platforms like LBank. Users holding legacy $TOPIA should consult the official HYTOPIA Portal for bridging options.
