Ronin Network, the blockchain behind Axie Infinity, announced a token buyback starting Sept. 29, 2025, using 895 ETH (~$4M) and 650,000 USDC to repurchase around 10 million RON (~1.3–2% of supply). RON surged 15% after the news but later dipped below $0.50. Analysts say the move could boost value short-term, but long-term growth depends on attracting new users to the ecosystem.

Big buyback news gave RON a quick boost, but without new users the hype may fade fast. Adoption is the real game-changer.

895 ETH + 650K USDC for buyback is solid commitment Short-term pump looks nice, but long-term success depends on Axie’s growth.
