What Illuvium powers
Illuvium (ILV) is a gaming / NFT-ecosystem token, currently ranked 356th by market capitalization among the assets we track. Rather than a financial primitive, Illuvium is the economic layer of a game or metaverse project. Player demand and trading activity inside that world are the fundamentals that matter.
Illuvium (ILV) is a decentralized role-playing game (RPG) built on the Ethereum blockchain, where players can capture and battle creatures called Illuvials in an open world. It combines elements of blockchain technology and gaming to create a play-to-earn model for players.
How game-economy tokens hold value
Illuvium has to balance rewarding players with not flooding the market. Sustainable in-game sinks for the token matter as much as sources, or emissions simply outrun demand.
ILV is not mined; it is issued as a token rather than secured by its own mining or staking layer.
Background & fundamentals
In sector terms it is most often filed under Gaming, Ethereum (ETH) Token (ERC-20), and NFT Token.
Where Illuvium sits in the market
At $2.79, Illuvium carries a market capitalization of $26.43M. Around $2.25M changes hands across exchanges in a typical 24-hour window. That is a turnover of about 8.51% of the float — elevated, often a sign of narrative-driven trading.
Illuvium carries no fixed maximum supply; issuance follows a programmatic schedule rather than a hard cap. ILV remains -100% beneath its all-time high of $1,377, the kind of gap that historically takes a full cycle or a fresh catalyst to close.
What the price history shows
The tape currently reads 24-hour -4.03%, 7-day -11.21%, 30-day -6.47%, 1-year -68.28%. ILV is currently trading near the bottom of its 365-day range (around the 3rd percentile of recent closes).
Volatility profile
Recent action puts Illuvium in the High-volatility band — it has been actively trading, with daily moves that would be unusual in traditional equities. Over the last 30 days the move totals -6.47%, a useful input for stop placement and position sizing.
How to evaluate a gaming token like Illuvium
The honest checklist for ILV is short:
- Player activity — real, retained users inside the game or platform behind ILV.
- Token sinks — whether the economy has durable demand for ILV beyond reward emissions.
- Studio execution — the team's ability to ship and sustain a product people actually want to use.
