My Neighbor Alice has rolled out another big update with the start of Beta Season 2. A key part of this update is the $BJORN token. It is now the secondary currency used for in-game tasks like crafting and trading. The new system is designed to give players more ways to play and earn, making the game more engaging.
What is $BJORN?
$BJORN is the new in-game token for My Neighbor Alice. Unlike its counterpart, the $ALICE token (which is more focused on blockchain and governance functions), $BJORN is all about powering the internal economy of the game. It’s the go-to currency for everything from crafting tools to upgrading buildings and unlocking special features.
But here’s where things get interesting—$BJORN isn’t just handed out. Players must earn it through gameplay by interacting with a new NPC called Oli. You’ll be seeing a lot of him on your land, so let’s dive into what Oli and $BJORN are all about.
Fixed Supply, Infinite Fun
First things first: $BJORN has a fixed supply. There will only be 100,000 plots of land in My Neighbor Alice, and each plot contains 10 million $BJORN tokens.
But these tokens aren’t just sitting there waiting to be spent. To access your land’s $BJORN, you’ll need Oli’s help. Think of him as your in-game treasure guide, showing you how to extract the tokens from your land.
How to Earn $BJORN
Earning $BJORN is as simple as following Oli’s lead. He’ll appear on every land plot, and players can interact with him to claim Free Daily $BJORN every 21 hours—no strings attached. For those who want to earn more, Oli also offers daily quests that can be completed for extra rewards.
These quests are randomly generated, ensuring that no two days are the same in My Neighbor Alice. Need a little variety in your daily tasks? No problem! You can skip or abandon quests you don’t like and get new ones after a cooldown period.
Building and Upgrading with $BJORN
Ready to take your land to the next level? Apart from offering free $BJORN, Oli helps players unlock a whole new dimension by building placeables. These are specialized structures like the Farmer’s Cottage, Fishing Hut, and Worker’s Shed. Each building corresponds to a set of daily quests that grant players even more $BJORN.
Here’s the cool part: these buildings are permanent! Whether you have a free trial land or you’re a landowner, once you build a placeable, it stays with you forever. And, of course, each building can be upgraded. Higher-tier buildings offer better designs, more daily quests, and increased durability, so they don’t need to be repaired as often.
Upgrading your buildings is a smart way to maximize your $BJORN earnings. Just remember—upgrading and repairing buildings does cost some $ALICE, so keep an eye on your resources.
Why $BJORN Matters
While $ALICE is still the game’s governance and high-stakes currency, $BJORN plays a crucial role in keeping My Neighbor Alice fun and accessible. Even if you don’t own $ALICE, you can still thrive in the game by using $BJORN to craft tools, upgrade your land, and complete quests. This makes $BJORN the key to a balanced and sustained economy.
Whether you’re a casual player or a landowner, $BJORN ensures that you can keep growing, crafting, and building your dream world without the need for constant blockchain transactions.
What’s Next for $BJORN?
The $BJORN economy is now in a testing phase as part of Beta Season 2. The team behind My Neighbor Alice has promised ongoing updates and improvements, so expect more ways to earn and spend $BJORN tokens.
Keep in mind that Oli and $BJORN are here to stay, and they’ll be key players in the game’s economy. So, if you haven’t started collecting your daily tokens and upgrading your buildings, now is the perfect time to dive in.
