In addition to profit-sharing with 'scholars', Merit Circle grows its treasury by holding various assets (i.e., game-related NFTs) and early-stage financial investments in Play-to-Earn games. Merit Circle's token ($MC) is used to govern the Merit Circle DAO and serve as an index for the Play-to-Earn industry.
