Enjin Coin serves as the primary utility token and backing asset for the Enjin ecosystem. Game developers and creators use ENJ to mint new in-game items, collectibles, and other digital assets. This ENJ is then locked into those assets, providing them with real-world value and liquidity. Users can then buy, sell, and trade these ENJ-backed items, or "melt" them down to retrieve the underlying ENJ. This creates a circular economy where ENJ is continuously removed from circulation, making it a deflationary asset over time.
