Sky Mavis off to “a good start” says DOF

In a report by Manila Bulletin, Finance Secretary Carlos G. Dominguez III said that Sky Mavis has gotten off to a “good start” when it made the above-mentioned announcement to encourage its players to abide by government laws in their respective countries.

The announcement came after Axie Infinity became a hotter subject recently when the DOF and BIR clarified that play-to-earn games earnings from platforms like Axie Infinity are subject to income tax.
