1. IAW Background and Definition

In July 2021, the Ethereum Foundation first proposed the concept of "Infinite Garden"[1], which envisions Ethereum as an ever-evolving garden that is open to and built by the community.

In 2022, 0xPARC first proposed the concept of AW games (Autonomous Worlds) in their blog post "0xPARC: Autonomous Worlds (Part 1)"[2]. This type of game world runs entirely on the blockchain, and 0xPARC defines its characteristics and goals.

At the same time, the Web3 community also highlighted a new paradigm for GameFi called Fully OnChain Games, in which the game's state, data, and logic all occur completely on the chain.

In 2023, Zenfox Labs comprehensively summarized the design principles and differences of these three concepts in their research paper "The Intertwining of Blockchain and AI, Shaping the Future of Virtual Worlds".[3]

Of the different concepts, AW (Autonomous Worlds) is the most general. To some extent, it encompasses the fundamental concepts of full-chain games and infinite games, and can also be extended to a wider digital space. As a result, this paper proposes a new concept, "Infinity Autonomous Worlds (IAW)" to represent the combination of these three ideas, which is derived from but not limited to Autonomous Worlds. It primarily consists of: Infinity, Autonomy, and Composability.

Based on the progress in the field of IAW, this paper proposes the Building Pipeline and Technical Stack of IAW world.
