Company mission

Kryptomon's mission is to bring fun and joy (while earning money!) into people's lives.

Our take

The play-to-earn (P2E) blockchain game market is growing fast, thanks to the simple and appealing proposition of earning money whilst having fun. One new player attracting a lot of buzz is the NFT monster rearing game Kryptomon. In this blockchain game, users rear, train, breed, and fight their own NFT monsters - it’s a fond combination of kryptokitties, Pokémon, and the tamagotchi.

In a sense, Kryptomon is to the blockchain what Axie Infinity is to Ethereum. This is great news for the budding game company - Axie Infinity has seen runaway success, with nearly 3 million daily users at its peak. With metaverse gaming on the rise more broadly, it seems there’s real public appetite, and Kryptomon has generated enough buzz to capitalize on it.

On the other hand, Kryptomon will need to have learnt from Axie Infinity’s mistakes. Axie’s in-game token SLP has gone through devastatingly fragile periods, with some suggesting that the game’s economy was unsustainably designed to flourish only in periods of growth. It speaks to the complexity of basing a game around earning power, which itself depends on the health of crypto - a notoriously volatile currency. Kryptomon will need to tread carefully - but will be an interesting company to watch.
