DaoMaker is building a new NFT game based on Logan Paul’s Abandoned Project

Quick take:

• Christophe Zaknun has developed a new NFT game called Degen Zoo.
• The game is based on Logan Paul’s abandoned project Cryptozoo.
• Zaknun completed the game within 30 days, while Paul had indicated that CryptoZoo would take years to develop.

Christoph Zaknun unveiled the Degen Zoo NFT game. DaoMaker says he built the game singlehandedly in 30 days. Degen Zoo is based on Logan Paul’s abandoned game CryptoZoo game, which Paul had indicated would take years to build.

The American YouTuber Coffeezilla last year through several youtube videos called CryptoZoo Logan Paul’s biggest scam that prompted the YouTuber-turned-boxer to file a defamation lawsuit.

He later withdrew contact for the lawsuit, and chose to take responsibility for the fraud allegations.

In a recent Joe Rogan podcast, Coffeezilla said the CryptoZoo-Logan Paul saga was the biggest story he’s ever broken, revealing how influencer greed was used to raise millions of dollars from a fake NFT project.

Fast forward to 2023, DaoMaker founder Zaknun has found a way to bring the shelved project to life. According to the announcement on Friday, the game has already registered more than 115,000 wallets with pledges of over $700 million, setting a new blockchain game record.

Degen Zoo, as the name suggests, has a NFT collection of 120 endangered species. Players are encouraged to “kill” their NFT animal and push its collection to extinction, raising awareness of the negative effects of human greed on wildlife.

Degen Zoo’s development began as a joke amidst the back and forth between Zaknun and Paul. Zaknun pointed out that since Paul raised money for the CryptoZoo project, a year had passed with no progress in the development of the game. That’s when Paul made the “it would take years” statement, which Zaknun has since dispelled by building the Degen Zoo in 30 days.

Zaknun has promised to donate all profits from Degen Zoo to charity. Interest in the game has increased, fueled by the DAO Maker founder’s decision to issue daily updates.

Degen Zoo now has more than 250,000 followers on Twitter. According to the press release, the game’s testnet has already recorded more than 30,000 transactions with more than 3,000 players eager to join.

Zaknun is now proceeding with the Mainnet release of Degen Zoo after the accelerated development cycle.
