Cryptoys: The Digital Evolution of Toy Collecting
What happens when adults come together to make childhood dreams a reality? The Cryptoys project emerges - a company creating digital toys, reminding its creators of their own inner child.
Cryptoys is a digital platform that develops interactive, collectible, and game-oriented NFT toys for a new generation. They all become part of Cryptoverse - a continually expanding space for gameplay involving characters from the collections and earning rewards.

Cryptoys is a subsidiary project of OnChain Studios. The creators envision it offering collectors a unique digital experience in the long term. A diverse range of NFT toys and their line-ups will appear within the expanding Cryptoys ecosystem, complemented by new heroes, accessories, and games resulting from collaborations with top brands.
NFT on the Flow Blockchain
Cryptoys' founders chose Flow for the project because they consider it optimal for creating NFTs, games, and other consumer goods. Its eco-friendliness also matters: compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum, the protocol requires significantly less energy.
Among other notable advantages of Flow, the digital toy creators highlight:
- Scalability;
- Maintaining minimal possible energy consumption while processing an increasing number of transactions;
- Meta's announced support for Flow NFTs on Facebook and Instagram.
- Interactive Unboxing.

All Cryptoys characters come in interactive containers, providing owners with a thrill from the unboxing process and the surprise inside. When interacted with, the Crypto Cube comes to life and reveals the character hidden within.
Note: these containers are collectibles. They can be kept sealed or unboxed, and potentially sold on the secondary market in the future.

Cryptoys provides access to applications and gaming processes within the ecosystem. Each character possesses a unique set of traits that determine its uniqueness and capabilities. These include:
- Series;
- Level;
- Rarity;
- Edition;
- Mint;
- Breed;
- Skin;
- Stat-O-Meter levels – power levels.
In Cryptoverse, users will encounter not only the level of the characters themselves but also the level of the items that surround them. Clothing, accessories, tools, and other belongings are used to customize the hero and enhance gameplay.
The factors influencing the value of the characters include:
- Skin rarity. It can range from common, unusual, rare, epic, legendary, grail, to ultra grail;
- Power level. Cryptoys include characters of adventurer level (basic, lowest price and power), elite (mid-level), and hero (the most potent, valuable, and expensive character).
