CryptoZoo was a failed blockchain game co-founded by the YouTuber Logan Paul. Launched in 2021, it promised a blend of cryptocurrency and non-fungible tokens within a game.
Background
CryptoZoo was marketed as an "autonomous ecosystem" where users could buy, sell, and trade exotic animals and hybrids using non-fungible tokens. The eggs were to be purchased by collectors via the accompanying in-game cryptocurrency, $ZOO, or via Ethereum. The eggs would then be hatched into random animals that would go on to breeding new cartoon eggs that would hatch in cartoon hybrids of themselves. The animals could be 'burnt' to recover $ZOO for the players.
Despite raising millions of dollars by selling NFTs and crypto coins, CryptoZoo failed to deliver on its promises. A project roadmap outlined various games incorporating the animal NFT images, but none of these features materialized, and no playable game has been published.
Logan Paul initially promoted CryptoZoo as a "really fun game that makes you money". He claimed to have spent around one million dollars on developing the project, emphasizing the massive team behind it. However, after the initial hype, Paul stopped discussing CryptoZoo and seemingly abandoned the project.
Public response
Upon the release of the game, the game was mocked for featuring stock images, and it was not well-received.
Investigation and legal cases
In December 2022, Stephen Findeisen, better known as Coffeezilla, a YouTuber who exposes cryptocurrency scams, ran a three-part docuseries on his YouTube channel about how the game was not functional despite the fact that millions of dollars of funding had been raised from investors. Criticism included marketing the game towards children, launching the game several months before the announcement and allowing the team to purchase large amounts of cryptocurrency which inflated its value. Paul later released a video disputing the allegations and threatened legal action against Findeisen for defamation and claiming that Findeisen broke "criminal and civil laws" by uploading a recording of a phone call with his manager, Jeff Levin, despite Texas being a one-party consent state. Paul did not elaborate on the legal and development issues of CryptoZoo. He also admitted to mistakes in hiring "conmen" and "felons" for the project. The response video was later deleted by Paul.
In January 2023 Paul apologized via Twitter, and promised to refund $1.3 million for NFT holders of CryptoZoo via a "rewards program". In February 2023, Paul was presented with a class-action lawsuit by some of those who had invested in the game. A refund program began a year later in January 2024, with Paul offering to partially refund tokens from fans who agreed to not sue him. He would also file a counter-claim against the other two defendants named in the class-action lawsuit, Eduardo Ibanez and Jake Greenbaum.
In June 2024, Paul decided to sue Findeisen for defamation, despite the earlier apologies. In a review of the initial legal documentation filed by Paul's legal team, YouTuber and legal commentator LegalEagle noted that the case was filed in the federal courts of Texas, where an anti-SLAPP motion is not available to Findeisen as a tool to prevent a costly legal battle. Findeisen would be represented by Mark Bankston and Bill Ogden of Farrar & Ball in this matter. In August 2024, Findeisen responded in a video asserting that the lawsuit is a strategic move to block investigations into Liquid Marketplace, a company co-owned by Paul, which has been accused by Canadian authorities of "multi-layered fraud".

Cryptozoo is a 2021 American adult animated drama film written and directed by Dash Shaw. It features an ensemble cast as Lake Bell, Michael Cera, Angeliki Papoulia, Zoe Kazan, Peter Stormare, Grace Zabriskie, Louisa Krause and Thomas Jay Ryan. The film had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 29, 2021 and was released by Magnolia Pictures in the United States on August 20, 2021.
Plot
In 1960s San Francisco, after having sex in the forest, young couple Matthew and Amber stumble across an enclosure. Climbing inside, they are shocked to discover a unicorn, which becomes provoked and stabs Matthew to death. The unicorn then trips and breaks its leg, leading Amber to bludgeon it to death with a rock. Trying to escape the next morning, Amber discovers the place is a zoo for cryptids named Cryptozoo.
One of the cryptozoologists that works there is Lauren Grey, who has dedicated her life to rescuing cryptids from the black market after a Baku named Mariko cleansed her of nightmares when she was a child in American camps in World War II, and thus has spent much of her time away from Cryptozoo. While on a mission to rescue an alkonost from peasants with the help of a lecherous faun named Gustav, the alkonost is suddenly taken away by Nicholas, a veteran and cruel cryptid trafficker who sells them to the United States military as bioweapons in the Vietnam War. Lauren is rescued by the zoo's owner and her mentor, Joan, who reveals that Mariko, who had previously been trafficked to America, has appeared after fleeing, and convinces her to team up with a gorgon, Phoebe, to find her, as the Johnson administration seeks to use the Baku to devour the aspirations of the counterculture movement. Phoebe is also engaged to a human, Jay, who knows of her identity.
The group tracks a lead to Orlando, where they find and take a headless man named Pliny, along with the woman who raised him, back to Cryptozoo. Lauren shows them and Phoebe around Cryptozoo, but while Pliny loves it, Phoebe is put off by it and wishes for cryptids to be accepted everywhere. After settling in, Pliny reveals that he saw Mariko in Maysville, Kentucky with a "black cat". Traveling there, Lauren and Phoebe discover Nicholas is also after the Baku. After unsuccessfully searching a gentleman's club called the Black Kitty Cat and talking with a cat lady, they come to a tarot shop with a black cat logo. While giving Lauren a reading, the shop owner realizes they are here for Mariko and reveals she is in a room in the back. They are about to take her, but Nicholas' men arrive and capture Lauren, Phoebe, and Mariko after being tipped off by Gustav.
Nicholas takes them to Cryptozoo, intending to use the evidence to attack and capture all the cryptids there. When they arrive, however, the cryptids have all been released from their enclosures, and they begin attacking Nicholas' men, causing the helicopter with Mariko inside to crash. In the commotion, Lauren escapes and manages to commandeer a griffin, which proceeds to knock the helicopter carrying Nicholas, Gustav, and Phoebe into the kraken pool. Lauren rescues Phoebe, but Nicholas recaptures Mariko. Gustav successfully pleads for their lives, and the survivors flee from a camoodi into a Karzełek cave.
There they discover Amber, accompanied by the last known Pegasus and having buried Matthew. Amber reveals that she was the one who released the cryptids, in an attempt to free them from their suffering. The cryptids proceeded to attack Amber, but the Pegasus flew her and Matthew's body to safety. Seeing Joan's office under attack, Lauren hops on the Pegasus to fly over to save her, with Gustav getting killed by Nicholas while giving her a window to escape. Lauren finds a weary Joan with her ape-like cryptid lover Vaughn, only for the camoodi to crush the office; Lauren escapes on the Pegasus. Finding Joan, Lauren mournfully concludes that they needed the cryptids more than the cryptids needed them, and Joan, unable to accept this, dies.
The Karzełek attack Nicholas and his men, allowing Amber and Phoebe to flee. Phoebe comes up with a plan to use Luz Mala to escort the cryptids safely out of the park. With Pliny's help, they find them just as Nicholas escapes and finds Mariko. He tries to capture her, but Mariko feeds off his dreams, killing him. Amber and Phoebe break out the Luz Mala using the unicorn's severed horn, and the Luz Mala escort the cryptids out of the park, saving them and all the humans present. On her way out, Mariko encounters Lauren, who chooses to let her go.
Lauren chooses to become a regular veterinarian, with one of her clients being Amber, who has bought a dog in Matthew's honor. After Joan's funeral, Lauren attends Phoebe and Jay's wedding. While fishing in a nearby river, she notices Mariko swimming among the fish and watches the sunset, which Pliny also watches.
