CryptoZoo, launched and endorsed by YouTuber Logan Paul in 2021, was designed as a play-to-earn game centered around NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens). Players could acquire a cryptocurrency specific to the game, which they could use to purchase eggs. These eggs, once obtained, could be hatched to reveal images of various animals. By combining different animals, players could create hybrid creatures.

The animals could subsequently be sold for additional in-game currency. This cycle could be repeated, offering players an opportunity to generate earnings within the game and potentially convert those earnings into real-world currency.

When Logan Paul and his team unveiled the images of the creatures featured in Cryptozoo, the project faced significant backlash online. Many criticized the game for using what seemed to be generic stock images of regular animals.

YouTuber Stephen Findeisen, known as Coffeezilla, released a series of videos in January accusing 'The Maverick' of being dishonest about certain aspects of his NFT-based game. Coffeezilla delved into the game with subsequent videos, alleging that Paul had employed deceptive tactics in connection with the NFT venture.

In response to these claims, Logan Paul uploaded a video where he addressed the accusations of a scam. In the video, he admitted to making an error in hiring certain individuals for the project. However, he refuted the allegations of engaging in deceptive practices.

While Paul continues his WWE career and works on his beverage company, PRIME, investors in CryptoZoo are awaiting the promised refunds.
