| **####The Reaper Token####** | **####The Reaper Token####** |
| | \\ |
| The Reaper (REAPER) token is the first crypto token for the Reaper's Crypt ecosystem that was launched on the WAX blockchain November 30, 2025. The first exchange to support trading and swapping the token was [[https://alcor.exchange/trade/reaper-reapers.gm_wax-eosio.token|Alcor Exchange]]. At the time of launch, 1 WAX was able to be traded for around 13,000 REAPER. | **REAPER** is the native token of the Reaper's Crypt ecosystem, built on the **Solana (SOL)** blockchain as a Solana SPL token. It operates alongside Bitcoin (Satoshi) to form the platform's dual-currency economy. |

| **####Why the WAX blockchain?####** | \\ |
| | **####Why the SOL blockchain?####** |
| Launching a new crypto token on the WAX (Worldwide Asset eXchange) blockchain is a strategic choice often driven by its dominance in the gaming, NFT, and digital collectible sectors. While major chains like Ethereum or Solana focus on broad finance, WAX is "purpose-built" for high-volume, small-value transactions. | \\ |
| | The REAPER token runs on Solana — a high-speed, low-cost blockchain chosen for its near-instant transaction finality and minimal fees. This makes it well suited for in-game economies where small, frequent transfers need to be practical. |
| * **##Zero Gas Fees for Users##** | \\ |
| | \\ |
| One of the biggest hurdles for crypto adoption is "Gas Fees." On WAX, the end-user typically pays **zero fees** to send a token or trade an NFT. | **####How to Get REAPER####** |
| | \\ |
| * **The Resource Model**: Instead of paying per transaction, WAX uses a system where users or developers "stake" (lock up) WAXP tokens to reserve CPU and Network power. | REAPER is distributed through community events, giveaways, and platform activities hosted within the Reaper's Crypt Discord. It can also be traded peer-to-peer on the **[[https://www.reaperscrypt.com/dex.php|Reaper DEX]]**. |
| | \\ |
| * **Why it matters**: This makes WAX ideal for projects requiring thousands of micro-transactions, such as play-to-earn games or loyalty reward programs, where a $0.50 fee would make the project unusable. | \\ |
| | **####How to Use REAPER####** |
| | * **Withdraw to your wallet** — Use ''/reaper'' in Discord to send REAPER to any compatible Solana wallet |
| * **##Seamless Onboarding (WAX Cloud Wallet)##** | * **Trade on the Reaper DEX** — Swap REAPER peer-to-peer with other community members |
| | * **Community participation** — REAPER is used across platform events and prize pools |
| WAX solves the "crypto-is-too-hard" problem with its **Cloud Wallet**. | **####Compatible Wallets####** |
| | \\ |
| * **Social Login**: Users can create a blockchain account using their existing Google, Facebook, or Discord accounts. They don’t have to manage complex private keys or seed phrases immediately. | To hold or receive REAPER you need a Solana wallet. Recommended options: |
| * **Mass Market Appeal**: This allows to market a token to "regular people" rather than just crypto-natives, which is vital for mainstream gaming and brand-led NFT collections. | \\ |
| | * **[[https://phantom.app|Phantom]]** — Most popular Solana wallet, browser extension and mobile |
| * **##Proven Infrastructure for Gaming & NFTs##** | * **[[https://solflare.com|Solflare]]** — Browser extension and mobile |
| | * **[[https://backpack.app|Backpack]]** — Browser extension and mobile, popular in the Solana gaming community |
| WAX is consistently among the most active blockchains in the world by transaction volume, largely due to its "fat" ecosystem of secondary markets and tools. | See the [[crypto:wallets|Wallets]] page for more detail. |
| | \\ |
| * **Interoperability**: WAX features built-in bridges to Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, and TON, allowing your token or NFTs to move across the "multi-chain" world easily. | \\ |
| * **Marketplace Integration**: New tokens and NFTs are instantly compatible with established marketplaces like **AtomicHub** and **NeftyBlocks**, providing immediate liquidity and a place for your community to trade. | **####Viewing Your Balance####** |
| | \\ |
| * **##Carbon Neutrality##** | Your REAPER balance is visible in the Reaper's Crypt Discord Bot via the ''/profile'' command. |
| | |
| In 2026, the environmental impact of blockchain is a major concern for global brands (like Funko, Mattel, and Hasbro, who all use WAX). | |
| | |
| * WAX is 100% **Carbon Neutral**. It uses a **Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS)** mechanism, which is significantly more energy-efficient than Bitcoin's mining process. This makes it a "safe" choice for companies worried about ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) standards. | |
