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 Alcor Exchange. At the time of launch, 1 WAX was able to be traded for around 13,000 REAPER.
Why the WAX 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Seamless Onboarding (WAX Cloud Wallet)
WAX solves the “crypto-is-too-hard” problem with its Cloud Wallet.
- 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.
- 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.
- Proven Infrastructure for Gaming & NFTs
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.
- 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.
- Carbon Neutrality
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.
