About this model
Kryptomon is a BSC play-and-earn game in which players train, breed, and battle living NFT creatures. Its commercial system combines collectible ownership and gameplay with multiple monetisation sources, including marketplace fees, loot boxes, NFT drops, tournaments, merchandise, and token-linked rewards.
Version 1 launched in December 2021, and the early-2022 deck positioned the project for further fundraising. The game has a global audience with a strong APAC presence and planned EU and US expansion. Its revenue is therefore driven by live game events and digital-asset activity, not an ordinary recurring subscription base.
Model active players, paying-player conversion, NFT drops, loot-box sales, marketplace GMV, and take rate as separate drivers. Track token incentives and tournament payouts as economic outflows rather than simple marketing expense. Include game development, live operations, community, and acquisition costs. Player retention, NFT demand, token prices, release cadence, and regional expansion are the decisive scenarios.
A turnkey financial model
Live formulas, no hardcoded values
Outputs are driven by live formulas, so the workbook updates from its assumptions instead of relying on hardcoded results.
All assumptions in one tab
Inputs are clearly marked in the Assumptions tab and separated from calculations, making it clear what to change and what to leave intact.
Statements always balancing
For integrated-statement models, the balance sheet, cash flow, and supporting schedules tie through properly.
Distinct schedules for clarity
Debt, working capital, taxes, and cash flow can get messy quickly. We group calculations in clear schedules, not across disconnected tabs.
No hidden macros or external links
There are no unexplained external workbook links or macros to undermine auditability or portability.
Changes flow through the model
Update a key driver and see the impact carry through the forecast, financing, and return outputs. We never use hardcoded numbers in formulas.

How to build a detailed financial model for Kryptomon
A complete walkthrough of the business, drivers, and assumptions behind the downloadable Kryptomon model - distilled from its pitch deck and publicly available information.
Product & value proposition
- "Pokémon meets Tamagotchi meets CryptoKitties" - players are Trainers of unique NFT creatures with 38-parameter mutable DNA.
- Game built to be fun without P2E; P2E mechanics are additive, not the core hook.
- V1 (Tamagotchi phase): feed, heal, train, nurture Kryptomons; neglect triggers hibernation requiring $KMON spend to unfreeze.
- Roadmap to V2 (PvE/PvP battles), breeding, daily quests, mobile app, esports.
- Built with AAA studio Room8.
- Treasure Hunt: monthly real-world AR experience (Pokémon GO-style) to drive engagement and egg supply.
- Kryptomon Manga NFT comics sold alongside game lore.
- Fiat on-ramp via Simplex integration (credit card purchases of loot boxes).
Revenue model
Five revenue streams:
- Marketplace / in-game transaction fee: 3–5% take rate on P2P sales and breeding. Last 5-month GMV: $7M.
- Loot box sales: Three tiers - Bronze $1.39 / Silver $9.99 / Gold $19.99. Sold in-game for $KMON or fiat via Simplex.
- NFT drops: Direct sales via Binance NFT (e.g. mystery box drops at $95/box).
- Tournament entry fees: 5–10% rake (future feature).
- Merchandise & licensing: mentioned, no detail.
- $KMON token: native in-game currency; token trading provides indirect revenue.

Recommended financial model
Archetype + why: Gaming P2E / NFT marketplace multi-stream revenue model. This is not a SaaS or subscription business - revenue is transactional, driven by MAU, in-game spend per user, marketplace GMV, and periodic NFT drops. Closest archetype is a free-to-play mobile game P&L combined with a marketplace GMV model (similar to Roblox / Axie), with crypto token dynamics as a secondary layer. A 3-statement model is useful but secondary; the primary output is a revenue bridge and unit-economics waterfall.
Forecast horizon & granularity: Monthly, 3 years (2022–2024). Weekly granularity is meaningful for the first 6 months (deck already shows weekly data) then roll to monthly. Quarterly summary for investor-facing output.
Key drivers & assumptions:

- Take rate: 3–5%;
- NFT drop revenue: modelled as irregular events;
*Breeding & Unfreeze revenue*

- Breeding fees: part of in-game transaction fee (3–5% rake); ramp with PvP/breeding mechanic launch (Q1 2022 roadmap)

*Token / other*
- $KMON token trading: indirect; not modelled as direct P&L revenue (protocol treasury / tokenomics separate)
- Merchandise & licensing:
*Cost drivers*
- Game development & HR: 50% of raise;
- Marketing: 30% of raise
- Blockchain / infrastructure:
- Room8 studio contract:
Scenarios (Base / Bull / Bear):
- Base: MAU grows 15% MoM in H1 2022, 8% in H2; loot box ARPU flat; 2 NFT drops/quarter; marketplace GMV tracks MAU linearly.
- Bull: PvP launch Q3 2022 drives MAU surge (+50% step-up); ARPU rises 20% as Gold loot box mix increases; 4 Binance drops/quarter.
- Bear: Crypto winter suppresses NFT volumes (marketplace GMV -60%); MAU growth stalls at 2% MoM; loot box revenue falls 30% as $KMON price drops and P2E incentive shrinks.
Required sheets / outputs:

- MAU/DAU model - cohort-based or simple growth + retention; monthly
- Revenue bridge - by stream: Loot Boxes | Marketplace Fees | NFT Drops | Breeding/Unfreeze | Tournaments
- P&L (simplified) - Revenue → Gross Profit (blockchain/payment fees ~5%) → EBITDA; no COGS in traditional sense

- KPI dashboard - MAU, DAU, ARPU, GMV, marketplace take, DAU/MAU, 7d retention, revenue/week
- Scenario toggle - Base / Bull / Bear switch on assumptions sheet

Created by ex-finance professionals
Hey, I’m Alex and I created Finamodel.
Over my years in the finance industry I kept building the same models over and over again. Same structure, same assumptions, different logo. So I started building frameworks to turn them into clean, reusable templates.
Every model here is one I’d actually use for a client, and I personally vet each one before it goes up.
I’m not an expert in every industry, but I’ve built enough models to know what belongs in one. And when something is completely foreign to me, I reach out to my network for experts to work on our models with us.
Having a template library on hand cuts a first build from hours to minutes.
