This week NFT Steez met with Cryptoys founder Will Weinraub to discuss the current role of play and toys in regard to their integration with nonfungible tokens (NFTs) and Web3 as a whole. 

Weinraub believes that the act of play is “not restricted to children” and believes that as adults, “we still crave the element of play throughout life.” According to Weinraub, through the development of technology, “play has evolved.” NFTs, especially in gaming, have highlighted this layer of ownership through play.

Weinraub and Cryptoys theorize that “adults are just looking for ways to feel like kids again.” Keeping the question of “how does play evolve” at the forefront, Weinraub says this is a core tenet of his experience with the evolution of play.
