The sci-fi movie Tron was released around 40 years ago. The film was released by Walt Disney and produced by Donald Kushner. The latter remembers the success of the film and is preparing to launch a non-fungible token (NFT) project dubbed Cryptosaurs.
Tron Producer Set to Release Cryptosaurs NFT Project
In a recent interview with Cointelegraph, Kushner discussed the metaverse and his thoughts on it while creating the Tron movie. He said the film was created on the idea that intellectual property and games would form a large part of the global creative community, and that centralized and decentralized entities would fight for control of intellectual property.
Cryptosaurs is a new project that will be created in partnership with Animoca Brands and Forj. The project includes collectible NFT characters, with an egg drop set to begin later this year. Each egg is a mystery box with a line of code. Holders will receive specified rewards from Cryptosaur which can be used in the metaverse.
Your capital is in danger.
The goal of the production team is for Cryptosaur holders to display their NFTs in play-to-earn games. These NFTs can also be used in VR displays, feature films, and fine art as avatars for the metaverse and other types of media.
Kushner as a crypto enthusiast
Kushner has also shown his commitment to taking the next step in the digital revolution. He said he invested in cryptocurrencies in 2018 on a trial basis with his colleague Mike Bonifer.
Bonifer is a publicist on Tron and author of the title “The Art of Tron”. Kushner said Bonifer believes crypto assets and NFTs could be used to fund movies and streaming content. Last year, Kushner, alongside John Scheele, launched Gumbotron, a Web3 studio focused on metaverse storytelling.
Kushner also added that the influential legacy of the Tron movie can be seen in several areas of gaming and entertainment. He also mentioned that some of the popular names in the gaming industry were involved in the Tron Atari game.
Hal Finney, one of the first Bitcoin recipients, worked on the TRX Atari game. Animoca Brands founder Yat Siu also worked at Atari when he was 13 years old. According to Kushner, the pioneers of the cyberpunk genre were also influenced by the success of the movie Tron.
