Collect Rent Land NFT Very Low 1.8 CRYPTO (L10)
Rule King/Queen Low ~4.5 CRYPTO
Govern Noble Avatar Low ~1.4 CRYPTO (L&L)

Method 1: Collect Rent (Land)

The safest earning method.

How It Works

  1. Own a Land NFT on Mount CryCor
  2. Perform “Collect Rent” action daily
  3. Pay collection cost (10% of production)
  4. Receive CRYPTO minus 10% tax
  5. Get Level Bonus

Earnings by Land Level

Level Daily Production Net After Costs/Tax
Level 10 3.0 CRYPTO ~1.8 CRYPTO
Level 5 1.0 CRYPTO ~0.9 CRYPTO
Level 1 0.2 CRYPTO ~0.18 CRYPTO

Why it’s best: Zero theft risk, predictable rewards, daily rewards.

Method 2: Mining

High production, high risk.

How It Works

  1. Own a Miner Avatar
  2. Perform “Mine” action to extract Cryptonium Ore
  3. Perform “Refine” action to convert ore to CRYPTO
  4. Lose 20% to tax
  5. Lose 50% to theft

Earnings by Miner Type

Subclass Daily Production Net After All Losses
Foreman 3.0 CRYPTO 0.9 CRYPTO
Supervisor 2.4 CRYPTO 0.72 CRYPTO
Ventilation 1.8 CRYPTO 0.54 CRYPTO
Transport 1.2 CRYPTO 0.36 CRYPTO
Miner 0.6 CRYPTO 0.18 CRYPTO

The math: Foreman produces 3.0, minus 0.54 cost, minus 0.6 tax (20%), minus 1.5 theft (50%) = 0.9 net.

Method 3: Governing (Nobles)

Earn from other players’ taxes.

How It Works

  1. Own a Noble Avatar (Merchant, Banker, or Lord/Lady)
  2. Perform “Govern” action
  3. Receive share of Tax Pool based on your rank
  4. Share is divided among all governing Nobles

Tax Pool Mechanics

The Tax Pool fills from:

  • 10% of all rent collection
  • 20% of all mining
  • Various other in-game taxes

Your share depends on your Noble rank and how many others are governing simultaneously.

Method 4: Ruling (Royalty)

The highest earners—if you can afford them.

Kings and Queens (only 100 exist) earn 6.0 CRYPTO daily production with costs of 1.24 CRYPTO. They receive the largest Tax Pool shares and tribute from Nobles.

Method 5: Thieving (Army)

Steal from miners and the Thieve Pool.

How It Works

  1. Own an Army Avatar
  2. Perform “Thieve” action
  3. Receive share of Thieve Pool based on rank
  4. Pool is fed by stolen miner CRYPTO (the 50% theft)

Earnings by Army Type

Subclass Daily Production Pool Shares
Knight 1.0 CRYPTO 37.5
Blacksmith/King’s Guard 0.8 CRYPTO 25
Archer/Cavalry 0.6 CRYPTO 15
Foot Soldier/Spearman 0.4 CRYPTO 10

Method 6: Raiding (Army)

Attack castles for rewards.

Army Avatars can raid player-owned castles. Success depends on:

  • Your Army’s OGP sent to raid
  • Quality of equipped weapons and armor
  • Castle defenses

Better equipment = better rewards. Forge or buy gear from Blacksmiths.

Method 7: Crafting (Artisans)

Make and sell equipment.

Blacksmiths Fabricate armor and Forge weapons that Army avatars need for raiding. Sell on the Marketplace for CRYPTO.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best way to earn for beginners?
Land ownership. It’s predictable, safe (0% theft), and requires minimal active management. Start with affordable land, learn the game, then diversify.
Why would anyone mine with 50% theft?
Miners have the highest raw production. Some players accept the theft as a cost of doing business. Mining also fills the Tax Pool and Thieve Pool, making it essential to the economy.
Can I earn without owning NFTs?
