From previously working long, tiring shifts to earning over $1 million in less than 2 years, Kookoo Crypto is an inspiration to more than 15,000 individuals in a gaming guild he’s a community manager for. He now brings this knowledge to NFT gaming enthusiasts in an exclusive master class in Nas Academy Philippines where he shares his experience, strategies, and pro-tips on how he earns money through playing Axie Infinity.
“My story sounds too good to be true, but I want to share to fellow Pinoys how I was able to afford my dream house and how I retired my parents while at home in my sando through playing a video game that I love,” said Kookoo Crypto.
Kookoo Crypto was a college-dropout, turned waiter, turned Uber Driver before becoming a multimillionaire. His fortune changed after reading an article on how Filipinos were earning during the pandemic from Axie Infinity. This encouraged him to download the game, learn how breed and increase the rank of his pets or “Axies”, and later sell them to other players for around $50 to $100 each.
In a partnership with Nas Academy Philippines, Kookoo Crypto is now able to teach anyone from curious investors, newbies and NFT game enthusiasts who want to win more how they can earn serious money by understanding the strategies in the game.
Kookoo Crypto’s “Become an Axie Infinity Trainer” master class in Nas Academy Philippines includes video-on-demand lessons and Zoom sessions where he discusses the crypto ecosystem, the basics of Axie Infinity, how play-to-earn works, complex gameplay strategy, and other pro tips and tricks. He will also conduct a regular “ask me anything” session to ensure his students are up-to-date with the latest releases of the game.
According to Jacqueline Maye Lim, Nas Academy’s Country Head for the Philippines, Kookoo Crypto’s master class is just one of several crypto learning courses that put the platform at the forefront of helping Filipinos understand the crypto ecosystem to prepare them for the shift businesses investing more into the space.
