Claynosaurz

Claynosaurz is a Solana NFT collection of 10,000 3D-animated clay dinosaurs, launched in November 2022 by animation industry veterans Danial Cabral and Nicholas Cabana, who began developing the clay dinos in late 2021. The brand is deliberately family-friendly with a "Come as you Are" attitude — everyone is welcome to join the herd and take part in activities solo or together, and the team has grown substantially since launch while winning 13 animation awards along the way. Beyond the core collectible, Claynosaurz has built out real utility through its Claymaker crafting system and food-themed companion NFTs, with partnerships spanning hardware wallets like Keystone and other Solana ecosystem collaborations. Rarible chose Claynosaurz as the first collection for its Solana NFT marketplace launch. The roadmap extends the IP well past digital collectibles: short-form animation, a mobile game slated for 2025, television content, and an expansion to Sui with a new collectible series (Popkins) and an ecosystem-wide achievements system that recognizes engagement across gameplay, collecting, and creative contributions — badges mint on Sui while the original Solana-based NFTs stay integrated into the experience.
