Abstract: The quantum co-ordinate algebra $A_q(mathfrakg)$ associated to a Kac-Moody Lie algebra $mathfrakg$ forms a Hopf algebra whose comodules are precisely the $U_q(mathfrakg)$ modules in the BGG category $mathcal{O}_{mathfrakg}$. In this paper we investigate whether an analogous result is true when $q=0$. We classify crystal bases as coalgebras over a comonadic functor on the category of pointed sets and encode the monoidal structure of crystals into a bicomonadic structure. In doing this we prove that there is no coalgebra in the category of pointed sets whose comodules are equivalent to crystal bases. We then construct a bialgebra over $mathbbZ$ whose based comodules are equivalent to crystals, which we conjecture is linked to Lusztig's quantum group at $v=infty$.
