NFT giant Yuga Labs just offloaded its CryptoPunks IP to a mysterious nonprofit—because nothing says ’decentralization’ like a Bermuda-registered foundation with a three-letter acronym.
The move comes as Yuga shifts focus to its ’Otherside’ metaverse gamble, leaving critics to wonder: Is this a genuine handover to the community, or just another crypto conglomerate cutting losses before the SEC comes knocking?
Bonus jab: The nonprofit’s funding structure is ’transparent,’ according to press materials—which in Web3 terms means ’trust us, we pinky-swore.’
