Hey Annie, have you heard about the recent shakeup at Yuga Labs?
You know, the company behind the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFT?๐ฎ
No, I haven't.
What happened?๐ฏ
Well, it seems they're going through some major changes.
Greg Solano, the co-founder of Yuga Labs, announced that they're laying off some employees and restructuring the company.๐ข
Oh no!
That's terrible.๐ Why are they doing that?
According to Solano, Yuga Labs had lost its way and needed to get back on track.
He believes a smaller, more agile team that's more focused on crypto can help them do that.๐โโ๏ธ
I see...
But what about their projects?
What will happen to them?๐ค
Good question!
They've sold the intellectual property rights of their NFT-powered games HV-MTL and Legends of the Mara to gaming firm Faraway.
This is part of their plan to regain their footing.๐ฎ
Hmm...so they're focusing more on their metaverse project, Otherside then?๐
Exactly!
By selling off those games, they can put more effort into developing Otherside.
Solano says there are more aspects of their plan that will be announced soon.๐บ๏ธ
That's a bold move.
But is this good news or bad news for the market?๐๐
Well, it's a bit of both.
On one hand, layoffs are never good news.
But on the other hand, this could be a positive step for Yuga Labs in the long run.
They're refocusing their efforts and aiming to become a stronger player in the crypto space.
So, let's keep our fingers crossed!๐ค
To sum up, this article is considered a ๐Bullish for investors!!
