🚀 Mino Games Shifts Dimensionals To Web2 Mode

According to Odaily, Web3 game developer Mino Games has announced the transition of its card game 'Dimensionals' to a Web2 model. Mino Games CEO Sash MacKinnon revealed that 'Dimensionals' entered the Web3 space in March 2023, launching its Genesis series through a free minting process. However, the project faced significant challenges, including a large number of whitelist giveaways being claimed by bots and multiple DDoS attacks. Additionally, the reform of NFT royalties, which eliminated a key revenue source, led to a sudden collapse in income. As the value of NFTs plummeted, some community members began scamming others within the community. Confronted with these issues, Mino Games ultimately decided that continuing in the Web3 space was not viable.
