Thousands of people still holding onto the dream of NFTs traveled to Hong Kong this past weekend to party at ApeFest, a gathering for owners of the pricey Bored Ape Yacht Club collection. But what was supposed to be a good time away from the haters turned tragic after more than a dozen attendees reported vision injuries that landed them in the emergency room.
The injuries, which the company behind Bored Apes has acknowledged, appear to have not been sustained from looking at NFT art, but were likely from ultraviolet stage lighting.
