Digital Assets Former Blade of God X exec claims game ‘abandoned’ Web3

A former executive of the Web3 game Blade of God X (BOGX) accused the project of abandoning its blockchain-based roadmap after raising funds through the crypto space.
On April 1, BOGX’s former chief marketing officer Amber Bella claimed in an X post that despite being funded by Web3 sources, the game “completely abandoned” its Web3 goals and the team working on its Web3 features.

“Web3 was completely abandoned, and my Web3 team’s salaries went from delayed payments to no payments at all,” Bella claimed.

The former game executive also said that instead of compensating users and repaying funds to non-fungible token (NFT) buyers, the game’s founder, Tnise Liu Yang, decided to block her from all personal communication channels.

Former BOGX exec says founder avoided refund conversation

In the X thread, Bella claimed she attempted to convince Yang to properly liquidate the game’s Web3 assets, but the BOGX founder blocked all communications. Bella wrote:

“When I requested that Tnise refund all sold NFTs and properly address the Web3 community, including returning the in-game purchases made by Web3 users during the third test, I discovered I had been blocked from all personal communication channels without any advance notice.”

Bella said this happened when she proposed “settling the Web3 side” responsibly if they were to shift the game into a fully Web2 project.

In addition, the former exec accused the game’s Web2 team of claiming prizes allocated for players. Bella said that while the Web3 team was working to improve player benefits, they discovered that the Web2 team was using their own accounts to complete and claim cash prizes that should’ve gone to players.

“They concealed this from the Web3 team entirely and initially denied it when confronted. Only when we presented evidence showing that the accounts were linked to their own wallets did they finally remove these accounts,” Bella wrote.

Cointelegraph reached out to Blade of God X for comments but did not receive a response by publication.

BOGX is a game action role-playing game (RPG) developed by Void Labs. On May 11, 2024, Web3 investment fund OKX Ventures announced its investment in the game. In a now-deleted press release, OKX Ventures wrote that the game “merges advanced AI agents with blockchain technology.”
