What happened
Blockverse is a Minecraft-based NFT game. Through OpenSea, investors can buy Blockverse characters and a cryptocurrency called $Diamond. Unfortunately, investors withdrew all real money invested in Blockverse, shutting down and deleting the project’s official website, Discord, and Twitter. After three days of silence, the Blockverse founders resurfaced on Twitter, apologizing and explaining their actions. More than three weeks later, the Blockverse team's promise to "get back on track" has not materialized. The Blockverse Twitter account has not been updated further, its website remains offline, and the Medium account hosting the Blockverse white paper has disappeared.
