There are four founders behind the well-known NFT project Bored Ape Yacht Club. Recently, two of them were publicly identified in an article by #BuzzFeed, a well-known American online media. Although the article did not make any critical remarks, this move was criticized by netizens, saying it violates the anonymity of Web3.
The occurrence of this incident also caused discussions on the Internet; the emergence of the metaverse allows people to exist anonymously on the Internet much more easier. Should we continue to maintain such privacy, or should there be accountability and transparency after all? Tell us what you think!?
