Amid NFT slump, Dapper Labs conducts third round of layoffs in 9 months

Blockchain gaming startup Spielworks and Web3 platform Mycelium Network have collaborated to create an NFT project that allows for automatic refunds on NFT purchases. Through smart contracts, anyone who wants a refund can simply click a button and exchange the pool of funds for NFTs.
Users who obtain NFTs will also be allowed to use them in blockchain games, providing players with material drops as well as mining capabilities.
