Logan Paul Pays Back To The Victims Of CryptoZoo Disaster
Logan Paul has come up with good news for the CryptoZoo investors, but looking at his long post on social media it seems not everyone would be subjected to a refund. The reputed WWE star took to X and posted a message acknowledging the CryptoZoo disaster. However, he has kept a condition for the buy-back policy which implies only for the people who had intended to play. Logan Paul clearly stated that no compensation would be provided to the ones who gambled on the Crypto market and lost it.
The post mentioned-
“Today, I am incredibly happy to announce that I am delivering on my promise to buy back Base Egg and Base Animal CryptoZoo NFTs for their original purchase price. This buy-back program is being carried out at EGGNFTBUYBACK.COM”
The post further read as
“Claims can be submitted through this site through February 8. I approached the CryptoZoo project like everything else I am passionate about – with only the best possible intentions and success for everyone who shared our vision. I never made a single penny from the project, period. In fact, the opposite is true, because I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to make it happen. With this buy-back program, I am personally committing more than $2.3 million to buy back Base Eggs and Base Animals from every person who intends to play CryptoZoo. Like you, I was highly disappointed that the game was not delivered. “

“This buy-back is a way for me to make whole those who intended to play CryptoZoo. The buy-back is not intended to compensate those who gambled on the crypto market and lost. It’s important to remember that the Zoo Token was created to support the CryptoZoo game and its players; it was “not intended as an investment vehicle,” as outlined in the original WhitePaper.”
