Gate News: On March 11, NBA-themed crypto project Basketball.fun is processing refunds for digital card pack buyers who are unwilling to wait for its marketplace platform to launch next month. The project began allowing users to purchase digital player card packs of NBA players in January, but users currently cannot sell or trade these assets. The co-founder of the project stated that they have received 24 refund requests totaling less than $2,000. The company is also offering a 10% holding bonus to users willing to wait until the NBA playoffs in April to start trading. NBA player Tristan Thompson, who served as an advisor for the project, has exited the project. Thompson said he is proud to have supported this vision in its early stages, but as the platform continues to develop, he is no longer actively involved. The project team said Thompson exited a few weeks ago and is now exploring other opportunities. Basketball.fun plans to launch digital card pack sales later this month on the Base chain to expand its ecosystem.
