Hello guys and gals, it’s me Mutahar again! This time we take a look at a situation where one of the biggest brands in the world of NFTs, Bored Apes Yacht Club hosted an event in Hong Kong that left it’s attendees potentially blind for the rest of their lives.
Note from me the poster: I added a bit title, because the original title is not descriptive.
Not unshielded, short-wave UV lamps used for sterilization. Stupid people sourcing the wrong lamps and stupid operators smelling ozone and not knowing what it means.

Unshielded UV light apparently.
No clue the actual risk profile of that.

Not sure what’s worse, NFTs or the absolute lack of concern most who invest in them have for things like the wellbeing of others
Worst is that it happened before in Japan so the organizers should have known.
But also the blind forever is exaggerated, uvc exposure damage to the eyes is temporary.

It doesn’t say ‘forever’. It says ‘for the rest of their lives’ so it depends how much time they have left.
