Discover SCENEVoid Labs-backed Blade of God X (BoGX), a blockchain-powered action RPG that raised millions from top crypto investors, came under scrutiny after a public fallout between its core teams.On Tuesday, Amber Bella, former CMO of Blade of God X (BoGX), posted a series of tweets on X, formerly Twitter, accusing the game’s founder, Tnise Liu Yang, and the Web2 development team of mismanagement, reward manipulation, and cutting off the Web3 community that initially funded the project.“I must now confront the painful truth: this project has failed to deliver on the promises to the community,” she wrote, saying she never handled BoGX funds herself. Instead, she said she trusted founder Tnise Liu Yang’s “experience and character as a 10-year entrepreneur.”Bella said tensions began in October 2024 during the launch of BoGX’s Ethereal NFT Collection, which promised exclusive staking rights and gameplay benefits.BoGX: A Confession After weeks of silence while exploring every possible avenue to save the project and consulting with legal advisors, I must finally share the truth behind what's happened with BoGX.
