He saw the dark, negative effect it was having on people and put his morals over potential profit.

If more individuals and companies acted that way, perhaps the world would be a better place?

It would be a place lacking incentive and innovation. But hey, no flappy bird addiction because of “morals”

Out of all the crazy news recently... this was the last thing I was expecting.

I once imagined Flappy Bird IP would be sold and become NFT game Fapping Buds.

If this NFT story is true they need to remember NFTs involve crypto and gambling and both of these are not legally allowed for minors.

Crypto-shills and tech bros are too greedy to care, especially if this takeover is any indication. Hope MR updates this article or puts out a follow-up warning.

Flappy Bird was released in 2013 and quickly received tens of millions of downloads. However, the game was abruptly removed from the App Store in 2014 after its creator Dong Nguyen decided that the game was too addictive. Nguyen also disliked the excessive fame and attention that he started to receive as a result of the game's popularity.

Man... Dong Nguyen was a real one...

Imagine if any of the outlets that originally reported on this did an ounce of journalism to confirm anything with the original creator. Now lots of people got scammed. Actions have consequences.
