According to Decrypt, Asif Kamal, founder and CEO of art technology company Artfi, said that he has sent a legal notice to Yuga Labs, the manufacturer of Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC), because he suffered an eye infection and facial burns at the ApeFest event in Hong Kong last week. ApeFest participants reportedly suffered eye injuries due to improper lighting settings at the event. Yuga Labs told Decrypt on Monday that they are investigating the matter and taking it seriously. It is speculated that UV-C bulbs (used for disinfection) were used at the event instead of black lights. Yuga Labs has not yet responded to Decrypt's request for comment. Kamal said that he had sent a "legal notice" to Yuga, which is the first step in filing a lawsuit against them.
