ZkSync developer under fire

Matter Labs, the developer behind zkSync, recently refuted allegations of “insider minting” related to its Libertas Omnibus non-fungible tokens (NFTs). 

The accusations, initially made by blockchain research firm SoEasy on June 17, suggested that Matter Labs distributed the NFTs to ineligible insiders.

In response, a Matter Labs representative clarified to Cointelegraph that “there were no invalid mints” and that the NFTs were legitimately acquired through interaction or by event attendees.
