NFT website Mintable has managed to locate the three stolen NFTs and return them to their rightful owners. NFTs are reportedly tracked from other NFT marketplace LookRare.
Meanwhile, OpenSea’s legal department is also busy, as the market is the first ‘hacked Ape’ that could set a precedent for how responsible NFT marketplaces should be to secure their users’ assets.
