  • NFT marketplace Mintable said it is sending three NFTs that were stolen in a recent OpenSea exploit back to their rightful owners after finding them on the LooksRare marketplace and buying them. Mintable is first reaching out to the Azuki project where these NFTs originated to help identify the community members who own the tokens and then to open up a channel of communication to ensure that the NFTs returned remain secure.
