Flappy Bird Creator Denounces New Game, No Crypto Involvement

A decade after Flappy Bird’s disappearance, the Flappy Bird Foundation announced plans to relaunch the game. However, creator Dong Nguyen swiftly denied involvement, stating he “did not sell anything” and doesn’t “support crypto.”

Nguyen’s Disavowal

Nguyen’s statement doesn’t directly contradict the Foundation’s claim of acquiring rights from Gametech Holdings, LLC, which apparently terminated Nguyen’s trademark. The Foundation describes itself as “a new team of passionate fans.” But Nguyen’s post clarifies his lack of participation and apparent displeasure.

Crypto Concerns

While the Foundation’s public materials omit crypto references, researcher Varun Biniwale discovered a hidden webpage mentioning Flappy Bird’s potential Web 3.0 integration on Solana. Whether this points to future plans or abandoned ideas remains unclear.

Flappy Bird’s Legacy

Initially released in 2013, Flappy Bird rapidly gained viral popularity, becoming a top app on iOS and Android. Nguyen famously removed the app in 2014, citing overwhelming pressure. This new development adds another layer to the game’s complex history.
