    • Hopeful TXT fans are disappointed by the rules, and they also urge BIGHIT Music to figure out ways how other fans without a membership can also take part in similar events.
    • On Tuesday, March 8, BIGHIT Music announced the sports event will take place on March 26 via the multiverse platform, Zep.
    • After all, they see this as HYBE's way of introducing NFTs. The multiverse app ZEP reportedly displays and sells NFTs.
