Voxels Office Closure Signals Major Industry Shift

**Voxels is shutting down its physical office** as the virtual world platform prepares for a major downsizing. The company's leadership announced they're **selling the office space** and dramatically reducing team size from 30 to just 3 people. **Key changes:** - Office closure and sale in progress - Team reduction from 30 to 3 members - Shift to AI-powered operations using modern LLMs The move reflects a **broader trend in tech** where companies are leveraging AI tools to maintain operations with significantly smaller teams. Voxels, known for its Ethereum-based virtual world where users can build and trade blockchain-recorded property, appears to be **restructuring for efficiency** rather than shutting down entirely. This downsizing highlights how **AI is reshaping workforce needs** across the web3 and gaming sectors.
