the NFT metadata still haven't changed ownership from beeple btw, though it's a bit understandable with an auction house doing the sale https://opensea.io/assets/0x2a46f2ffd99e19a89476e2f62270e0a35bbf0756/40913 also this link at christies does a good job of introducing the dude https://www.christies.com/features/Monumental-collage-by-Beeple-is-first-purely-digital-artwork-NFT-to-come-to-auction-11510-7.aspx

It's fundamentally just a hash value of something stored somewhere else, but on the blockchain.

You can easily prove you have the private key and own that particular token, and you can easily check that the object exists too. That's a good point about making a duplicate token pointing to the same object, but again it's easily to check which is the authentic token on the hosting website.

"Owning" some token with an URL means nothing to the legal system at all. And a duplicate NFT linking the same URL is just as legit as the first one, there's literally no difference but trust in the issuing authority.

Hard disagree, that's literally what a NFT is. Whether you think it's valid or not is up to you, but someone just valued one at $69 million dollars.

Currently yeah it means nothing, so I'm curious what would happen if they did get sued, it would set the precedent. Well if the duplicate NFT is not linked as the official token on the issuing authority, it's not legit at all... On a side note, I didn't know this was a thing - multiple editions of the same artwork - https://makersplace.com/marblemannequin/volatile-gold-26-of-50-53043/ I suppose it's like selling a limited number of prints

No, you can put the same hash value and URL on the Ethereum blockchain as many times as you like. An NFT doesn't prevent anything. salt shakeup posted:Hard disagree, that's literally what a NFT is.

You can launch your own NFT right now and claim to be the issuing authority for SA posts. Doesn't mean you can actually transfer any rights, but according to salt shakepup, that's just a small technicality the courts will surely rectify, going against all existing copyright.

Hey the wires got crossed on this one, I was talking about copyright in relation to another comment about the beeple artwork featuring Disney characters. But that is a good point, would the courts protect duplicate NFTs, or are they just worthless because they're not official. I have no idea, there's no precedent.

And even if it were listed on the "official website for the art", that doesn't imply you bought full ownership of the art at all? You'd have to check the original contract. Maybe the artists just wanted to transfer rights for personal reproduction, but nothing else. And what type of usage rights are included with the token, especially in countries where you can't transfer ownership of copyrighted material, just usage rights? Full usage?

There's plenty of precedent, you can't transfer more rights than you yourself have. NFTs are dumb scams to get rubes to buy links to jpegs that are meaningless without a detailed legal contract.

R>C>P please. so what happens when someone comes along and NFTs your artwork, or tweet, or what the gently caress ever, without asking you? Do they now own your artwork? Are they required to pay you royalties since they just sold your artwork? Copyright protections would side with the original artist if you're going by history, but you are claiming that the NEW PARADIGM of nft's means that whoever funge's it first is the owner of the artwork (even if they're not!)

Judges don't evaluate technology, expert witness do. But the expert witness on blockchain isn't going to matter when common law is applied to the property. Blockchain doesn't prove a transaction occurred. IOW, people who own things have a right to sell them without an obligation to record the transaction on the blockchain. Even if they bought it with the blockchain. Andy Dufresne fucked around with this message at 04:38 on Mar 12, 2021 |
