Case Details: They requested a review of potential legal risks associated with using copyrighted works from an overseas NFT project owned by a domestic corporation to promote their services. This includes examining whether such usage violates the terms of service or copyright laws and assessing the legal risks of conducting business activities domestically without the project’s consent.

Decent's Strategy: Ownership of an NFT and the copyright associated with it are separate rights, meaning compliance with the project’s terms of service is necessary.

If the project sets limitations on copyright usage, explicit or implicit permission from the copyright holder is generally required for commercial use.

Based on these principles, Decent Law Firm conducted an in-depth review of the project’s terms of service, copyright law, and relevant international cases.

Outcome: We provided advisory services on the potential criminal and civil legal risks that may arise if the client uses NFT copyrights for commercial purposes without authorization. We clarified actions that may be interpreted as implicit consent by the copyright holder and outlined key precautions to help the client alleviate concerns while operating their business.
