Non fungible tokens and IP issues
summary
Claim: NFTs can function as licensable business assets and even qualify as trade secrets when paired with point‑in‑time registries, enable royalty tracking and programmable privacy, but require carefully scoped IP rights and secure platforms. Practical tools discussed are smart contracts for rights and royalties, blockchain provenance and IIPCC IKR knowledge registry for timestamped creation, plus privacy-preserving tokens for confidentiality. Legal gaps and regulatory uncertainty remain; smart contract design and platform security determine whether the approach actually protects value.
