MetaHorse: Gabriel Khoury, a crypto lawyer is officially part of the Metahorse as a Legal Advisor
NFTs, like any other assets, are subject to legal implications concerning ownership, copyright, fraudulent trading, cyber security, and contractual liabilities. Unfortunately, as an emerging technology, few lawyers are currently well-versed in the technicalities of NFT technology. It’s no exception for MetaHorse.
The potential legal risks of NFT
Blockchain as a shared (or decentralized) digital ledger platform has been credited for increasing visibility and transparency, thus helping with fraud detection due to sharing real-time information and allowing all participants in blockchain visibility over transactions.
At the same time, with the recent surge in the value of NFTs, there could be many unexpected legal risks behind. Here’s a list of things we should comply with and keep an eye on:
- Compliance with SEC, FinCen, and state laws concerning virtual currency
- Anti-money laundering and money-transmission compliance
- Structuring sale of NFTs as regulated securities
- Tax planning for NFT transactions
- Intellectual property governance, including royalties
- Setting up corporate entities and LLCs to hold NFTs
- Asset protection strategies
- Consultation on the most advantageous platforms and blockchains for NFTs
- Implementation of smart contracts for blockchain transactions
