The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and the U.S. Copyright Office published the results of a joint study on the intellectual property (IP) and policy implications of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The offices solicited public comments via a notice of inquiry, held three public roundtables, and examined literature and case law to conclude that the existing statutory enforcement mechanisms are currently sufficient to address infringement concerns related to NFT applications. More information can be found on the USPTO and Copyright Office websites.
