Frequently Asked Questions

Essential documents include Terms and Conditions, NFT License Agreement, Privacy Policy, Entity Formation documents (LLC/Corp), Intellectual Property assignments, DMCA policy, and potentially securities disclosures. We also recommend contributor agreements for team members and clear roadmap disclaimers.

NFT royalties are typically programmed into smart contracts but their enforceability varies by platform and jurisdiction. We help structure royalty mechanisms that are legally sound, technically implementable, and aligned with platform policies. This includes addressing resale rights, platform fees, and international royalty laws.

NFTs may be securities if they represent investment contracts under the Howey test. Factors include marketing emphasizing investment returns, promises of future development increasing value, profit-sharing mechanisms, or staking rewards. We analyze your specific project and recommend structures to minimize securities law risk.
