Overview

An intellectual property (IP) situation is evolving within the meme token ecosystem. Recently, the Own The Doge DAO, a collective that maintains the original 'doge' meme, announced its acquisition of rights to use images of Neiro, a pet Shiba Inu. A discussion is underway in the community about how various NEIRO tokens could appropriately utilize this IP.

Key Points:

• Own The Doge DAO mentioned they secured usage rights for images of Neiro.
• Community members and external stakeholders are invited to provide input on the future use of Neiro's IP.
• Neiro is the Shiba Inu adopted by Kabosu, the original dog behind the 'doge' meme, following her passing.

Continuing Story

The community discussion revolves around how to proceed with Neiro's IP rights. According to a statement on X, Own The Doge DAO confirmed:

“We’re pleased to announce that @kabosumama has officially granted our DAO the Neiro IP.” Translation: "Estamos contentos de anunciar que @kabosumama nos ha otorgado oficialmente a nuestro DAO el IP de Neiro."

The announcement has led to numerous discussions from various token teams advocating for their versions of Neiro. Kabosumama clarified her position on the various tokens, stating:

“I do not endorse any crypto project except @ownthedog $dog...”
Translation: "No apoyo ningún proyecto criptográfico excepto @ownthedog $dog..."

Consequences Ahead

This situation reflects the growing intersection of IP rights and crypto projects, as well as the potential for legal challenges should the IP be misrepresented. Notably, other token teams are stepping forward to claim legitimacy, each vying for a solidified place in the narrative surrounding Neiro's life and image.
