If you don't understand the first part of the title, you're not alone! There was a delightful dust up between Wizards of the Coast and something called a DAO over Magic the Gathering. It turns out you're not just allowed to profit off of other people's IP? Cryto bros were very surprised to learn this. Andrew decodes it for us. Then, we finally get a thorough breakdown of what happened in the Palin v. NYT case. You may have heard it was dismissed, but it may not be over yet! It's a weird story with a lot of twists and turns.

I’m anti-crypto. But, I don’t think you demonstrated that a copyright infringement would occur in the MTG situation. The NFT is a receipt for a reference to a card. It isn’t a copy of the card. This is people making custom rules in the dumbest, most libertarian, least environmentally friendly way ever.
