Web 3.0 Law

Trademark Protection in Web 3.0

Protecting trademarks in Web 3.0, including NFTs, is complex and often misunderstood. It’s crucial to differentiate between creating a trademark for digital products, like NFTs, and strengthening a traditional trademark for Web 3.0. The goal is to secure trademark rights to effectively combat infringements in this digital space. For trademarks covering digital assets, virtual goods, or online marketing and financial services, a tailored protection strategy is imperative. This strategy must account for Web 3.0 specifics to be effective.

At Dreyfus.io, we assist in protecting your intellectual property in the metaverse. Our method starts by identifying the most appropriate product and service classes for your needs. We then precisely draft your trademark’s description, ensuring it is effectively protected, especially in digital environments like the metaverse.

To optimize your protection, we offer a comprehensive audit service to review your existing trademarks for their potential integration into the metaverse. We consider each NFT’s functionality, covering aspects such as sales promotion, social media visibility, traceability, and financing.

Domain Name Protection in Web 3.0

Protecting your domain names in Web 3.0 is crucial due to the increasing number of domain names and counterfeiting risks. Like Web 2.0, Web 3.0 has its own naming system. Many blockchains, such as Ethereum or Solana, offer a naming system to identify blockchain tokens, similar to traditional domain names. You can create a “domain name” in a blockchain to identify a wallet, NFT, or land in the metaverse. Important blockchain domain names include <.eth>, <.btc>, <.ada>, <.crypto>, <.nft>, <.wallet>, <.coin>, <.bitcoin>, <.dcl.eth>, etc.

However, these Web 3.0 domain extensions are not regulated by ICANN and are not subject to UDRP-like dispute resolution procedures. Therefore, consulting a professional is essential, especially if the desired domain is already taken.

At Dreyfus.io, we can help secure your domain names in Web 3.0, especially if the desired domain is already taken. Our team can assist in securing your presence in Web 3.0 and protecting your digital assets.

Monitoring Domain Names and Platforms in Web 3.0

Creating a strategic domain name is crucial for business success, but monitoring that domain name throughout its lifecycle is even more critical. What if a conflict arises with an existing domain name, significantly harming your business results? While managing damages as they occur is possible, adopting a preventive approach can be more strategic and effective in mitigating risks before they arise. Fortunately, we offer Web 3.0 monitoring services at various levels, including:

  • Domain name monitoring to detect trademark or other rights violations.
  • Virtual land name monitoring.
  • Monitoring major platforms like Open Sea, Crypto.com, Rarible, Nifty Gateway, CryptoPunks/Larva Labs, Super Rare, Known Origin, Binance, Solanart, WAX, and Mintable.

At Dreyfus.io, our legal experts in domain name dispute resolution can assist in developing a solid defensive strategy that aligns with your business objectives.
