Abstract

China’s NFT digital collectibles are a new type of digital asset with Chinese characteristics based on policies, technologies, platforms, and consumer demands. The transaction process involves a large amount of intellectual property rights and interests transfer content. Based on reading and sorting out archives and the intellectual property law, this paper draws the “binary structure” characteristics of digital collectibles, with a view to making more accurate judgments on the legal attributes of digital collectibles, to maximize the legal protection regarding different intellectual property rights of authors and buyers under different links and contract provisions of digital collectible transactions. At the same time, it aims to contribute to the regulatory compliance and judicial practice of the NFT commerce, promote the development of the digital economy, stimulate the digital collectible market, enhance cultural identity, etc., and eventually providing reference for relevant research on digital collectibles.
