Burnt Ape Yacht Club: Questioning the copyright protections of NFT owners

<p>On Thursday, a social media personality who goes by Taylor.wtf performed an act that enraged members of The Bored Ape Yacht Club: he burnt an ape, casting it into the ether never to be claimed by anybody ever again. This wasn't the first time an NFT had been burned but it is one of the first known times of an individual attempting to profit off that act by selling derivative pieces of the burnt art.</p> <p>In this special edition of the NFT Nick Show I explore what happened and reach out to some of the members of the community. Enjoy!</p>
