#CZ #CZBULL I saw today that many people are saying that the creator of the CZ bull meme/ comic image has applied for image copyright, while many others say that because the image includes Binance, how could he possibly apply for copyright?
Actually, you’re all getting it wrong.
The facts are:
1. What the creator is currently applying for is not copyright (Copyright), but the “CZBULL” word mark (trademark word mark);
2. He can indeed apply for the copyright of this image, even though it contains Binance’s trademark and the likeness of Changpeng Zhao. However, copyright registration authorities typically register the work itself and that does not mean they’re recognizing that all elements within the work belong to the applicant. In other words, he can apply for the copyright of this image, but if it’s used commercially, it involves Binance’s trademark rights and Zhao Changpeng’s likeness rights. Binance authorization would be needed.
So, if this image is used commercially, the three parties—the creator, Zhao Changpeng, and Binance—each have their own rights, and none of them can use it commercially on their own.
3. In practice, since these meme coins are all issued anonymously, copyright and trademark ownership only affect whether a certain token can be listed on an exchange (the rights holder can request that an unauthorized token be delisted from the exchange).
4. The key point is not “copyright.” The key point is that BSC memes have long become the most PVP and the most fragmented/battlefield for liquidity routing. Even if it’s not copyright-related, you can still take other angles to divert users and attention. Ten KOLs can divert you ten times. Everyone knows that’s how BSC is—so why still fantasize that a meme can be held long-term????
