I remember back during the NFT hype cycle how people were claiming they’d patented particular shades of color and were selling rights to them on the blockchain.
I gotta wonder who even enforces this shit. Where do you go to register a font-type you claim you own that looks shockingly similar to a font people have been using since the printing press was invented? So much of this just feels like vexatious litigation. “Ah, yes, that’s actually my ‘a’ and you need to pay me $20k to use it”.
Owning literal letters has got to be the dumbest shit I’ve heard in my life. Fucking leeches.

They own a font, which is a way of writing the letters. Wondering though, how many Japanese fonts are there?
They don’t own “literal letters.”
They just own the token which represents the ownership of the literal letters.
oh fuck kill me the day we’re gonna have to buy letter nfts instead of fonts
