Moonbirds Just Made All Their NFTs Public Domain

A major shift for the wildly popular NFT Project, Kevin Rose, founder of Moonbirds, posted through Twitter that both Moonbirds and Oddities will transition to a CC0 licensing.

CC0 also known as Creative Commons, simply signifies "no rights are reserved" in the field of intellectual property. It's a type of copyright which allows creators to give up their legal interest for their creations and to move it, to the extent feasible into in the realm of the commons. This means that anyone is able to use Moonbirds NFT art without restrictions on copyright.

"In our new world," Rose said in the tweet, "true ownership is dictated by the data recorded on the chain in the way it ought to be, not by an archived record maintained by a corporate or government organization."

This significant announcement comes just a few days following famous crypto artist XCOPY revealed that they would retroactively apply the CC0 for all their artwork. Of course, except for their collaboration pieces. Moonbirds along with XCOPY aren't the only ones in this respect as well. Others NFT creators such as Deca have recently completed successful project launches under CC0 and artists such as Grant Yun looking to follow the same pattern shortly in the CC0 transition.

Goblintown is one of the largest projects to have hit in the NFT scene in recent months, was famously launched under the CC0 umbrella as well. Due to this, the charts at OpenSea were dominating by goblin-themed collections that were snarky for a period of time. Many figures in the field such as Zeneca_33 are calling this trend in the form of"CC0 summer "CC0 season" which refers to the appearance of a new, dominant meta centered around CC0 within the NFT landscape.

Rose also announced the imminent establishment of the Moonbirds DAO, which will concentrate on the licensing process for trademarks like the Moonbirds as well as the Oddities trademarks, and also prevent fraud, hate speech and violence in the community. The community members will be notified of changes to the terms of service for the project and website over the next few days. In the coming days, members of the Moonbirds staff will be hosting an open Q&A session the 5th of August in the Moonbirds Parliament Twitter Spaces.
