JPG Store Faces Criticism For Minting Derivative Project
Cardano's largest marketplace, JPG Store, was at the center of the community's outrage concerning the latest NFT derivative project, Bored Ape Cardano Club. JPG Store has responded by emphasizing that anyone can use their minting platform and does not endorse any project that uses it.
this logo is BAYC #9993, definitely trademark infringement. i wonder where jpg store draws the line, what's NOT ok to mint using their service?
am i allowed to use a nike-logo? what about if i use the @MallardOrder-logo, is that fine? genuinely curious where the line is π€

Other Markets
The overall sentiment is slightly positive in the NFT space, although ETH volume is down slightly. Solana makes up for it, however, with an impressive week, mainly thanks to a 100% increase in DeGods sales and an 80% increase in y00ts sales.
The numbers (7D)*
NFT 500 Index: +0.5%
Ethereum: $119M (-4%)
Solana: $26M (+40%)
Polygon: $6M (-39%)
ImmutableX: $6M (-20%)
Cardano $3.2M (+43%)
Flow: $1,8M (-5%)
BNB: $1.5M (-26%)
Cardano remains 5th in the rankings despite the 43% increase.

A mint I have been looking forward to for a long time @her_monsters has arrived, public is tomorrow but I have a few from the Prio list to share. The artwork is the best I have seen for a long time, the team is working hard to bring new depth to the space. Very bullish on this
