Certifying Your Rights When Minting NFTs on Mintable

Mintable is committed to upholding copyright laws, supporting original creators, and preventing fraudulent activity.

When creating and minting NFTs on Mintable, it's essential that you own the rights to the work you're turning into an NFT. This helps protect artists, collectors, and the integrity of the platform.

If you took an image from Google, Instagram, or other social media locations and added a photo filter or text to an image does not qualify as your work or rights. You cannot list it as an NFT!

✅ What You Agree to When Minting

During the minting process, you must confirm that:

• You are the original creator of the work OR

• You have explicit permission to use the content for NFT creation

Mintable does not allow:

• Copying images from Google, Instagram, or social media

• Applying simple filters or adding text to someone else’s image and claiming ownership

• Listing works you didn’t create without documented authorization

⚠️ Disclaimers like "no infringement intended" or "all rights belong to the original creator" do not make unauthorized minting acceptable.

🧠 Questions to Ask Before Minting

Ask yourself:

1. Do you own the original rights to all assets in your NFT?

2. If not, have you created a new, transformative work that adds significant expression or meaning?

3. Will your NFT negatively impact the original creator's value or rights?

4. Do you have written authorization to use someone else's content?

5. If you're modifying existing NFT art (e.g. CryptoPunks, BAYC), do you own the original NFT in your wallet?

If the answer to any of these is "no," you likely should not mint that work on Mintable.
