The NFT OpenSea marketplace has once again placed a CryptoPunks clone based on Polygon after counter-notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).
The PolygonPunks project tweeted that its Polygon-based NFTs are back on OpenSea. The NFT collection appeared on the site after the creator of CryptoPunks – Larva Labs – responded to the PolygonPunks notification sent under the DMCA.
Thus, one of the most successful NFT collections, hosted on OpenSea in August and then deleted at the request of Larva Labs, is back on sale.
“PolygonPunks RETURNED TO @Opensea! The DMCA counter-notification at Larva Labs was successful. We have resumed trading on the world’s largest NFT marketplace. We look forward to establishing a relationship with @ 0xPolygon and its ecosystem as we grow on the Polygon network.

Larva Labs has received a DMCA counter-notice from PolygonPunks. The document refers to the removal of the Larva Labs NFT based on notice. In this notice, the studio claims that its rights to content on the Internet were not respected under US copyright law.
According to the DMCA, the PolygonPunks project was required to notify that its NFTs were “removed or disabled due to an error or incorrect identification.” Larva Labs will no longer be able to remove crypto banks without a court order.
Copyright disputes periodically arise in the cryptocurrency industry. For example, in January, Craig Wright demanded that the publisher of bitcoin.org (known as Cobra) remove the Bitcoin White Paper from the site, accusing him of infringing his copyright, which has yet to be proven. Cobra refused and the case went to trial. The High Court of London has recognized Wright’s rights to the Bitcoin White Paper. By court order, bitcoin.org administrator closed access to British users to Bitcoin Core software and Bitcoin White Paper
