The following formulations have now been adopted by the Offices: “downloadable digital files authenticated by non-fungible tokens [NFT]” in class 9; “downloadable virtual goods, namely computer programs featuring clothing for use online and in online virtual worlds” in Class 9 for virtual goods; “electronic transfer of downloadable digital files authenticated by non-fungible tokens [NFT]” in class 36 with respect to digital currencies.
