This paper presents an attempt to conceptualize the state of intellectual property (IP) in science in the context of digital transformation mediated by DLT and blockchain. The focus is on NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens), CC0 NFTs (Creative Common Zero Non-Fungible Tokens) as NFTs released into the public domain under a CC0 license, and IP-NFTs, or Intellectual Property Non-Fungible Tokens — unique digital assets that use blockchain technology to represent ownership of a piece of IP such as research and other creative works as well as to raise funds.
