LAS VEGAS, Aug. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- TuneGO^®, a leading Web3 music platform, was awarded by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") two new patents for technology that protects content creators and copyright owners.

"The patented TuneGO Vault demystifies and simplifies Web3 for creators, and TuneGO's Web3 marketplace is the community gateway to the new culture of fans, collectors, and consumers," said John Kohl, Co-Founder and CEO of TuneGO. "We continue to lead with innovation and are pleased the U.S. Patent Office has once again recognized the uniqueness of our proprietary technology as we forge ahead into the future of Web3."

TuneGO has been granted the following two U.S. patents:

• U.S. Patent No. 11,250,111—The patent is directed toward technology for verifying, via the digital vault, a completeness of the content metadata associated with the media content in the container file and identifying a salable content item that is to be put up for sale via a non-fungible token (NFT) transaction, while prohibiting the sale of the salable content item until consent for the sale is received from each stakeholder from whom consent is required.
• U.S. Patent No. 11,256,788—The patent is directed toward technology for populating an NFT container file with a salable content item and a specification of ownership rights to the salable content item, offering the ownership rights to the salable content item for sale via an NFT transaction, and updating the NFT container file to reflect change in the ownership rights to the salable content after sale of the salable content item.
