Last week @memehive bought an NFT minted by @japex1226 for 560,000 MEME. You might have read about it in a post by @dynamiccrypto.

There is only one edition of this NFT minted under a Limited Production Rights license. Now that @memehive owns the NFT @memehive has rights to make derivative reproductions of @japex1226's design. Since the original beehive logo was under a Creative Commons CC-BY license before buying the NFT I insisted that the NFT design @japex1226 wanted to sell also be under a Creative Commons license to reflect the meme philosophy of sharing and @japex1226 graciously agreed to put the design under a CC-BY-SA license. This gives members of the community similar rights to adapt and transform @japex1226's original design.
This is a special case. Users who mint NFTs on hiveme.me as Limited Production Rights can restrict reproduction rights to only owners of editions of the NFT without putting the NFT design under a Creative Commons license if they wish. This NFT purchase was a way of paying @japex1226 for a logo license the members of the community can use.
As an example of how this new logo design can be adapted I added a Matrix-like background I found on Wikimedia Commons by user Ceedub88. I slowed down the background to give it a more dreamscape aesthetic. Using the unedited background I feel would make it look like MEME BEE popped some bad pills and this isn't a weedcash.network post.

Maybe MEME BEE will eventually become Hive's version of Pepe the Frog (pre-2014). If you use the design please always remember to credit @japex1226 as the original artist and that it's used under a Creative Commons license.
What the heck. I'll add a copyright free Giphy background and let MEME BEE have some fun. Now you all have something to share on weedcash.network while you work on your own remixes of @japex1226's design. Sharing is caring!
