I'm curious about the copyright status of Bitcoin logos. Are these designs protected under copyright laws? Are there specific rights holders who can claim ownership over the various Bitcoin logos that are widely used? If so, what are the legal implications for those who may be using these logos without proper authorization? Is there a clear-cut definition of when and how these logos can be utilized without infringing on copyright? Given the decentralized nature of Bitcoin, how does copyright law apply in this context? I'd appreciate any clarification on this matter.
