Artists, labels up in arms about 'HitPiece music NFTs'offered without consent
Independent music label Needlejuice Records is fighting back against a so-called"crypto-thief" that the company says is selling NFTs of their artists without authorization.

When asked about steps Needlejuice would take against these scammers in the future, Brown said that part of the problem was that"there's really no preventative measure to stop things from being minted. I could go and mint the webpage featuring this article and maybecould convince brokers not to list it, but it's still on the chain and in somebody's wallet forever."
