    Beyond Physical Copies: Assessing the Applicability of the Doctrine of Exhaustion to NFTS and the Physical/Digital Dichotomy in Trademark and Copyright Law
    (NLUJAA, 2026) Aastha Pattanayak
    This dissertation has structural limitations as well as it primarily focuses on public, decentralised blockchain ecosystems (such as Ethereum) where on-chain proofs of alienation are cryptographically audible, meaning that private, permissioned ledgers fall outside its direct scope. Additionally, since the global legal landscape governing Web3 technologies is in a state of constant, volatile motion, several core legislative instruments analysed, such as the Digital India Act, are reviewed based on current draft white papers and emerging enforcement trends available up to 2026. Lastly, the research is limited by the technical realities of Link Rot and decentralised storage vulnerabilities, which limit the absolute stability of the underlying data outside the immediate blockchain ledger.
