Ontario Superior Court of Justice (ONSC) Allows Service via NFT Airdrop
McRae-Yu v. Profitly Incorporated et. al – (June 15, 2023) – Sohaib acted for the Plaintiff in a class action involving the sale of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The Ontario Superior Court of Justice (ONSC) allowed service of the statement of claim and Mareva injunction Order via an NFT airdrop into 13 cryptocurrency wallets. This appears to be the first time a Canadian court has allowed Defendants to be served through an NFT airdrop.
