<h3><strong>Vincent Van Dough Takes on RTFKT and Nike?&nbsp;</strong></h3>
<p class="p1">Remember the drama regarding the <a href="https://luckytrader.com/nft/asset/clonex?sortType=1" rel="follow">Clone X</a> terms of service? NFT personality and investor Vincent Van Dough has stoked the flames. Van Dough has directly challenged the clause regarding the inability to fractionalize assets by purchasing a Clone X asset and creating a vault for fractionalization on <a href="https://fractional.art/" target="_blank" rel="follow noopener">fractional.art</a></p>
<p class="p1">The act brings in to question whether or not terms of this magnitude can be enforceable on-chain and if so, how RTFKT, and now Nike, plan to deal with it.&nbsp;</p>
<center>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">I have fractionalized CloneX #17707 by <a href="https://twitter.com/RTFKTstudios?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@RTFKTstudios</a> x <a href="https://twitter.com/Nike?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Nike</a> and made 20% of supply available at <a href="https://t.co/vGU9O1HSXy">https://t.co/vGU9O1HSXy</a><br /><br />Will also be airdropping a small amount of shares to the first 100 accounts older than 1 month to respond with their ETH address on this thread. <a href="https://t.co/voFTEmdlKc">pic.twitter.com/voFTEmdlKc</a></p>

<h3><strong>Clone X Reveal</strong></h3>
<p>On Sunday afternoon the long awaited minting and unveiling of Clone X avatars started. Nearly 15,000 Clone X avatars have been minted thus far, with the remaining 5,000 mint vials having up to six months to undergo the process. While the Clone X project has been unable to completely push away the "post-reveal drop" that has befallen many projects with delayed reveals, it has certainly held its ground with a floor price still north of 2 ETH. There is however, a wide discrepancy in price for the mint vials and floor Clone X avatars. At the time of writing users can purchase two Clone X avatars (2.39 ETH floor) for less than the price of one mintvial (5.17 ETH). For many, the opportunity to pull a Clone X with Murakami Drip or other rare attributes can make this risky trade compelling. Notable Clone X avatars have already seen trades above 50 ETH.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Unfortunately, it wasn't just the reveal that caught the eye of the public last night. A late unveiling of terms and conditions, license type drama, and the inability to fractionalize the Clone X NFTs all generated some buzz on NFT Twitter. The Clone X team has yet to make an announcement regarding any of these issues.&nbsp;</p>
<p>It's important to note that the Clone X rarity rankings are not final as there are still approximately 5,000 NFTs outstanding.&nbsp;</p>
