Artists and creators struggle to make money under the current economic model of the rights management industry. Third-parties and piracy both work to undercut their ability to capitalize on their work, and a lack of transparency in the distribution process makes it difficult to see what they’re actually owed. RightsLedger looks to address the issue with a blockchain-based ecosystem that allows users to safeguard their work and reach a wider audience for distribution in an economy that removes the traditional barriers between artists and consumers.

Creating a Fair and Equitable Marketplace

With RightsLedger, creators have a new platform to sell their work directly to distributors or independent buyers that is easier and more secure to use than the existing solutions by harnessing blockchain technology. Artists can upload and authenticate their work to prevent unauthorized duplication, and are able to manage their data and track their sales within the platform. The transaction between buyer and seller is transparent and secure, with smart contracts ensuring instantaneous delivery of content in exchange for Rights Tokens. And creators have access to more international markets in which to sell their work.

With RightsLedger, we’re returning the power of rights management and content monetization to the creative class that serve as the lifeblood of the artistic community. We’re using the security and transparency of the blockchain to provide artists an avenue to build direct relationships with their fans and supporters while also knowing that they are being fairly compensated for their labors.

Get Involved with RightsLedger

We’ll use this forum to examine the world of blockchain and rights management and to detail how we’re working to change content rights management and content monetization into the simple, transparent and fair marketplace that it should be.

We’d love to hear from you — let us know what you think about the state of blockchain and rights management in the comments.
