Identified Challenges in Digital Content Licensing and Distribution

The client faces difficulties in establishing a transparent, secure, and tamper-proof licensing system for digital content. Current platforms impose high fees, lack control for contributors over pricing and rights, and do not provide immutable proof of ownership or transactions. This hampers trust, incentivizes intermediaries, and complicates rights management for creators.

About the Client

A mid-sized technology company seeking to revolutionize digital content distribution by offering contributors direct control over licensing, pricing, and copyrights through blockchain technology.

Goals for Developing a Blockchain-Based Digital Content Marketplace

  • Create a decentralized platform enabling contributors to manage their digital assets with full control over pricing, licensing, and copyrights.
  • Implement a secure, immutable transaction trace using blockchain technology to provide public proof of ownership and licensing agreements.
  • Reduce transactional fees and processing times compared to traditional platforms.
  • Facilitate seamless mass uploading of content to attract a large contributor base.
  • Support both fiat and cryptocurrency payments for licensing transactions.
  • Incorporate content recognition, filtering, and automatic tagging to improve content discoverability and quality control.
  • Establish an end-to-end user verification process (KYC) to ensure trust and compliance.

Core Functional System Requirements for the Marketplace

  • Secure license management system stored on blockchain ensuring tamper-proof ownership records.
  • Mass upload functionality enabling contributors to transfer large portfolios efficiently.
  • Payment processing supporting both traditional FIAT currency and ERC20 tokens.
  • Complete user verification (KYC) integrated into registration and transaction processes.
  • Content recognition and filtering using AI platforms to detect inappropriate content.
  • Duplicate detection to prevent content redundancy and piracy.
  • Automatic content tagging for improved searchability and categorization.

Technologies and Architectural Preferences

Blockchain platform inspired by Ethereum for transaction immutability and traceability
Web development frameworks supporting rapid deployment and scalability
Integration with AI platforms for content recognition, filtering, and tagging
Secure payment processing integrations for FIAT and ERC20 tokens

External System Integrations Needed

  • AI-based content recognition and filtering services
  • Cryptocurrency payment gateways
  • Traditional payment processors for FIAT transactions
  • User verification systems (KYC providers)

Key Non-Functional System Requirements

  • High scalability to support large numbers of content uploads and transactions
  • Fast transaction processing times with minimal latency
  • Robust security measures ensuring data integrity and confidentiality
  • High system availability and reliability

Projected Business Impact and Benefits

The new decentralized digital content marketplace aims to significantly lower transaction costs, enhance transparency, and empower content creators with full control over their work. By providing immutable proof of licensing and ownership, the platform will foster increased trust and engagement, leading to a targeted 30% growth in contributor participation and a substantial boost in revenue streams within the first year.
