Feb. 2, 2018, Can Blockchain Technology Solve Copyright Attribution Challenges of Digital Work? by Dr. Hadar Mazor, on IPWatchdog.com Practical blockchain purposes to solve copyright attribution problems: Efforts are being invested in leveraging blockchain technology to resolve challenges associated with copyright attribution to provide acknowledgment of copyright of a digital work of art to its holder or author. Problem: A digital work of art primarily exists in the form of intangible artifact and the digital work of art may not fit the form of the high-stakes international art market, which continues to rely on unique, original, tangible objects. Since a digital work of art does not yield artifacts that can be easily owned and traded in a conventional sense, their value may not be appropriately estimated. Copyright and other intellectual property tools are frequently employed to countervail this problem but with little success. Difficulty with this model: "Nonetheless, decentralized blockchain data storing technology relies on the trust of the group." She looks at a product called "NKOR" which "aims at utilizing a decentralized, cryptographically secure database blockchain-based technology, to document the recordation, reproduction, distribution and trade of digital works of art." http://www.ipwatchdog.com/2018/02/02/blockchain-technology-solve-copyright-attribution-digital-work/id=93161/ http://nkor.io 4.
