CopyrightLY: Blockchain and Semantic Web for Decentralised Copyright ManagementRoberto García
CopyrightLY focuses on building an authorship and rights management layer that provides a set of services to claim authorship, on both content and data. Moreover, it also makes it possible to attach reuse terms to these claims, which state the conditions to reuse the associated data or content. This authorship and rights management layer will constitute the foundation for future services built on top of it, like social media copyright management or media monetisation through NFTs.
