An important thing that people don't understand is that
tokens will always require a legal aspect to be functional.If you tokenised goods then the goods do not become digital
More importantly, how do you
protect digital rights even if you're talking about digitising these because nothing on the Blockchain is encrypted and if you're
selling rights to access something, you're also selling rights to decrypt
So even if you are talking about a
digital asset nothing stops someone from
copying that and recreating it outside of the law
If you have tokenised video the truth of the matter is it is only law and courts that stop individuals from making copies of that and from broadcasting it themselves even for money
Let's take an example - you make a new video from your band's music and you sell it using
tokensApple for instance has their own distribution platform, they buy a single copy of that video and now have access to decrypt it
Rather than paying you, they reissue their own
token and sell your video
It is only due to the fact that we can
legally link ownership to individuals and take action that allows people to stop Apple from rebranding and selling that video that you have created and allowing your group to make money and not be beholden to a large company
Bitcoin does not solve these issues using technology, it
provides evidence that allows a legal solutionIf you start to think about it, this concept that bitcoin or
derivatives are encrypted has made a false concept that allows individuals to promote a conncept that
property rights don't exist
By being able to
fork an
asset anybody can just take over the rights of another
This is especially easily done on
digital assets.
You require an ability to easily prove
property rights and this requires courts and law
All of this posturing is logically flawed.
Individual sit there telling you how they want to protect your property rights using tokens including those that are digitally created yet they fail to tell you that the token does not do that
you need a combination of
identity, a
ledger such as what bitcoin provides and a number of other aspects to make something that is a innovative
token solutionand, tokens outside of the main chain are not innovation at all
