Abstract

CopyrightLY is a decentralised application designed to manage copyrights using blockchain and semantic web technologies. Integrated into social media platforms, it allows content creators to register authorship claims and set reuse conditions, while potential reusers can verify authorship and terms. The system uses smart contracts to manage claims, complaints, and reuse agreements, with evidence stored on decentralised storage like IPFS. A unique token-based incentive mechanism encourages the curation of authorship claims by requiring creators to stake tokens, which can be lost if claims are disputed. The Copyright Ontology models legal constructs and actions, enabling machine-actionable terms and license evaluation. This robust framework aims to serve as a foundation for future services within the ONTOCHAIN ecosystem, such as copyright management for social media and data marketplaces.
