Any creator could encounter situations of illegal actions from the third party in relation to their work. But how does one protect himself better to avoid this challenge? One way is to spend around eight months until you collect all the necessary evidence, fill in a copyright application, sign papers, pay fees and just wait. Sounds time-wasting, right? The second way suggested by GPCC (Global Protected Crypto Copyright) project offers authors and creative people a different and more reliable solution to the protection of copyright, based on blockchain technology. It doesn’t take much time, and the system is way more efficient. You only need to do two things: register and send your file. The rest is done by the team.
Once your copyright is confirmed, you can place your work on the GPCC marketplace of author works or goods to sell it. Here you will have to follow a few simple steps.
- Choose the file you want to sell
- Specify the price for your work and license type (single, multiple, unlimited)
- Make your work public on the market so that all users of the platform will see it
- You can also publish products in the marketplace of goods
The GPCC has an experienced team behind the project, and that carries a strong vision. Here is what they claim to believe in relation to copyright protection:
- Creative individuals should be fairly awarded for their contribution.
- The usual licensing process should be more efficient.
- Participants in the market should have access to reliable information on authorship and license.
- Payment information should be fully transparent and accessible to rights holders.
Unfortunately, many people use original works for their purposes without referencing them at all. Not all of them are conscious that this means stealing, because "everyone does it." We include graphic works, images, and art in our PowerPoint presentations at work, at events or as students and the author never finds out his/her work has been used. This system which is now out of control could be changed with the launch of GPCC platform as it offers a solution for protection for both the author and a consumer. Authors can register their copyrights and afterward, they can happily sell their creations in the marketplace. Therefore, users will not be at risk of committing any illegalities when they buy the work directly from the source.
Want to join GPCC? The pre-sale is already live, and it ends on March 31, 2018. The funds collected during the sale will be spent on fees to development of a prototype project, specialists, and the following token sale campaign. For more details about the main token sale or tokens utility on the platform, head to their official website at https://gpcc.io/

Steady, I like her
Copyright seems like one of the most logical areas for blockchain deployment.
