I love the way you put this, and it describes the realization I've only come to this year. It's weird being raised in an environment where you don't see any other alternatives, but now we have the tools to escape the greedy bastards while still getting true innovation.

Yes, we will look back to this time and wonder how we ever got on without it, once there is greater adoption. Exciting times!

Oh that's good. I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering all the interest you guys are getting.

How many people work on this project part time or full time?

Why is Photochain a great use case for true blockchain based business model?*

With p2p platform you keep the ownership of your own images, thus being able to set your own pricing and your own licensing type.

Blockchain allows instant payments in a matter of seconds. In many existing platforms, you are paid once per month for all the licenses sold during the month.

Blockchain also allows better copyright protection services. In current stock photography platforms, a manual team of people and compare if photos are copies of each other. However, this is time consuming and expensive. Blockchain allows each uploaded image to be analysed and compared to each other image in the decentralized database in a few moments to check for copyright infringement. A decentralized digital chain of ownership is maintained and therefore any image uploaded not by the indicated owner is immediately known.

All this improvement in services is what allows fees charged to photographers to be reduced from as much as 90% down to as little as 5%. Blockchain essentially automises, transfers data more efficiently and helps keep track of ownership much more effectively than existing systems can.

I think this got buried. Just wondering if anyone knows.

Does your team expect any major challenges ahead with keeping the roadmap on track?

Is there a working site where photographers are able to upload their photos now'? Thanks you for answer.
