Welcome my dear readers. Today I have prepared for you a review of a very interesting project.Wemark is a special platform that will be based on its own Protocol, thanks to which it will be possible to create a system where the content Creator publishes his works directly on the platform and the one who will be interested will be able to easily purchase it.
Problems of Internet creativity
Today, creativity is not only a letter of beautiful paintings on a large canvas and singing sonorous songs. Thanks to the Internet, you can Express yourself by recording various videos that will be of interest to the audience or create various images or illustrations, good, now there are many different programs that will help you in this. Even if the famous saying tells us " the artist should always be hungry”, we still will be realists and ask the following questions :
— How to engage in creativity, so much so that it brings you profit, or even become your main job?
You can create videos for such a well-known platform as YouTube and try to integrate advertising, for which you will receive money.
But if everything is clear with the video, what about the people who are engaged in creating images or photos?
Here already there are some problems. Let's define some of them.
Monetization of creativity. In order for Your creativity to bring you at least some profit, you need to monetize it. To do this, you need to look for a client who will be interested in purchasing Your work. It can be different studios or just a customer who needs images to design his website or project. Finding regular customers is not an easy task, so sometimes it requires an alternative solution. And here we come to the following problem:
Monopolists. As mentioned above, it is difficult to find customers. And here's why: many large companies are turning to services such as GettyImages and ShutterStock. They are the monopolists of the image and photo market. Other campaigns are not able to make them a proper competition, what can we say about the individual creators. Therefore, in order to somehow monetize their work, people have to cooperate with these “giants”, selling them their content. And here are the problems of such cooperation:
Price policy. By working with campaigns of this magnitude, your terms of cooperation will mean very little, or rather a little more than nothing. You have to accept the conditions that puts you a client (campaign), so You are literally in a hopeless position. The problem is that when it comes to price designations, they are leaning far from your favor.
No direct communication with the client. Cooperating with such campaigns, you completely lose direct contact with the client, which can sometimes be very necessary in the discussion of some issues. After all, the path of getting your content into the hands of the client looks SL. image:
You sell your work to a campaign-the client contacts the campaign-the client buys your work. At the same time, he will not even know who exactly is its author, because in fact he bought it from the campaign itself.
As Wemark solves these problems?
The solution to the problem of monetization of creativity. Since the platform will be fully decentralized, anyone who creates content will be able to easily publish their work on the platform and get paid for it.
Exclusion of monopolization. The platform will not act as an intermediary, but will only be an aggregator for communication between the Creator and the customers. Each user of the platform will work exclusively for themselves, so the platform will always be present competition.
Free pricing. The pricing of the content placed on the platform will work according to the market principle. That is, the user himself / herself sets the price for his / her content based on the average price of such content on the platform. However, the user can also bid well above average if he creates some exclusive content. In short: content creators decide for how much they will sell their work.
Direct communication with the client. So the user himself publishes the content on the platform, the customer who is interested in this content can directly contact its Creator to discuss some details or offer cooperation on special terms.
Features Of Wemark
The first features Wemark we took the decentralized nature of the platform. The platform's decentralization implies the use of blockchain technology and smart contracts, which allows to implement many useful functions.
The second feature in our list will be the loyalty of the platform to the authors. Here we will not describe anything, because this loyalty is formed from solving the problems listed above.
The internal currency will be the third feature of Wemark in our list, as the integration of its own currency will create an internal ecosystem and form an independent economy.
Security is one of the main features of the platform. I do not see any sense in enumerating why “security is cool”, but thanks to the use of blockchain, smart contracts and its own internal currency, all transactions on the platform will be completely safe.
Wemark Token. Application and functionality
As we have already described above, Wemark will release its own token, which will be the internal currency of the platform and will become the basis for creating its own economy. Let's take a look at how the token will be applied inside the platform.
Making payments. This token will serve as a means of making payments on the platform. Tokens will be stored on users ' wallets, and it will be possible to conduct a transaction quickly and safely.
Licensing. It may seem unusual for a token to be used in this way, but tokens are more than just a virtual currency that can be used to pay for certain services. With the help Of the wemark token, users will be licensed, both by the author of the content and by customers. If the author of the content receives tokens, it means that its content fully meets the requirements of the customer and the platform. The presence of tokens from the customer gives him the right to use the content.
It is also worth noting that the token can also be used outside the platform. For example, trade on the stock exchange or pay for the equipment that you need to create content, buy a camera or rent a Studio. These and many other features will be provided by the WMK token.
