The blockchain network 300 can create an NFT, a non-fungible token, using minting data, and record the NFT in a node of the blockchain network. Since NFT is a non-fungible token, its owner and transaction details can be transparently recorded in the blockchain network 300. Accordingly, the user can prove to the public that he or she is the owner of the minted portion.

Additionally, in some embodiments, the blockchain network 300 may include a blockchain wallet 310, and the blockchain wallet 310 may be configured to correspond to each of a plurality of users. Each of the plurality of users may include a dedicated blockchain wallet 310. This blockchain wallet 310 may be a type of node that stores the user's NFT and records related information. A new NFT created when a user requests minting can be stored in a dedicated blockchain wallet 310 corresponding to the user. Through this, the user can hold an NFT corresponding to the content, and information related to the NFT minted by the user can be recorded in the blockchain wallet 310.

The blockchain network 300 can mint the first NFT through minting data. The first NFT is an NFT of the first content, and the blockchain network 300 can store the first NFT in the first user's blockchain wallet 310. Additionally, the blockchain network 300 may configure metadata of the first NFT based on minting data. Information related to the creation and use of the first NFT can be authenticated through blockchain technology that cannot be tampered with, and the owner of the first NFT is authenticated through blockchain technology.

In another example, the service server 400 may provide a game service to other users, and content may be an item available in the game service.

Here, at least some of the content provided by the service server 400 may be content provided by the content management server 200, and the content may be minted as an NFT on the blockchain network. In other words, the user who provides content on the service server 400 acquires the right to use the content minted as NFT on the blockchain network, receives it from the content management server 200, and provides it to the user of the service server 400. can do.

Users who provide content on the service server 400 can obtain permission to use minted content through the content management server 200, and the permission to use the service server 400 is recorded in the blockchain network 300. It can be managed. That is, as the usage rights of the service server 400 are recorded in the blockchain network 300, the service server 400 can also operate as a node of the blockchain network 300.

Figure 4 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a process in which a service server acquires the right to use the first content corresponding to the first NFT.

Referring to FIG. 4, the content management server 200 may receive a request for setting permissions for the first content. Here, the permission setting request means requesting permission to use the first content to be provided by the service server 400. The permission setting request may be provided from the user terminal 100 using the service environment of the content management server 200, but is not limited to this. In some embodiments, a permission setting request may be provided from the service server 400.

In an embodiment, the permission setting request may include content information to be distributed, service server information to be distributed, user information requesting distribution, and profit distribution information. Here, content information may mean a link to a content file or a location where the content is stored. Service server information may include information for specifying and identifying the service server from which content is provided and information about content providers who provide content to other users from the service server. The user information may include information about the user who transmitted the permission setting request and the user's account information. Revenue distribution information may include revenue distribution conditions (e.g., the rate at which revenue generated from a service server is distributed to the owner), revenue distribution criteria (costing based on time or costing per frequency), and revenue sharing cycle. there is. In an embodiment, the user of the user information and the content provider may be the same user, but are not limited to this.

In the example of FIG. 4, the user terminal 100 may be the first user terminal 100a, which is the owner of the first NFT. The first user terminal 100a sends a permission setting request to the content management server 200 to request permission to provide the first content to the service server 400 in order to distribute the first content to the service server 400. It can be delivered to . That is, the right to use the first content may include first content information, information about the service server 400, and first user information.

The content management server 200 may generate permission setting data for recording the use permission of the service server 400 for the first content in the first NFT. Permission setting data may refer to data required to set the use permission of the service server 400 for the first content in the blockchain network 300. In other words, permission setting data may mean a data format for inputting information included in a permission setting request into the blockchain network 300. Provisioning data may be configured based on a provisioning request. The content management server 200 may transmit the generated permission setting data to the blockchain network 300.

The blockchain network 300 may set the right to use the first content of the service server 400 based on the right setting data. Here, since the first content is minted with the first NFT, the right to use the first content can be managed by recording it in the first NFT. Additionally, the service server 400 is configured and operated as one node of the blockchain network 300. Accordingly, it may be possible for data exchange between the service server 400 and the blockchain network 300 to be performed.

The first NFT may record the right to use the first content of the service server 400. The fact that the service server 400 has permission to use the first content may also be reflected in the first NFT minting information. The first NFT minting information may be updated to record the point that service for the first content is permitted on a specific service server. Additionally, the content management server 200 registers the updated first NFT minting information on the service platform so that other users can check the contents.

Figure 5 exemplarily shows first NFT minting information to which service permission information for the first content is added.

Referring to FIG. 5, it can be seen that provision of content to the first service server is permitted, and permissions for the first service server and the second service server are registered in the service permission information. In addition, the first NFT minting information may provide detailed contract conditions of the service server permitted to be used, and may be configured to check the content use history of the service server permitted to be used. The contract details of the service server may include service server information, user information, and profit distribution information.

The content management server 200 may provide the first content to the service server 400 for which permissions have been set. The service server 400 may provide the first content provided by the content management server 200 to service users using the service server.

Figure 6 exemplarily shows the status provided from the service server to the service user.

Referring to FIG. 6, the service server 400 may provide first content to a plurality of service users 500. The content provision status of the service server 400 may be monitored by the content management server 200. Specifically, the content management server 200 can analyze various contents provided from various service servers and determine whether the contents have been distributed without permission. In other words, it is possible to determine whether the content is distributed without permission by determining whether the content output from a specific service server is similar to the content minted in the content management server 200.

Additionally, the service permission information recorded in the first NFT minting information can be standard information for determining whether or not the first content has been distributed without permission. Recording the right to use the service server 400 in the first NFT means that a formal license agreement is established between the first user of the first NFT and the service server 400. The service server 400 has formal license rights for the first content, and these license rights can be confirmed through the first NFT. The content management server 200 can identify officially licensed service servers and service servers that distribute content without permission based on the information recorded in the first NFT and the first NFT minting information. there is.

Additionally, the content management server 200 may configure the first content so that the first content includes a first identification code and provide it to the service server 400. The first identification code may provide a function such as a watermark. Referring to Figure 6, it can be confirmed through the first identification code displayed together with the first content that the first content is related to the first NFT.

Additionally, in some embodiments, the first identification code may be configured to connect to a first link providing first NFT minting information when identified through an optical sensor (eg, infrared sensor) of a specific wavelength. It is possible to convey to the service user 500 using the first content that the first content is related to the first NFT.

Additionally, in some embodiments, the first identification code may be configured to be included in the first content but processed so as not to be identified by the naked eye. In other words, a user using the service server 400 cannot visually identify the first identification code in the first content and does not experience any inconvenience in using the first content. In embodiments, the first identification code may be configured to be identified through an optical sensor of a specific wavelength (eg, an infrared sensor).

This first identification code may be included and processed when the first content is copied, converted, or modified. The first identification code may also be included in the first content copied and distributed without permission, and may support tracking and identification of the first content copied and distributed without permission. Through the first identification code, it may be easier for the content management server 200 to determine whether content provided by various service servers has been distributed without permission.

Figures 7 and 8 are example diagrams to explain the relationship between the service server and the blockchain network.

The service server 400 may function as one node constituting the blockchain network 300, and direct data exchange between the service server 400 and the blockchain network 300 may be possible.

Referring to Figure 7, the service server 400 may be configured to confirm the right to use the first content to the first NFT and provide the first content.

The service server 400 may be configured to confirm the right to use the first content to the first NFT and provide the first content to the service user 500. When the authority to use the service server 400 is confirmed, the first content may be configured to be output. If confirmation of usage authority is required, the service server 400 can confirm usage authority in the first NFT included in the blockchain network 300, and prepares to deliver the first content to the service user 500. can do.

In an embodiment, the service server 400 may be configured to check usage authority in response to executing the first content, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto. The usage right confirmed by the service server 400 from the first NFT may have a validity period, and during the validity period, the service server 400 can provide the first content without confirming the usage authority. Additionally, when the validity period expires, the service server 400 can update the validity period by confirming the right to use the first content with the first NFT.

Referring to Figure 8, the service server 400 may be configured to record the history of providing the first content to the service user 500 in the first NFT. In an embodiment, the service server 400 may identify the playback start time and playback end time of the first content provided to the service user 500, respectively, and block the playback start time and playback end time of the first content, respectively. It can be recorded in the chain network 300. The service server 400 can continue to record the use history of the first content in the first NFT in response to providing the first content to the service user 500. The usage history of the first content recorded in the first NFT may be stored in the content management server 200 as first NFT minting information.

Here, the service server 400 can receive the first content for which usage rights have been obtained from the content management server 200 and provide it to the service user 500, and revenue will be generated as the first content is provided to the user. You can. Here, the revenue may be a usage fee paid by the service user 500 to the service server 400, but is not limited to this. The revenue may be the advertising cost of the advertising video that the service user 500 watches while using the first content. In an embodiment, the content management server 200 may distribute revenue generated according to the first content to the first user who is the owner of the content, based on information recorded in the first NFT.

Figure 9 is an example diagram to explain a process in which revenue according to the first content is distributed to the first user.

Referring to Figure 9, the content management server 200 can check the use history of the first content recorded in the first NFT. The content management server 200 may calculate the first profit related to the first content based on the playback start time and playback end time of the first content recorded in the first NFT.

In some embodiments, the information recorded in the first NFT may be provided as first NFT minting information, and the content management server 200 may check the usage history of the first content through the first NFT minting information.

The content management server 200 may check at least one of the number of times the first content has been provided and the time at which the first content has been provided, from the usage history of the first content.

In an embodiment, the content management server 200 may provide a user environment for minting a new NFT using at least one NFT. In other words, it is possible to provide a user environment for creating new content using content corresponding to a pre-minted NFT and newly minting the corresponding NFT. As an example, the user environment may provide the user with a service for minting a new NFT through synthesis of the second NFT and the third NFT. This newly created NFT is created by accepting the terms of use of the pre-minted NFT, and forms a contractual relationship with the pre-minted NFT.

The first NFT in FIG. 10 may be an NFT obtained by minting an animation created using the character of the second NFT and the character of the third NFT. The first NFT may be minted with an animation composed of two characters as the main characters as the first content. Here, the first NFT corresponds to a state created by satisfying the conditions of use of the second NFT and the use conditions of the third NFT, respectively. Therefore, the first NFT can form a contractual relationship with each of the second NFT and third NFT, and the terms of use of the second NFT and the terms of use of the third NFT can be confirmed through the contract information of the first NFT minting information. . Contract information may include second NFT contract information and third NFT contract information. From the second NFT contract information, you can see that the second NFT includes a running royalty that will be received at 10% of sales. From the third NFT contract information, it can be seen that the third NFT does not include a separate running royalty. In an embodiment, the content management server 200 may distribute revenue according to the first content corresponding to the first NFT by further considering contract information of the first NFT.

Referring to Figure 11, the content management server 200 can check the use history of the first content recorded in the first NFT. In some embodiments, the information recorded in the first NFT may be provided as first NFT minting information, and the content management server 200 may check the usage history of the first content through the first NFT minting information.

The content management server 200 may check at least one of the number of times the first content has been provided and the time at which the first content has been provided, from the usage history of the first content. The content management server 200 may determine the first profit provided to the first user by considering the first content usage history and the detailed contract conditions of the service server included in the first NFT minting information. The content management server 200 may determine the first profit provided to the first user by considering the first content usage history and profit distribution information.

In addition, the content management server 200 considers the first revenue, the second NFT contract information, and the third NFT contract information to determine the second revenue provided to the second user and the third revenue and first revenue provided to the third user. It is possible to determine the first final profit by subtracting the second profit and the third profit.

In the second NFT contract information of FIG. 10, it can be seen that the second NFT includes a running royalty of 10% of sales. From the third NFT contract information, it can be seen that the third NFT does not include a separate running royalty. Accordingly, the third profit provided to the third user is not generated, but the second profit provided to the second user is generated. That is, the content management server 200 sets 10% of the first profit as the second profit. The first final revenue is 90% of the first revenue, and the second revenue is 10% of the first revenue, and may be provided to the first user and the second user, respectively.
