An online marketplace for pictures, illustrations and artwork while providing proof of authorship

Birdlance has the ambition to become one of the best online marketplaces for pictures, illustrations and artwork while also protecting the intellectual property of Photographers and Graphic Designers by being able to prove authorship and report copyright infringement of any kind by using:

Blockchain technology

The immutable property of a Blockchain for proof of authorship

Computer Vision

Various state of the art computer vision, image recognition and image similarity techniques are applied to detect authenticity and modifications

Reporting of unsolicited usage

Unsolicited usage of a photograph in either its original as in its edited form can be detected by Birdlance and will be reported to the original author of the content

Birdlance Blockchain

Birdlance runs its own Proof Of Stake Blockchain (based on NXT).
Our utility coin (BLNC) can be used for buying and selling photographs on the platform and buying various Birdlance services. In the same way, many people are using cryptocurrencies to buy goods and services online. In fact, to make money with cryptocurrency, more people are turning to cryptocurrency trading. To help these people now there are several automated platforms available. One of the most popular is Anon System. If you are considering investing in this platform, then try visiting anon system coincierge.de to learn more about it.
Since the Birdlance Blockchain doesn't require any mining but rewards are gained by staking, it is a lot more energy efficient and green than any other Proof Of Work Blockchain.
