Blockchain Media Token Issuance via Template Factory
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for issuing non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for media content data are time-consuming and prone to discrepancies between content creation and token issuance, leading to potential unauthorized reproduction or secondary uses due to the lack of real-time copyright registration on blockchain networks.
Innovation Solution
An apparatus and method that includes an application on a user terminal to generate media content data, receive a user contract template from a template factory server, add an electronic signature, and issue the media content token to a blockchain network in real-time, utilizing modules for media content generation, transaction processing, authentication, and network requests.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual procedures or third-party services are used to issue NFTs, then the complexity of smart contract implementation is reduced, but the issuance time increases significantly causing delays between content creation and token registration
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-generates contract templates that contain standardized smart contract code for NFT issuance. When content is created, the template is automatically instantiated with the specific content metadata, eliminating the need for manual smart contract writing and deployment. This preliminary preparation of contract structures enables rapid token issuance while maintaining security and standardization.
Solution Approach 2:
The NFT issuance process is automated through a self-service mechanism where the system automatically generates the media content token, attaches the electronic signature, and registers it on the blockchain without requiring manual intervention or third-party service involvement. The automated workflow includes content detection, template selection, token generation, and blockchain registration, all executed programmatically to reduce issuance time.
2Reliability
If real-time NFT issuance is implemented, then copyright registration immediacy is improved preventing unauthorized use, but the system complexity and automation requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-configures contract templates with all necessary smart contract logic and parameters for NFT issuance. These templates are prepared in advance and stored in a template factory, allowing the system to rapidly instantiate complete, ready-to-deploy contracts when content is created. This eliminates the complexity of real-time contract generation while achieving real-time issuance through template instantiation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system manages complexity by parameterizing the smart contract templates, where generic contract structures are defined once and then instantiated with specific parameters (content metadata, owner information, token properties) for each NFT issuance event. This parameterization approach allows the same template to handle diverse content types while maintaining consistent security and functionality, reducing overall system complexity.

AI summary
Provided are an apparatus and a method for providing a service of issuing a media content token based on a blockchain, wherein the apparatus includes: an application installed in a user terminal, and configured to generate media content data, receive a user contract template corresponding to the media content data from a template factory server, generate a media content token, add an electronic signature to the media content token, and issue the media content token to which the electronic signature is added, to a blockchain network; and the template factory server configured to generate the user contract template corresponding to the media content data on the basis of a pre-stored standard contract template.
