Dual-Ledger NFT Control for Content Suitability and Distribution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems face challenges in effectively collecting and managing digital content from users while ensuring that only suitable content for distribution is registered in distributed ledger systems, balancing user contribution with the risk of unsuitable content registration.
Innovation Solution
A control method involving a control device that separates digital content management into two distinct distributed ledger systems, using a first system for content collection and a second for distribution, with non-fungible tokens (NFTs) recorded and generated across these systems to manage content suitability and remuneration.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If digital content is collected from users and registered in a distributed ledger system, then content collection capability is improved, but the risk of unsuitable content registration increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the distributed ledger system into two separate systems: a first distributed ledger system for collecting and registering user-generated digital content, and a second distributed ledger system for managing and distributing selected content. This segmentation allows the first system to operate with high productivity for content collection while the second system ensures reliability through selective content distribution, thus resolving the contradiction between content collection capability and content suitability.
2Device complexity
If a single distributed ledger system is used for both content collection and distribution, then system complexity is reduced, but communication and data processing loads increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the monolithic distributed ledger system into two specialized systems: a first distributed ledger system optimized for content collection with lower data processing requirements, and a second distributed ledger system optimized for content distribution with enhanced security and validation capabilities. This segmentation reduces the communication and data processing loads on any single system while maintaining overall system functionality, thus resolving the contradiction between system structure simplicity and operational efficiency.
3Quantity of substance
If all user-generated content is registered in the distributed ledger system, then content collection completeness is improved, but data processing load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential content information (metadata, hashes, and reference data) to the first distributed ledger system for registration, while the actual digital content files are stored off-chain or in decentralized storage solutions. This extraction approach allows complete content registration in terms of tracking and management without proportionally increasing the data processing load on the ledger system, thus resolving the contradiction between content registration volume and data processing load.

AI summary
A control method is a control method to be performed by a control device and includes: obtaining content information related to digital content created by a user; recording, into a first distributed ledger system, a first non-fungible token (NFT) corresponding to the content information; generating a second NFT for distribution that corresponds to the content information; and recording the generated second NFT into a second distributed ledger system different from the first distributed ledger system.
