This series of words masquerading as sentence makes zero sense.
What would signing video prove? Who signs it? Who controls the signing keys? How would blockchain, in any form, help here, in any capacity whatsoever?
- anigbrowl 7y agoSigning video would prove it existed in that form at a particular time. Derivative instances could be linked back to the original. Every modification is like a transaction. You would always be able to follow a piece of media back to its original published source. Just imagine any given media stream as an edit decision list containing clips, each of which points back to an asset, each asset being a piece of video with a date of publication. The aset isn't a single entity in one place, it can be distributed via IPFS or whatever. The earliest known version of a thing is the canonical one for practical purposes. In this view blockchain isn't producing coins for hoarding, but tags for people to locate things on the public graph.
