Digital media is riddled with shortcomings such as stolen images, no ownership, no fair rewards, no credits, etc. that makes the internet an unsafe place for photographers and digital artists. While over 3 Billion images are shared every day on the internet, 90% of them are stolen or shared without permission.

Picnab aims to solve this problem by creating an NFT stock image marketplace where creators can securely upload and sell their work. When an image is uploaded on Picnab by a creator, it is assigned an NFT with its ownership and other details. As NFTs are immutable, these details cannot be edited even if the NFT is sold.

As Picnab is a stock image platform, users can download copies of the original image for free. These copies will be credited to the creator and will not harm the image’s value. Also, on every download, the creators will receive a PIC token (reward token by PIC) for their contribution. Using these mechanisms, Picnab ensures that creators and artists can both benefit from the platform without harming the integrity of an artist.

Among several features, Picnab offers,

• A global platform where our users can download copies of the original photos for free and use them anywhere they want. The image owner will be rewarded with a PIC token for every download.

• A global platform where photographers and artists can showcase and sell their photos and artworks as NFTs to a large audience of collectors .

• We assign every photo and artwork with an NFT that makes the ownership and copyright immutable.

The best part of it - The photographer/artist remains the rightful owner!

While there are several stock image platforms on the internet, none of them uses blockchain to secure the images. Most of these platforms provide unrestricted use of original artwork without helping the creators. Unlike Picnab, these platforms do not create a harmonious beneficial platform for both users and creators.

Few stock platforms that utilize blockchain do not focus on photographers and their problems. These platforms majorly deal with 3D objects or digital art instead of photographs. Picnab is a unique blockchain disruptive platform that provides photographers with a safe and secure space to experiment and grow.
