Proposal Details
Web3 is powering a complete reinvention of publishing: it will enable authors to monetize their work directly with investors and fans. Like a 21st century living copyright, Slush’s blockchain-driven platform not only lets writers establish digital ownership, but gives them a world of new ‘smart rights’ to flexibly distribute, derive, expand, license and profit from their work.
Slush is developing the go-to platform for authors to easily authenticate, configure and distribute original writing as an NFT. We make IP ownership faster, cheaper and more flexible, and grow the size of the publishing pie by unlocking innovation around how works are licensed, remixed, shared and sold.
Slush’s cofounders have unique insights into both publishing and smart contract development: Geoff is a Techstars alum and led growth at crowdsourced publishing platform Inkshares, while Kyle is a software engineer at The Ethereum Foundation and has authored many smart contracts and his own blockchain.
