Check out our new blog article here, featuring thoughts from one of our executive advisors David Schlesinger.

David is the former Editor-in-Chief of Reuters, and currently is the founder and MD of Tripod Advisors, a consultancy drawing on his decades of experience as a journalist and businessman in Greater China, the United States and Europe.

FIX WHAT’S BROKEN
By David Schlesinger

Everything in media seems broken.

Journalists feel they don’t get paid properly. Publishers see their business model crumbling around them. Advertisers pay for impact but don’t have much idea if they are making a difference with their dollars.
And the audience? They’re confused. They get lots for free; they create lots themselves, also for free; they hear the president of the United States tear down journalists and their work as “fake news” — so why should they pay for anything?

So what’s to be done?

Let’s fix it.

There needs to be a whole new relationship that puts audience, publishers, advertisers, journalists, content creators on a whole new footing. There needs to be trust — enforced with clear but lightweight contracts. There needs to be systems of payments that are easy and transparent. There needs to be a world where there are direct relationships where the middle men add value and don’t just get in the way. And there needs to be verifiable histories of how content got from the producer to the consumer and every publishing point in between…and then the tracks that bring all the micropayments back to the people who deserve them: those who create, those who add value, those who promote, those who cause transactions to happen.

Happily we are starting to see the beginnings of such a world.

Blockchain will allow the unlocking of tremendous value as it enables neutral, useful, helpful and transparent platforms.

Using Smart Contracts within blockchain, the creators of content — whether they be journalists, agencies, producers, photographers, videographers or artists — will set the terms of engagement. Who can use the content when? What’s the charge? Are there restrictions? Will the terms change over time?

The consumers of content — maybe publishers, perhaps even individuals — can then assemble the packages they want with the confidence that they know exactly what they are getting into and can control the dials based on their precise needs.
Advertisers benefit by knowing precisely when the content they are associated with is being used and in what way.

Knowledge is power. Knowledge is value.

But to get that knowledge you need both good technology and a good platform.

And that platform has to be frictionless and so easy as to be transparent.

Hubii has been building its vision on the basis of what it has learned from years of working with millions of users who have read news through its application and from years of working with publishers.

Fixing the problems we have means working well with all sides in the equation. It means imagining a new world.

It means creating a new dynamic, based on the simple proposition that content has value and that the value can be unlocked through direct, simple, technology-enabled contractual relationships between those who have and those who need.

Let’s fix what’s broken.

Let’s be clear about the rights for content. Let’s be clear about its value. Let’s make it easy to make tiny payments, and get those payments back to those who earned them. Let’s be metrics driven, but have those metrics be truly useful and representative.

And let’s forge a new community of creators, advertisers, publishers and audience on a neutral, frictionless, modern platform.

Fix what’s broken. Start afresh. Have a true marketplace set and realize value. And put control where it belongs: in the hands of content creators and users.

And what happens with the official site, Why is it not available. What actions are taken with him?

From their Slack channel:

"Dear all,

We received some worry about our web site being down when accessed at https://hubii.network. Because of preparations for the go live some required DNS updates last night made the site unavailable at the provided URL. It is however accessible at https://www.hubii.network and will shortly be available throughout the ordinary set of URLs."

Update:

Over the past week we have seen unprecedented and exponential growth in interest and a high number of direct requests made to the Hubii team.

Many of these requests have come from prominent parties in the existing content, rights and distribution industry as well as from significant new entrants to the new crypto and token economy, all trying to understand and assess how the future decentralised content industry could work and how the industry could participate at this stage. Some of the parties that have contacted Hubii may become crucial and defining both short and long term for realising Hubii Network's vision of becoming the leading marketplace for content on the internet - changing the fundamental dynamics of the value chain and its roles, making it more effective and transparent for creators, right holders, distributors, users and fans.

We have considered some of these discussions to have so high value that we decided to allow amble time to discuss and explore some of these promising partnerships. Hubii has therefore taken the decision to move the start of the tokensale to 24th August at 16:00 CET.

Please note that this change is not indicative that we may not carry out an ICO after all. Within the next 48 hours we will indicate when we will deploy the smart contract.

We thank the community for all the support it has given us so far and look forward to changing the content market and its industry with your help very soon.


Any exciting partnerships for content distribution?

And what about the bounty program, it still ends of Wednesday 16 August?

DEVs is ready to pay $ 100,000 to those authors who will post material on the Hubii Network platform and will receive the Pulitzer award.

Bravo! But hunting for possible pretenders to the Pulitzer prize is already in full swing. Through all possible channels. How to attract such a candidate to your network? You need some kind of  chips (attractive bonuses) which will attract quality content creators.

That is, not only author with Pulitzer prize will create an advertisement for the Hubii Network, but the promotion of the Hubii Network brand should attract content creators worthy of Pulitzer.

"We shall establish early dialog with blockchain-based storage companies such as Storj, Sia, Filecoin, Burst and Maidsafe to present and discuss our data volume requirements at each phase, for text, audio and video both from storage and streaming perspectives".

Are you already negotiating with the above teams for storing large amounts of data? Or will you do it after the ICO?

Update:

Due to the uncertainty surrounding Bitcoin at this time, namely USAF, Bitcoin Cash and the current SegWit signalling period which is due to end at around the time of our sale, we have taken the decision to delay our token sale by one week. The new time and date will be approximately 16:00 (CET) 17th August 2017. Note, the exact blocknumber will be revealed when the contract is deployed to the network.

Is fine. Passions for USAF, Bitcoin Cash, SegWit will settle down. And there will be more time to better demonstrate the project for potential investors.
