THANK YOU TO ALL!
Zeppelin Solutions Hubii Smart Token Audit can be found here.
Hubii's mission is to create the new leading Ethereum-based decentralised content marketplace where creators and rightsholders can meet distribution networks and reach content buyers directly, all while having total confidence in maintaining the integrity of their rights through the use of smart contracts.
Making use of smart contracts will allow Hubii Network to fix fundamental points in the content industry and apply mechanisms never seen before in the market. All this will be delivered whilst having full transparency, accountability and security over the transactions using a new cryptocurrency, Hubiits (HBT).
The goal is for the entire Hubii Network to be open source and decentralised in nature.
Kickstarting and catalysing this marketplace is Hubii's existing distribution network reaching out to over 50 million people daily. Hubii also has latent agreements on distribution partnerships which can reach up to 800M users.
Key Platform Features
- Content agnostic; will support text, still images, audio and video.
- Backed by leading VCs and industry influencers from the news, music and video space.
- Two sided marketplace dynamics. Catalysed buyer-side liquidity in the new Hubii Network by injecting Hubii's existing content distribution network.
- Digital Rights Management (optional), content ingestion and distribution.
- Open Source platform, secured by Ethereum's protocol.
- Existing business with global partnerships reaching to 50M users daily.
- ERC20 Token, HBT, a token with multiple platform utilities.
HBT Token Utility
- Removing exchange rate risk; Market for hedging and providing futures contracts to provide stable currencies. Stakers will effectively be able to earn an interest rate for their liquidity provision.
- Verification of content rights in Hubii smart contracts; Incentivised verification of intellectual property rights by token holder staking their tokens.
- Transparency; The native currency creates ability to provide participants total transparency of content analytics.
Content Creators' Existing Pain Points and the Hubii Network Solutions
- Content creators often do not get sufficiently rewarded for their work. : Using smart contracts they can decide how much they want for their content.
- Once content is distributed and published creators often lose control over their work. : Hubii Network provides full accountability and control over the content's lifetime.
- Dealing with many distributors adds complexity to the content sale process. : Hubii Network is a one-stop shop to hundreds of distributors and millions of users.
- Creators have a lack of insight into the consumer's interactions with their content. : Consumer profiling and forecasting tools will be provided to content creators.
