Copyright Protection, Smart Contracts, Digital Scarcity, And NFTs. Blockchain For Publishing

Blockchain technology offers exciting opportunities for authors and the publishing industry.

In this interview, Simon-Pierre Marion and I discuss copyright protection, smart contracts, estate management and faster, more transparent payments, as well as how digital scarcity could expand the revenue potential in the digital supply chain. Plus, I add some extra commentary on NFTs since they are in the news a lot at the moment.
