The blockchain technology enables seamless transactions using a decentralized and shared distributed ledger for transactions between parties. The data contained in the blocks is cryptographically hashed with a complex algorithm which makes it immutable, i.e., it cannot be altered or deleted. ‘Blockchain in media, advertising and entertainment’ refers to the application of blockchain technology in licensing and rights management, digital advertising, smart contracts, content security, online gaming, payments, and many others. The technology assists in addressing challenges associated with piracy of data and digital ad frauds during the digital distribution mechanism. The aim of blockchain in media, advertising, and entertainment vertical is to minimize the impact of ‘middleman’ in advertising, distribution, and content creation.
