Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) can help artists in a way by driving a change in how art is bought, sold, supported, enjoyed and created.

Today, social media platforms are a part of our everyday lives. We barely notice it, but millions of people around the world communicate, socialize, keep themselves updated with news, shop for products/services, and simply entertain themselves on social media. Every subject and trending issue can be seen on social media, and it is the fastest way to get the message out to a global audience. Online networks and user-generated content make up a considerable portion content on the Internet today. It is a platform for brands, creators, artists and any user to share their content and be heard. According to DataReportal, there are 4.33 billion social media users around the world at the start of 2021, equating to more than 55 percent of the total global population. Figures suggest that social media users equate to annualised growth of 13.7 percent, or an average 16½ new users every single second. A recent trending technology, NFT or Non-Fungible Tokens, has been the buzz and it is inevitable how this could eventually weave its way into social media, a phenomenon that has also intertwined with our daily lives in the last couple years. What is an NFT? An NFT (non-fungible digital token) is a token minted on blockchain technology that represents a unique asset and is not interchangeable. A blockchain is a distributed software network that functions both as a digital ledger and a mechanism enabling the secure transfer of assets without an intermediary. On the blockchain explorer, the history, owners and authenticity of each NFT can be verified. Read More: What is an NFT? Non-Fungible Tokens Explained An NFT can consist of an asset, say a piece of digital artwork, music or photo, plus a contract on blockchain asserting that the created piece of art is the original. NFTs are becoming more and more mainstream: collectors and artists have spent around $200 million on NFT-based artwork according to market tracker NonFungible.com compared to $250 million throughout all of 2020. NFTs have started to gain a broad attention as more celebrities get into the board. Elon Mask, Mark Cuban and Linkin Park guitarist Mike Shinoda started minting their own tokens. How Social Media Users Can Benefit from NFTs Monetization and Commodification of Digital Content NFTs give brands, marketers, influencers and any social media user the ability to create and monetize their content. Turning digital content on social media into NFTs allows an intangible artwork or photo to have tangible value by being tied to a crypto-based token, giving it accessibility and liquidity. Commodification is possible through the tokenization, by converting the physical or virtual content into digital units that can be bought and sold. As Oscar Wilde noted, all art is quite useless - the value of art is purely based on community-consensus and authenticity is valuable because it is scarce. Assigning a value to content through NFTs gives it that value. Earnings from Royalties Today, social media content producers pay out some of their profit to third-party intermediaries and platform fees. Blockchain-based social media platforms are disrupting this process by taking the middleman out and enabling content producers to have complete control over how and where their content is distributed and profit from the production of passive income. For artists and creators, being able to sell their work directly to a global buyer without going through an auction house or third party gives them a bigger portion of the profits they make from sales. Royalties can even be programmed into an NFT so that the creator receives a percentage of sale profits each time their work is sold to a new owner. Autonomy and Control In a decentralized social network, the community governs itself in the management of the platform and their content. Decentralized social networks give users more control and autonomy. Benefits include censorship resistance, ownership over personal data, and improved control over user-generated content. This means no one else, whether a corporation or site administrator, can make modifications to or remove content created by users. Ownership Protection From a copyright perspective, the content creator who took the photo on social media will continue to be the rightful owner, and maintain exclusive rights to control the use of the work. Social media users who post any form of content, from digital art to photos to music can go through a process of “minting” their own work, assigning it an NFT value and thus making it one-of-a-kind, where its originality can be verified through the NFT source code. This is a solution to a problem where on current social networks, content creators are facing a value-loss of their content caused by streaming and digital reproductive commodification. NFTs can authenticate a digital creation. The immutability of blockchain, preventing the digital file from being faked, forged, or replicated, is one of the main selling points of the technology. Who Benefits from NFT-based Social Media Platforms? Influencers Influencers play a vital role in the social media landscape, with millions of followers and the power to sway the next trend, brands are always looking to engage them. Through photos, clips and tweets, they are a marketing channel on their own, advertising and influencing the next big idea into the minds of their communities. In current social media platforms, influencers struggle to monetize their content if their post is not sponsored or an advertisement, which audiences are usually not very receptive to. NFT-based social networks allow influencers to build better connections with their audience in a peer-to-peer way, and deliver content that they are looking for. This new type of social media platforms will allow influencers to creatively respond to fan requests by converting memorable photos into digital collectibles that can be acquired by followers, forging a deeper, tangible connection in what was previously unattainable. Digital Artists Digital artists constantly face the problem of having their work stolen, copied and used without permission online. NFT-based social networks will work in their favour for copyrighting of their original work. Today, the art market remains a largely unregulated field. Collectors, auction houses and galleries who have access to information about who owns what artwork, its sale price, etc. profit from their position, while those with the least access to such information, artists are typically left at the mercy of third-party agents. NFT platforms will improve the ease of transferring digital creative assets, and information of authentication can be easily accessed on blockchain explorer. NFTs can be sold on any NFT marketplace or via a peer-to-peer method without the need for an intermediary, rather than being restricted to the use of third-party platforms to distribute content. This allows the artists to connect directly with the audiences. Artists can also retain ownership of their work forever by implementing royalties. In contrast from the traditional art world, where most artists get no money from the resale of their work, even when the value has doubled or tripled. Brands NFTs provide an exciting opportunity for the brands as well. They present opportunities for brand owners in both digital and physical markets as they have potential usefulness not only in association with digital images but also for physical products. With NFT-focused social media the brands can create unique brand experiences, increase brand awareness, encourage interaction as well as help to increase conversion and drive revenue. For example, the end-users of fashion brands can verify the information regarding the ownership of all the items and accessories which reduces the risks of frauds. Through NFT-based social networks the brands can create engaging digital art assets and give the ownership rights of these collectibles as part of promotional campaigns which will bring the customers closer to the brand and attract a new clientele. NFTs Will Continue to Disrupt Various Industries There is no doubt that NFTs will continue to disrupt multiple industries in one way or the other, social media is just one of them. Global companies are taking a serious look at NFT and blockchain technology to streamline many of their current business processes. However, the balance does seem to be shifting as NFT-based social platforms solving many of the issues traditional social networks have from the perspective of users as well as business. The relationship between social media, blockchain and NFTs will continue to evolve.

Broctagon participated in Labuan IBFC's CoDE Asia 2021 on Thursday, 21 October 2021. Growing into its third edition, CoDE Asia 2021 is themed "Future Forward: Next Gen Digital Ecosystems”. Representing Broctagon was Cecilia Chan, our Head of Liquidity (Asia) and Executive Director. With 22 years in the financial industry, Cecilia was the former Vice President at Singapore Exchange and a Senior Manager in Exchange & Regulatory relations at Hang Seng Indexes. On Recent Trends  Cecilia pointed out that within the digitalisation space, the most interesting aspect of digitalisation in recent times would be digital currencies issued by the central bank. As Decentralised Finance (DeFi) continues to grow, central banks want to be more involved in the process. Cecilia explained that we are more familiar with central bank money because it’s safe, liquid, and has integrity - given that context, central banks have to evolve to suit the digitalisation aspect of the economy. The Advantages of Digital Currencies  Cecilia shared that digital currency allows for better cross-border payments at a lower cost. This improves efficiency across borders, leading to faster settlements, making payment less of a hassle for retail and consumers.  The Future and the Now Cecelia expresses that here at Broctagon, we stay ahead of the game by trying to foresee what the market needs before the problem arises. As a tech solutions provider the specialises in Fintech, we are actuely aware of the issues that plague it, such as the problem of fragmented liquidity that the crypto market faces as a whole. Liquidity in crypto, for example, is concentrated in the top 3% of crypto exchanges, accounting for less than 25% of trading volume - not including the OTC desk and P2P aspects In light of this, we want to create awareness and inclusion of digital assets for mainstream adoption. AUM growth in crypto has tripled from 2020 to 2021, so we want to create solutions to cater to the institutional crowd and address liquidity as it continues to be a big problem in the institutional space.  Staying Relevant Cecilia explained that the beauty of DeFi is its ability to skip through all the intermediaries, allowing their users to go straight to the source without any intervention. Regulators know that DeFi will continue to evolve given this, and they are now starting to establish regulations in the DeFi space. As regulators, they are bound to keep in check investor and consumer interests and are unable to sit out this process as the welfare of their citizens are at stake.  While they explore this space, they are trying to navigate and create guidelines. Yet because the industry is so borderless, it is very difficult for them to work with one another. The lack of a single framework makes it more difficult for regulators to transverse the crypto landscape.
