With the recent development in network technology over a few years, digital works can be easily published online. One of the main issues in the field of digital technology is the infringement of digital works, which can seriously damage the data owners’ rights and affects the enthusiasm of the owners to create original work. Thus, more attention is required for the protection of digital copyright as it has a great impact on the development of society. Many digital copyright protection techniques were developed in the past, but still, there are many loopholes in the protection systems to be covered. The protection means are still relatively weak, timeliness is poor, infringement is frequent, a right determination is cumbersome, and the results are not ideal. Aiming at the mentioned problems, this paper proposes a protection technique, which can realize the automatic management of the complete digital rights life cycle on the blockchain using fabric's smart contract technology. The proposed system is based on blockchain technology, which leverages the distributed, tamper-proof and traceable characteristics of blockchain. The system uses smart contracts to manage the full life cycle of digital copyright. The test results show that the proposed system provides effective protection of the digital copyright system and can efficiently confirm the rights of digital copyright.

“…In [31], the authors have designed smart contract-based digital license management system for 3D printing or additive manufacturing. To ease the problems of vulnerability and low traceability in traditional watermarkingbased intellectual property protection, a traceable copyright protection scheme has been proposed in [32], which is resistant to multiple embedding attacks. A quadratic matrix transformation model is adopted for watermarking in the blockchain environment, which transforms copyright information into several encrypted fragments to hide the real watermark positions.…”

Conventional copyright systems are governed nationally, and there is no global ledger to store copyright data. Because copyright laws differ across countries, it is difficult to provide cross-border copyright protection. The differences in national copyright laws, absence of a global copyright monitoring system with a central cloud that can store copyrighted content worldwide, and lack of transparency raise challenges in international copyright management. Copyright information is dispersed across various centralized databases, which are not incentivized to share. It is impossible to bring all centralized servers that store billions of copyright data under a synchronized platform. Due to the lack of a global copyright monitoring system through which people can investigate whether a work is copyrighted by searching copyright catalogs and records, copyrighted works are often downloaded from Google or social media unconsciously and shared with others freely, which may result in huge revenue losses to copyright holders.<div>In this paper, we propose a novel decentralized copyright system based on consortium blockchain, which ensures cross-border copyright protection of individuals’ digital content and solves existing challenges in international copyright management. The proposed system enables a synchronized platform to register and trade copyright globally without using a global cloud. Unlike conventional copyright systems, the proposed system does not require any centralized server to store copyrighted content. Instead, blockchain is used to store the metadata of copyrighted content. Individual countries receive membership from a copyright federation and participate in block creation by executing the energy-saving proof-of-authority consensus algorithm. These countries are regarded as the authorities of the platform and are responsible for proposing new blocks after validating transactions. Anyone, either registered or unregistered, can investigate a copyrighted work, but only registered users can make transactions. A token-based payment system is also proposed for paying copyright charges or transaction fees to the authorities through the federation. A prototype of the system was implemented, and its performance was evaluated. This paper provides direction and guidance towards international copyright management.</div>

“… Traceability: The traceability of blockchain means that transaction sources can be tracked through data storage structure and chain structure. L. Xiao et al designed a blockchain-based traceable IP copyright protection algorithm [27], X. Li et al researched critical technologies of the logistics information traceability model [28]. Blockchain can be classified into the public chain, alliance chain, and private chain.…”

As a decentralized distributed ledger, blockchain has developed rapidly since its birth and has been highly valued by governments, academia, and industry. Start in the financial field, blockchain technology has been rapidly applied to various fields such as the Internet of Things, supply chain, and healthcare. Blockchain technology has made sufficient development and innovation, but it also faces many challenges, such as security, scalability, and waste of resources. This paper starts with the development history of blockchain and combines the characteristics and technical principles of it to analyze the current academic research status and application scenarios. Meanwhile, this paper analyzes the existing outstanding blockchain projects and elaborates on their key advantages and current challenges. With discussing the ongoing development trend of blockchain, the development direction, and the research trend of blockchain in the future, this paper provides a useful reference for related research.
