This is why I am still exited about Bitcoin and the blockchain. Every transaction I make leave a small fingerprint of my existance on the Blockchain. Long after I am gone, people would still be able to track my digital footprints.  ;D
22HERTS claim to also be the first band, who sold their album for Bitcoin. <Popular believe, says it was 50cent>

I like the idea, and many struggling artist would agree, not to pay $50 to a copyright service to recieve a little certificate with no value. The Blockchain does this virtually for free. In the example above, they used 0.0001 to do the same thing. At today's value =  US $ 0.02343. What service would you use?

Not exactly sure how it works in other places, but in the usa you don't have to get a special copyright certificate or anything.  Not really sure what the point of this would be unless you need to apply for copyright in other countries.
