Wemark is gonna shine for sure! The stock photography industry is one of the most centralized and there are no alternatives to Getty Images and Shutterstock. Wemark wish to get rid of all intermediaries by developing a decentralized market, while using blockchain technology. From what I understand, Wemark’s platform will connect potential buyers and photographers and allow them to negotiate directly, with no agencies involved. Photographers have no other choice than sharing high percentage of revenue with middlemen. The powerful agencies control distribution and hurt the ability of the artists to make a proper living. Photographers are being left behind, possessing only 15% of their work’s value and have no exclusivity on the creative side. By embracing blockchain technology and use platforms like Wemark’s, photographers would be able managing their own content by themselves, getting their fair share. The problem is serious, Wemark’s solution is excellent, they have a strong and experienced team and kick-ass website- my favorit https://tge.wemark.com/?utm_source=tge&utm_medium=youtube&utm_campaign=x |

The current royalties distribution system is outdated, with digital creators giving up their rights and receiving almost nothing for their creative work.
Wemark’s vision is to create a new direct relationship between those and their customers, ensuring prosperity to photographers and all involved.

Hello fellowship! Did anyone try Wemark yet?
Wemark claims they are here to replace the core responsibilities of the middlemen in stock-photo industry by performing direct transactions between photographers and their fans.
Wemark allegedly provides access to the digital content and distributes the revenue based on pre-set rules.
Is it working well? can blockchain contain it?

Since the major companies control the distribution, independent photographers are subject to their distributors system and payments.
The fees are the highest of all digital markets, up to 85% of sales, leaves photographers with more or less nothing.
Different companies like Wemark are trying to develop a new payment system and keep control of distribution,
is blockchain technology already ripe for these kind of projects?

Wemark wanna create a creator focused platform, enables photographers to license their digital content straight to buyers.
Wemark’s distributed marketplace is expected to keep control in the hands of the authors, and protects their copyrights.
Very promising project, an amazing website also.. are they the only ICO dealing with this specific field?

I read about the new platform they are trying to develop. From what I understand, potential buyers and photographers will be able to negotiate directly, with no agencies involved. As far as I know, the stock photography industry is one of the most centralized, there are no alternatives to Getty Images and Shutterstock. Wemark wishes to get rid of all intermediaries by developing a decentralized market, while using blockchain technology. Indeed sounds like a refreshing project, though still in its infancy and I need your advice..How serious you think this project is?

In my humble opinion, Wemark represents the future.
Technology is enabling new ways of distributing digital assets and Wemark aims to help photo artists generate income from their work and ultimately distribute it, by the great power of blockchain.
Their website is already on air and b-e-a-u-tiful!!
they have started making connections with hundreds of photo artists towards a historic change in stock photography industry.

The current distributing system is outdated and needs to be changed, creators are giving up their basic rights, receiving only symbolic compensation of their work’s value. Till now WeMark's mechanism seems to be the most applicable..
the practical ability of a project should not be underestimated considering so many failed ICOs out there..

Stock photography market is the most centralized that exist, agencies rule an enormous part of the industry and enjoying huge commissions. Those who don’t line up, are struggling behind and left alone in the battle. The fees charged for distribution are between the highest of all industries, up to 85% of sale price, which leaves photographers with only crumbs of the revenue.
Creating an equitable distribution system is what Wemark all about and I am waiting for some more projects to do the same..

Wemark is creating a blockchain based distribution system for stock photography, by detaching mediators and enabling photographers to upload their art directly to fans. They support photographers to keep control of their copyrights and protect their content. Has anyone tried it before?

Hey guys can anyone help me to confirm the lucrativity of this ICO..Wemark is an increasing community of self-contained photographers publishing their art straight to buyers , eliminates the need for agents. Their ultimate purpose is transforming the way content creators distribute their work and how they are rewarded. Their platform uses blockchain technology to create a relationship between photographers and users, providing security and transparency to transactions. Looks super legit.. any thought?

There have been lots of trials targeted to test blockchain solutions and find the best way for the technology in payments, trading, commerce and the matter of intellectual property. Sharing information and skills are none less important than sharing assets, Vanywhere has created a skill sharing app based on blockchain technology gives us the ability to directly connect with leaders in various fields getting their professional guidance, follow the principles of sharing economy. Seems like a promising idea!

Vanywhere developed a platform that rewards us for our skills. You can share it on a live video chat, voice chat or just by text, a real game changer in the info sharing world I think and sounds like a pretty good way to make some extra money. Did Anyone try it before? Can I earn some real money?

Creating an income from selling your photos is impossible without a significant change in the balance of power. The blockchain era is expected to provide us with new technologies that will help artists generate proper income, Photochain and Wemark are only two of many apps that are in the process of development. Developing those kind of platforms will make a desired change in the stock photo business, because it will give artists an opportunity to offer their work to potential buyers, finally getting their fair share of profit.
