I am a big believer in 'Ownership' of digital content. It seems silly that many individuals or small companies keep everything digital on a social platform. The platform has full control of the account, the posts inside, and could delete them at anytime thus eliminated the entire history of content that the individual has built.
Ownership should be paramount for a creator of any type, even digital, and it sucks having years worth of content suddenly be removed from a platform with no reason given. I could spread out my creations across multiple platforms but that doesn't solve the problem of it suddenly being removed from that platform with no warning.
there are personal websites and blogs that should be created instead to host such knowledge but hosting is often expensive.
The common process with online content is to upload it to a personal account/site and then slowly repost it to other platforms. This is still taught today but many are sleeping on the potential of Web 3 and how it utilizes the Blockchain to store data. Every 'article' or 'publication' can be traced to an origin account and thus ownership can be 'assured' in a manner. At least that is how I understand it. (If anybody would like to correct me I would appreciate it.)
So the concept I have been trying to understand is reversing the flow slightly. Beginning with a post on Web3/Blockchain and repurposing it towards Web2/social platforms and see how it turns out. I have been trying to share knowledge about creations on 'Blockchain' and how they could be utilized but I often run into the problems that the regular 'hype-people' have kicked up concerning 'Cryptocurrency' 'Blockchain' '10x-ing coins' and other dreck that turns many away from the idea of joining Web3/Blockchain.
So I will be 'Eating what I Serve' in a way and repurposing this post on my personal blog

And my Medium Account afterwards

I will edit them slightly so I don't get hit by accusations of 'Copy+Pasting' and of course link them back to this article for the original post.
I don't know why I am being driven to work on this Concept but it seems logical with how Technology, Industries, and the definition of Ownership & Assets are changing.
Good Luck Everyone!
