Darkblock is a creative decentralized protocol that gives content creators greater control over the distribution and monetization of their products. In short, the Darkblock application allows creators to encrypt and control access to their content via NFTs. A Darkblock functions as an unlockable piece of content that is stored on Arweave. The protocol will also facilitate Darkblock rentals, meaning that users will be able to rent access to the encrypted content for a short period of time. Darkblock is a chain-agnostic technology, allowing its functions to be deployed on any chain.
