The deployed contract stores Metadata, ownership, sub-license information, permissions. The creator of the contract can also create and mint ERC20 token instances for sub-licensing the **Base IP**. -### Sub licensing the Base IP +## Sub licensing the Base IP ERC721 tokens are non-fungible, thus cannot be used for automatic price discovery like ERC20 tokens. ERC721 and ERC20 combined together can be used for sub-licensing. Ocean Protocol's [ERC721Template](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/contracts/blob/v4main/contracts/templates/ERC721Template.sol) solves this problem by using ERC721 for tokenizing the **Base IP** and tokenizing sub-licenses by using ERC20. Thus, sub-licenses can be traded on any AMM as the underlying contract is ERC20 compliant. -### Use case +## Use case Alice is the author of a book. Alice wants to hold the copyright of her work but, allows others to read her book. So, She creates 2 versions of her book namely: digital copy, physical copy. She assigns Bob as one of the holder of digital edition of the book. Here, **Base IP** is the book. **Base IP holder** is Alice and Bob is **Sub-licensee** for a digital edition of the book. Alice tokenizes her work by performing **Publish** action i.e _ERC721.safeMint(to=aliceWalletAddress, tokenid=1)_. Alice also creates sub-licenses of her book by creating two ERC20 tokens and transefers the digital copy token to Bob's wallet. ![Image 1](images/v4-nft-1.PNG) -### Other References +## Other References - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-fungible_token - https://blog.oceanprotocol.com/nfts-ip-1-practical-connections-of-erc721-with-intellectual-property-dc216aaf005d diff --git a/content/concepts/v4-roles.md b/content/concepts/v4-roles.md index ee73a683..dfe547cb 100644 --- a/content/concepts/v4-roles.md +++ b/content/concepts/v4-roles.md @@ -1,11 +1,16 @@ -### Roles +--- +title: v4 roles and permissions +description: The page describes the roles and permissions present in ERC721Template contract. +--- + +## Roles [ERC721Template](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/contracts/blob/v4Hardhat/contracts/templates/ERC721Template.sol) contract defines following roles: - NFT Owner - Manager -#### NFT Owner +## NFT Owner - NFT Owner is the publisher.
