Hi everybody, we’re so glad to be here on Steemit! We want to help Steemians to make money from their photography - just like Steemit is rewarding users fairly for their content. Photochain is doing the same for photographers who want to sell their photography.
Photochain helps photographers make more money
Stock photography is one of the biggest ways for many photographers to sell their works. Unfortunately this is an industry that puts a lot of very heavy restrictions on their sellers. The worst of these is that content sellers are not able to set their own pricing AND then they are charged high fees on all works that are sold. On some of the major stock photography platforms this is as much as 77% per transaction.
Photochain is here to put an end to all that and bring back fairness and transparency in photography trading.
Photography contributors finally can take back control over their own photos - choosing their own pricing and license types. Transactions are executed immediately and directly peer-to-peer. This results in incredibly low fees charged to the contributors - they will receive up to 95% of the income generated by their works - and fair pricing, transparent and secure service for the buyers.
And you don’t need to understand blockchain at all to be able to take advantage of our service. With an internal fiat currency to our PHT token exchange, if you desire, you can set all your prices and receive payment in fiat currency. But you still get all the benefits of blockchain: speed, control, security etc.
In the words of CMO, Haris Rana:
“Photochain has been designed and developed completely with the users in mind. The platform has rebuilt the entire concept of a photostock from the ground up, leveraging the power of blockchain technology in every step of the process. This leads to a seamless buying and selling experience to all users, where they can feel comfortable that their best interests are put first.”
Copyright, security and speed - we've thought of everything
Photochain’s product doesn’t just stop at fees however - their innovative Digital Copyright Chain (DCC) solution, is also taking copyright protection to the blockchain. Each uploaded photo is permanently linked to the user who uploaded it. This link forever exists in the blockchain, through the DCC. This leaves a trail of ownership for every single photo that passes through the platform. Each uploaded image, by every photographer, is compared to the DCC for copyright infringement — automatically.
We want to serve all aspects of the photography selling process to ensure content creators like you are rewarded fairly for your hard work and unique creative skills. We and our professional community have the ambition to take 10% of the $4 billion annual revenue of the unjust stock photography industry - $400 million - and return this money to the photographers.
Our investors believe in us to achieve this - putting their money on us. A crypto fund has recently bought into Photochain, with a purchase of 25 million PHT - 13.9% of total funds available plus an option to acquire a further 4.6% of PHT tokens.

Sincerely,
CEO Stanislav Stolberg
