We’re excited to announce that NOIS, an NFT project on Solana, is the latest project to use Darkblock’s protocol to deliver exclusive content to its community in a Web3-native way.
NOIS is a platform that brings creators and music lovers together. Its roadmap calls for an upcoming PFP drop, the proceeds of which will fund the creation and distribution of music tracks, which will most likely also be minted on the Solana blockchain. It plans to initially use Darkblock’s protocol to deliver valuable content to its community by directly attaching it to their PFPs. The content it expects to attach may include music videos, behind-the-scenes footage, concept art, thank-you messages, and more.
Using Darkblock’s multichain protocol and free app, creators and NFT projects are able to encrypt multimedia content; permanently store it on Arweave’s decentralized content blockchain; and then immutably attach it to their NFTs. It’s what we call “decentralized unlockable content,” which means that not only is the encrypted content stored in a decentralized manner, but it is also unlockable by the NFTs’ owners anywhere that integrates the protocol. In NOIS’ case, holders will be able to unlock their NFTs’ exclusive content on the NOIS website, via Darkblock’s app, and on the Night Market marketplace once it launches. Darkblock is also working on a Chrome extension that will allow people to view and unlock their NFTs’ Darkblock content on Magic Eden.
NOIS plans to use Darkblock to not only offer added protection for its NFTs’ assets, but to also increase the value of its PFPs for its holders over time by turning them into tokenized containers for exclusive content. It plans to also use Darkblock to increase the utility of its future Music NFTs by attaching additional assets, whether music videos or the track’s stems to encourage remixing.
We look forward to working with NOIS team to explore how decentralized unlockable content can add value to a PFP project, and return value to its community.
About Darkblock
Darkblock, a web3 pioneer in decentralized content delivery and monetization, enables creators to control the distribution, accessibility, and monetization of their content without making it right-click-savable. By turning NFTs into tokenized vaults for digital content (e.g., music, videos, podcasts, films, comics, ebooks, 3D metaverse or gaming assets, or even HTML files), Darkblock provides the infrastructure creators need to harness the power of web3 technology, unlock new storytelling and community-building tools, explore new business models and ultimately build a new creator economy free from platform control.
