Abstract
Systems and methods for using a blockchain to share secondary content across multiple platforms are provided. A first platform receives content, such as an image or video. A content identifier is generated for the content. The first platform also receives secondary content, such as comments and reactions for the content. The content identifier is used to select a blockchain that stores the secondary content received by the first platform. When the content is shared with the second platform, the content identifier is shared with the content. The second platform uses the content identifier to retrieve secondary content associated with the content from the blockchain.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a non-transitory memory storing instructions;
- and
- one or more hardware processors coupled to the non-transitory memory and configured to read the instructions from the non-transitory memory to cause the system to perform operations comprising:
- receiving content from a first platform;
- generating a content identifier for the content;
- receiving secondary content from the first platform, wherein the secondary content is associated with the content;
- storing the secondary content with the content identifier on a blockchain, wherein the blockchain is associated with the content;
- and
- allowing access to the content through the blockchain by a second platform.
A system comprising:
- a non-transitory memory storing instructions;
- and
- one or more hardware processors coupled to the non-transitory memory and configured to read the instructions from the non-transitory memory to cause the system to perform operations comprising:
- receiving an indication from a first platform to access secondary content associated with content included on a second platform;
- determining a content identifier associated with the content and the secondary content;
- accessing, based on the content identifier, the secondary content from a blockchain;
- and
- transferring the secondary content stored in the blockchain to the first platform.
A method comprising:
- receiving content on a first platform from a computing device;
- issuing a request to generate a content identifier for the content;
- in response to the request, receiving the content identifier;
- receiving secondary content from a plurality of computing devices, wherein the plurality of computing devices includes the computing device;
- transmitting the secondary content and the content identifier to a blockchain, wherein the secondary content comprises secondary content from the first platform and secondary content from a second platform;
- retrieving the secondary content from the second platform from a blockchain;
- and
- displaying, using the first platform, the secondary content from the first platform and the secondary content from the second platform.
