The copyright holder’s given nodes and iQIYI’s private consortium chain serve as the platform for the smart contracts.

DeBond developed the smart contract standard known as ERC-3475. According to Yu Liu, a co-founder of DeBond, it was initially intended to enable issuers to manage numerous bonds of various classifications, interest rates, and redemption conditions under a single smart contract. Bonds are a type of debt instrument that stand in for loans given to the issuer.

As the platform discovered 270,000 videos that were copied from the platform’s popular drama “My Heroic Husband” in 2021, iQIYI CEO Gong Yu stated he planned to crack down on plagiarism of the company’s original TV series in November.

A copyright blockchain that enables users to upload movies for copyright confirmation was introduced by iQIYI in 2019.
