I don't know the value in a decentralized IP rights system. If the key holder gets phished, you can lose your rights to a TV series you've been working on. (Like Seth Greene)

He wouldn't have lost it and had to pay back the ransom in a traditional contract. Having a contract centralized and enforced by the legal system has many perks and I can't ever see how a decentralized rights platform can enforce itself.
