DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

[0074] The following is a description of one or more exemplary embodiments of the present invention. POPOLOGY is a digital platform for media rights, intellectual property rights, payments and indexing. Unlike other Social Media platforms, POPOLOGY is designed to reward curators and creators of media content.

[0075] To do this, POPOLOGY Networks indexes and computes key metrics designed to measure true popular. These key metrics trace the foundations of democracy, following the ideas that percolate, by and for the people. This index is tabulated using the world's most powerful blockchain technology, to create a shared, secure ledger. This is served to everyone using a POPOLOGY web-based app.

[0076] Using the POPOLOGY blockchain ledger, the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) can be automatically tallied and securely shared. These KPIs can be used to create digital tokens and coins on the POPOLOGY blockchain ledger. The value of these digital tokens and coins will be backed by the media network's ad revenues and trade velocity. This allows POPOLOGY networks to share ad revenue with the artists, players and curators, in exchange for KPIs.

[0077] POPOLOGY Networks minted 2 digital currencies: POPtoken and POPOLOGY coin. POPtoken can be used with the Prize Wall, a collection of promoted items that can be delivered directly to the consumer. For tax compliance reasons, POPtoken cannot be directly exchanged for fiat currency, like the US dollar.

[0078] POPtoken can be exchanged for POPOLOGYcoin. POPOLOGY coin can be used with the Store Front, a collection of premium promoted items and tickets for live experiences. These items have a value in US dollars, and POPOLOGYcoin exchanges may be subject to gift tax. Unlike POPtoken, POPOLOGYcoin can be exchanged for fiat currency, like the US dollar. This will put POPOLOGYcoin in the same fiat exchange as other crypto to spend on retail sites like Amazon and/or in connection with credit card rewards.

[0079] A curator can earn POPtoken by curating content into a POPcast. Simply create a playlist, add brands for POPmercial ad spots, and share with players. When players consume the content and view the POPmercial ad spots, audience POPtoken are distributed to the player, the curator, and the copyright holder.

[0080] A curator can earn more POPtoken by predicting the future of popularity of respective videos selected in their POPcast. Wager your POPtoken in Futures in Popular. If your predicted view count is reached before the prediction time limit, you win POPtoken!

[0081] A prospector can earn POPtoken by predicting the popularity of a piece of media. Simply select a piece of media already chosen in your POPcast, see the historical view counts, and make a prediction. Wager your POPtoken in Futures in Popular. If the predicted view count is reached before the prediction time limit, you win up to 20 POPtoken!

[0082] A curator can receive rewards from sponsors with their POPcast Sponsor Wall. The top contributing sponsor appears at the top of the Sponsor Wall. Each sponsor's contribution of US dollars is exchanged for a verified spot in the blockchain ledger, known as an NFT (Non-Fungible Token).

[0083] This POPtoken goes into the POPcast curator's digital wallet.

In exchange, the list of NFT sponsors appears on the Sponsor wall for the POPcast. This kind of entry in the POPOLOGY blockchain ledger showcases the power of smart contracts and digital micro-licenses.

[0084] Only an NFT Sponsor gets the option to purchase the creation an officially licensed, limited edition trading card. This trading card has the cover art of their sponsored POPcast. It also contains a Bluetooth App Clip sticker as proof of authenticity. Scan the sticker with your phone and see the NFT Sponsor Wall. In this shared secure ledger, you can see when the Collectible Trading Card was commissioned, who commissioned it to be made, and the total number of officially licensed cards like this one. These large cards are 5.633.31 in size and look great on a table or shelf of collectibles. Extra-Large cards are 2436 in size, look great on an award wall, accent table or hallway. The proceeds from these Collected Trading Cards go to the curator of the POPcast. An optional acrylic display case makes a great addition, to showcase your support for the arts.

[0085] Looking for a rare limited edition 12 Vinyl LP to showcase? An NFT Sponsor gets the exclusive option to purchase the creation of an officially licensed, limited edition Vinyl Record of the POPcast. This Vinyl record has the cover art of their sponsored POPcast. The sleeve notes include the artists and track information. The record sleeve itself contains a Bluetooth App Clip sticker as proof of authenticity. Scan the sticker with your phone and see the NFT Sponsor Wall. In this shared secure ledger, you can see when the Collectible Vinyl Record was commissioned, who commissioned it to be made, and the total number of officially licensed Vinyl Records like this one. An optional acrylic display case makes a beautiful addition to your shelf of collectibles. Showcase your support for the arts. The music royalties for each track, and the curator's royalties are all entries in the POPOLOGY blockchain ledger. What used to be an impractical hassle of phone calls and paper contracts, can now be accomplished with a modern digital smart contract for micro-licensed content. All micro-payments in royalties paid. That's the power of the POPOLOGY blockchain ledger.

[0086] Are you a popular curator? The most popular curators will get noticed by brands. These brands can interact with these curators using POPOLOGY Networks.

[0087] Want the curator to like your product? Send them a promotional gift!

Curators have the power to select which brands are included in their POPcast POPmercial ad gallery of spots. This connection is how your brand can reach audiences in a real authentic way.

[0088] Join the Sponsor Wall. Want a curator to take notice? Send them a payment of gratitude. The top sponsor of a POPcast is seen by the Players and the Curator POPOLOGIST.

[0089] Commission Collectibles. As a member of the Sponsor Wall, you can purchase officially licensed and verified collectible Trading Cards and Vinyl Records. Fit in museum-quality displays, with a digital certificate of authenticity, verified with a special sticker and the POPOLOGY blockchain ledger.

[0090] POPOLOGIST Spotlight. Assemble your crew of popular curators. Put them in the POPOLOGIST Spotlight. These promoted crews of popularity ambassadors help you reach your targeted audience in an authentic way. Percolate fresh thinking with POPOLOGIST talent.

[0091] Brand Ambassador Collaborations. Bring your brightest curators into your marketing meetings.

The talent will also receive this year's prize package. Includes a year of grant funds and artist residency.

Disruptive Characteristics

[0094] Ability to curate your own meta-search engine formula for video and photo content. We enable a user to populate over 2400 video/image stories per pages (in the round) for any search topic from minimum 3 to maximum 25 user platforms selected (aggregated) by the user. The POPsphere automating a unique configuration of trusted search engines and/or social platforms as an immersive content browser. User is able to pre-select and cluster individual data pools into color coded tile continents facilitating a unique attribute of search criteria. Which allows a user to control the unique attributes of information. This ostensibly defines and limits misinformation campaigns via sheer volume of aggregation, and levels the playing field of competitive landscape platforms.

[0095] Customizable aggregation of search engine results through permitting users to select their preferred search algorithm, which activates the IConfiguration as an interface for Net Core 2.0. The [Configuration interface is injected as dependency in the Controller and then later used throughout the Controller. The IConfiguration interface is used to read Settings and Connection Strings from App Settings into json file. Now when a user with bundled API algorithms is selecting originative content, they are additionally generating a completely unique one-of-a-kind algorithm. Potential arises for curating one's own multimedia content based on each individual's specific selected interests, creating a unique experience of content discovery and consumption through the special design of the Application Environment/

[0096] UI/UX, consisting of a 360 scrollable spherical area lined with 2400 rectangular content windows gathering results from 3 to 25 user selected platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Daily Motion, Vimeo, Youtube, TikTok, and Google etc, named the POPsphere. The size of the content roster presented at-a-glance permits cross-checking of contrasting content, encouraging objective assessments, and diminishing efficiency of mis-information campaigns, as well as entirely eliminating the echo-chamber effect.

[0097] POPOLOGY user assembles a POPcast which allows our users to now place numerous of their favorite choices in sponsored brand ads (POPmercial) into their curated media stream, which facilitates automated brand retention and relevance statistics as required gamification of this platform, and rewards the viewing audience with POPtoken.

A user-oriented income generation mechanism is developed by the introduction within the POPcast as a section of the application where users can watch and place commercials (POPmercial) at will, in the interest of being paid a portion of the cost of advertising in the form of POPtoken. This introduces extensive gamification, customizable data retention and processing that targets commercials based on user-defined interests for brands where interest is already present, in addition to the seamless integration within the consumed curated content collection.

[0098] Unique Stake and Mining premise that collects data of true popular metrics and enables proof of work for mining in app tokens to prospect correct audience views in a selected duration of time wagered. We can attribute an energy saving green premise with our stake and mining process due to the lack of high-volume energy consumption replaced with the VIEWS counter of each platform aggregated that satisfies the needed quantum math required for Proof of work. The missing numbers in this blockchain node requirement are the Future views number and duration of time selected to stake (or proof of work) against. We call this Futures In Popular', and is truly innovative as a formula for mining our POPtoken. The Stake and Green Mining premise introduces additional rewards through collection of data on the subject of true popular metrics. This enables a unique implementation of proof-of-work (a form of cryptographic proof in which one party proves to others that a certain amount of a specific computational effort has been expended), and a novel mechanic for mining in app tokens while assuring value creation through user-provided weightings. A wagering mechanism is introduced to expand the active earning potential on the basis of predicting future video views on a user-defined time frame and with a user-selecting staking amount. An essential target achieved by the aforementioned mechanics assures a green implementation, devoid of large computational need or energy consumption. The uniquely accessible value of the VIEWS counter participates in the crypto-graphical block generation through as a unique seed contributing as a nonce to the algorithm for consensus generation.

The media player may apply WebGL, AEP extension that opens WebGL capabilities. (An AEP file is a video project created by Adobe After Effects, a special effects video editing application. It contains one or more compositions, which are a collection of layers that may include video footage, audio tracks, images, text, and shapes that make up special effects.) Audience may redeem the automated watch code at the end of the POPcast stream (FIG. 27A, 27b) which is redeemable only at Wwww.popology.app.

[0147] User may visit the POPlounge dashboard to watch other POPcast content (FIG. 26A, 26b) of his peers for rewards, or watch his NETFLIX, HULU or other VOD content service for data rewards. User may also watch television (26d) from any of their trusted providers through the POPlounge for added data rewards credits. User can also access the POPOLOGY Megaverse 3d Metaverse portal from here as well and tour the landscapes with their 3d Avatar (FIG. 15A).

[0148] POPwallet is the digital wallet control for POPtoken and Premium POPOLOGYcoin. (FIG. 20) Users receive 100 POPtoken at the beginning of each market day, (20f) and is only replenished what they use from the 100 POPtoken issued on a 24 hour timed clock (20b.) One POPOLOGY coin equals 100 POPtoken. Additional amounts can be added to each crypto token hold. It relies on Blockchain technology (waves.exchange API) for its rights-managed payouts on Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT).

[0149] Users have access to HELP SCREEN instructions (FIG. 25) via navigation in all dashboards, on all screens (14k, 15j, 16j, 18c, 19j, 20e, 21h, 22l, 23m, 24h, 26g).

[0150] Inner Workings Formula of FIG. 30. The POPOLOGY Networks platform is a Unity Game engine project formatted in-WebGL which (28a, 28b, & FIG. 1) delivers an immersive and 3D user interface/workspace providing functions of content population in web-linked digital rights assets from a pluralization of aggregated sources, up to 25 APIs and as little as 3 APIs are required to join the POPOLOGY Networks platform (30k).

[0151] This content ingestion process is masked inside of a framework of fetch components designed in ASP.net on AWS servers, that additionally generate URL calls to these aggregated sources and related servers via keyword searches, enabled by IIS Manager (30g).

[0152] This system architecture then parses the ingested content into visible media thumbnails to be imported (or populated) onto the POPsphere tiles, and if content is selected by user, the related meta-data is parsed to the appropriate dashboards after being assembled by MONGOdb (30j) and filtered from our meta-Data repository.

[0153] When the content is selected to the POPcast timeline from the POPsphere wall, the content is required to render onto our server (28c & 30g) additionally ledgering its platform origin, content title, duration of time of the content, license owner and other relevant data to the meta-data repository (30i).

[0154] Each and every behavior is also recorded and tracked onto the blockchain (28d & 30h) for rewards and smart contract assignments visible in the POPblock dashboard.

[0155] Software Menu & Described Use Purpose. WebGL is a JavaScript API for rendering interactive 2D and 3D graphics within any compatible web browser without the use of plug-ins. WebGL is fully integrated with other web standards, allowing GPU-accelerated usage of physics and image processing and effects as part of the web page canvas.

IIS can serve both standard HTML webpages and dynamic webpages, such as ASP.NET applications and PHP pages.

[0156] Descriptor for POPmercial Advertising, The POPOLOGY Networks novel approach to advertisers and our users simultaneously is the gamified and intentional approach to AD RETENTION. Most all other social or search engine platforms traditionally clutter pages or insert commercial media in skippable segments or banners for the user to potentially interact. The reality here is brand retention is minimal and has a reputation of being invasive and annoying. POPOLOGY has taken this into consideration and applied a unique gaming premise that reinvents a role in which the user selects the brands they desire to identify supporting in their already curated POPcast media stream. First the user watches numerous spots from selected brands (in our POPmercial Gallery) and fulfill placement of the required number of POPmercial Adverts for the desired POPcast audience reach. The number of spots to select is automated and calculated by the length of the users total curated POPcast stream. Each spot is placed in 15 min intervals. If a POPcast is less than 15 min then a POPmercial spot is calculated to be placed between each tile in the POPcast posted. Minimum 3 tiles make up a POPcast.

[0157] These adverts were placed into the POPmercial Gallery by the brand client for user placement at an average rate of $5 per 1,000 eyes. These spots are meta-tagged by our team incorporating various relevant themes, celebrity spokesperson and search criteria by keywords. They also each carry a POPtoken crypto payout reward for each viewing audience member of the total published POPcast which users are presented with. This POPcast is published as a sharable and promoted link in its own media player, with a non-scrubbable and removed fast forward controls, only pause or rewind, due to a custom watch code at the end of each POPcast for viewing audience members to redeem. This placement premise by the user initiates a care for the brands selected, and the viewers are aware of this RELEVANT TO THE CREATOR brand loyalty/brand endorsements that additionally reward the viewing audience to watch.

[0158] Monetization & Tokenomics Formula: Brand or Corp Direct client submit the spots intended to be accepted as a POPmercial collection, they also select the audience size and the window of time suggested for advertisement to run, (4 weeks, 8 weeks or 12 weeks. [0159] On average $5 per 1,000 eyes in a 10 day cycle. [0160] $5 per 1,000 is the formula we will start with . . . also consider 1,000 POPtoken=one $5 POPOLOGYcoin

[0180] POPOLOGY Fair Use Structure: Navigating Utility and Innovation in the Digital Age. POPOLOGY's approach to Fair Use and its unique Non-Infringement Structure stands as a testament to a commitment to utility, innovation, and adherence to the law. As an Online Service Provider (OSP), the platform was designed to ensure the preservation and protection of creative expression while fostering a space for community interaction and learning: [0181] 1. POPOLOGY8's meta-search engine operates on a distinctive premise. Instead of copying and storing actual videos, it intelligently retrieves links to content resultsvideos, articles, and moredirectly from the web; [0182] 2. The inventions APIs generate third party use charges for permission quotas to use the APIs to search, retrieve, and display information from aggregated assets. By engaging in these mutually beneficial partnerships, legal standards are adhered to and contributions to the sustainable growth of content providers and creators are made; [0183] 3. The POPsphere includes a gallery of advertisements where brands and their agencies have willingly entered into agreements to showcase their video advertisements. These are full copies of the ads, including trailers and promotional materials, for which POPOLOGY has obtained explicit permission. This unique approach benefits both advertisers, who gain exposure, and users, who enjoy relevant and engaging content; [0184] 4. The present invention promotes user-generated content as a means of creative expression. Users are encouraged to upload their original works, provided they confirm that these creations are entirely their own and not copied from others. While this does not eliminate the possibility of infringement, it underscores the platforms dedication to responsible content sharing; and [0185] 5. The platform may be enrolled in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Safe Harbor program. This enrollment is not just a legal requirement; it the protection of the rights of content creators and fostering an environment where innovation thrives. By adhering to the DMCA Safe Harbor guidelines, copyright infringement claims are properly addressed while continuing to support the sharing of knowledge and culture.

[0186] The invention's groundbreaking approach includes a personalized and user assembled metasearch engine, an inventive technological concept in the digital landscape. Unlike traditional search engines that copy and store content, the inventive metasearch engine operates on a unique principle. It does not duplicate the actual videos or content but smartly retrieves native links to the content from the web. This innovative approach aligns with legal standards while allowing provision of an efficient and legally sound service.

[0187] The inventive platform introduces a groundbreaking utility that empowers users to drag and drop populated assets in the sphere directly into a timeline component that allows curation of a broadcast. What sets this apart is the use of integration into a Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT), specifically blockchain, as a Digital Rights Management (DRM) solution with component digital rights processor 301 as follows: when a user incorporates an asset into the broadcast timeline, it undergoes a transformation into part of a decentralized ledger, residing within a 501(c)(3) Community. This ledger, is cached and while transitory, serves multiple crucial purposes. One of the primary functions is content matching. The platform in conjunction with digital rights processing component 301 uses this ledger to identify authentic assets and content match them against potential imposters. This not only safeguards the integrity of content but also contributes to effective Digital Rights Management. The blockchain ledger enables the calculation of accurate ranking metrics for genuine popular content. It provides a transparent and tamper-proof record of an asset's popularity across various platforms on the global internet. The DLT blockchain utility may also enlist the public to fine-tune the attribution of credit to assets dispersed across the internet. For example, it may promote a community-driven effort that brings together people from the ecosystem to collaboratively ensure fair recognition and protection of intellectual property. Access to the blockchain records is carefully managed. While anyone within the platform ecosystem may view the blockchain records; copyright owners must be members of the platform. Ethical data management may allow credit to native links of searched content and temporarily caches them as mp4s on platform servers. This facilitates content matching services and contributes to the platform's robust Digital Rights Management feature. In essence, the platform's innovative approach to fair use, combined with the power of blockchain technology, transforms the digital landscape. It ensures content creators receive the credit they deserve while providing users with a dynamic and legally compliant platform for content sharing.

[0188] The platform introduces a revolutionary system and method for constructing a personalized and user-assembled meta-search engine. This system comprises a computational unit (referred to as the system processing component 305) that adeptly controls the overall system and retrieves, processes, and presents data. It further incorporates a diverse array of separate components, encompassing search engines, social media interfaces, and utility APIs, which operate collectively as an integrated algorithm, harmoniously facilitating data flow and interaction. The algorithm retrieves extensive streaming media search results from a minimum of three distinct API sources, including prominent search engines, dynamic social media platforms and versatile utility APIs. These search outcomes are seamlessly amalgamated into a unified Representational State Transfer (RESTful) API via RESTful API component 315, creating a centralized gateway for streamlined access. This API impressively tracks and records user behavior across all integrated APIs, both within and beyond the platform, effectively monitoring user interactions and activities. The system crafts a comprehensive and bundled algorithm that encapsulates the entirety of internet services actively engaged with by the user.
