Infrastructure for Owning Influence Patron envisions infrastructure for acquiring influence through exclusive relationships with social media creators worldwide, as well as through co-ownership and mergers and acquisitions (M&A). To tokenize something means to record rights to it as a token on a blockchain. On-chain means an action or record exists on a blockchain, where anyone can verify it. Patron aims to value what creators and individuals build, such as IP and social media accounts, tokenize it and make it tradable on-chain. Patron (PAT) is the core token, and CO:OWNER (CO) is the standard for creator-specific tokens. For example, a creator with a monetized YouTube channel could use YouTube Lending to see a valuation and a proposed borrowing limit. Later, rights linked to that channel’s revenue could be listed on Creator dExchange, where supporters become co-owners.

How it works

The products are designed to connect in one flow. This describes the concept, not a live integrated service.
  1. Value. A creator connects a monetized account and sees a valuation and a proposed borrowing limit in YouTube Lending.
  2. Collateralize and finance. Rights linked to the channel are recorded as collateral tokens, and repayments come from a share of monthly revenue.
  3. List and trade. Channels and IP tokenized as collateral can later be listed on Creator dExchange.
  4. Co-own. Supporters who hold a creator’s CO:OWNER (CO) token receive revenue distributions each month, in proportion to their holdings, executed by smart contract.
