The unlockable content is expected to provide the buyer with both a roadmap and running start relating to the Patent and blockchain developments over the past several years. The buyer will unlock litigation work product and documentation on 15 products, platforms and companies relating to the Patent’s invention. Interested bidders are encouraged to visit the True Return Systems LLC website for additional information here.

With the Patent NFT, the purchaser will receive an executed agreement, transferring to the purchaser all of True Return’s right, title, and interest in and to the Patent. This includes True Return’s right to sue for past, present, and future infringement of the Patent and to collect for damages from past infringement of the Patent.

The Patent’s 2018 grant represents some of the earliest foundational work integrating “real world” applications and “off-chain” data on to new and existing blockchains and ledgers in a fast, reliable, auditable, and environmentally responsible manner.

This offering continues to present an opportunity to participate in what looks to be the first sale of a patent via blockchain NFT, and further presents a historically significant opportunity to acquire a pioneering blockchain patent through blockchain technology. The auction’s novel use of unlockable content is expected to expand the uses and markets for NFTs.

The Patent

The Patent is based on pioneering and foundational work which continues to be uniquely forward-looking with expected benefits to many businesses and industries including healthcare, pharma, global trade, financial services, and data sciences. The Patent’s combination of “on-chain” and “off-chain” storage and processes relate to advances in both the on-chain digital and cryptocurrency worlds, and the natively off-chain worlds of trade, manufacturing, and banking.

The general approach of the ’797 Patent employs layered processing and data storage, where new or pre-existing blockchains or ledgers can reflect the performance of an outside event, observation, or price. The Patent improves previous blockchain systems by moving functionality and storage off the blockchain while simultaneously allowing the blockchain to utilize off-chain data to update transaction records on the blockchain.

ESG and Climate

There is also an important ESG climate component to the Patent. Filed in early 2018, the Patent was already addressing the inefficiencies of certain blockchain validation processes. Broader advancement of certain blockchain sciences risks exacerbating crypto’s current environmental challenges. The Patent presents streamlined and trusted processes and storage systems to address the issues of today and tomorrow, and its technology should be a core component of socially responsible blockchain systems going forward.

Abstraction Distraction
Understanding 'free-flowing' abstract art does not come naturally for everyone. It is the kind of art that makes some people scratch their heads. What people don't realize is that most abstract artists have excellent drawing skills, a fine sense of composition, & a deep understanding of the workings of colour. Most abstract artists have the ability to draw a perfectly rendered rose or a realistic portrait, but they choose not to. Instead they choose to express their creativity by creating a visual experience that is more free and unencumbered by the weight of objects. I leave a larger % of spontaneity in creating art that's more abstract.

Beautiful Worlds
Welcome to the ‘Beautiful worlds’ where nature and technology have merged into a single entity. These are Ai generated and hand finished visions of solarpunk future in which I would really like our future generations to live and prosper: the future we might have if we took the very “alternative route” which now lies before us: replacing states and corporations which free federations of communities and cooperatives, using decentralist and ecological technologies to create a world beyond economic scarcity and social hierarchy, defined by autonomy, mutual aid, diversity, and inclusiveness. The long-term goals of solarpunk are freedom and well-being for all by adopting and developing such ecological technologies as: solar, wind, wave and geothermal energy rather than oil or gas to generate electricity; a world of decentralized eco-cities, permaculture and vertical farming, free and open-source software, open-source hardware, small-scale fabrication laboratories, micro-manufacturing, 3D-printing, and countless examples of commons-based peer-production online: meeting the maximum amount of needs, in the shortest time, using the minimum possible amount of energy. It’s a world of decentralized and confederated eco-communities, using technology for human-centric and eco-centric ends rather than for accumulating power and profit – mending the metabolic rift between first nature (the natural world) and second nature (human culture) – and where social hierarchies of race, gender, sexuality, and disability are considered horror stories from the past “oil age”. Solarpunk desires societies of polycultural ethnic diversity and gender liberation, where each person is able to actualize themselves in societal environment of free experimentation and communal caring; This philosophy proposes that in order for the social and natural worlds to reconcile, humans must first transform their relations to each other – recreating society along egalitarian, cooperative, and democratic lines – and then transform their relations towards nature – adopting an attitude to cooperation, rather than domination, towards the planet and its nonhuman forms of life.
