I’m building my mindshare in @campnetworkxyz community, so I’m starting a series of analytical posts on the IP market - “Make IP Great Again” Sharing how I see this space and why you might be missing something big right now🧐 Have you ever thought about tokenizing IP and this market in general, and why it's even needed? Part 1 At first glance, it might not sound as hyped as DeFi, Prediction Markets, or RWAs, but I decided to dive deeper. What comes to mind when you hear "IP"? For me, it's creative stuff like music, images, and so on -things that feel far removed from hardcore DeFi or crypto degens. But IP, in the broad sense, stands for "intellectual property," which includes creations of the mind: inventions (patents on tech or processes), literary and artistic works (copyrights on books, music, films, software), designs and symbols/names/images (trademarks for brands and logos), plus trade secrets (like the Coca-Cola formula). In today's world, it also covers datasets for AI, AI models themselves, gaming assets, metaverse land - basically all intangible assets that generate value in the digital economy. Estimates peg the global IP market at $80T+, where 90% of the S&P 500's market cap comes from these intangibles. This can seem distant from finance because IP is a relatively recent phenomenon (modern patent systems date back to the 19th century, copyrights even earlier but mass-adopted in the 20th), and IP is essentially a derivative - an artificially created wrapper for an intangible asset. With something like gold or money, it's easier to grasp the financial side since they've long been tools for exchange and storing value. IP, on the other hand, only solidified in our world not too long ago, and now we're talking about tokenizing it. But the market potential is massive; it's just hard to wrap your head around how rights to a song or a dataset can be a serious asset. Take Disney: their IP (characters, franchises) pulls in $63B yearly from licensing. Or Michael Jackson's catalog, valued in the billions. In the AI era, datasets for training models are a huge bottleneck - "dirty" data (without provenance) leads to lawsuits and losses, while clean IP could unlock trillions in value. If we set crypto aside, investing directly in IP is tough, and even creating that derivative wrapper is a hassle. For example, you make a song - in Web2, fixing your ownership is no joke, leading to two big issues: securing primary rights and protecting the asset (via registration at places like USPTO or WIPO, but that's bureaucratic, costly, and jurisdictionally messy), and second, monetizing it (negotiating deals, tracking usage, collecting royalties through middlemen). So, without crypto, how do you invest in IP? Options are slim: buy stocks in IP-heavy companies (like Apple with their patents or Disney with copyrights), join JVs or collaborate with firms developing IP (e.g., biotech startups with patents), purchase royalty streams via securitization (classic example: Bowie Bonds, where music royalties are bundled into bonds), or get into IP funds (like Fortress or IP Capital Partners, which buy patents and license them out). As you can see, not a lot - high barriers, need to be an accredited investor, deals are opaque, liquidity sucks, and for small creators, it's basically off-limits. This is where tokenization opens up a ton of possibilities: IP turns into a programmable asset on blockchain - embed provenance (proof of origin), auto-royalties via smart contracts, fractional ownership for crowd investing, composability for remixing (e.g., license a meme like Chillguy and capture value from memecoins), integration with AI (pay for data usage in models), and liquidity through DeFi (use as collateral for loans or trade on DEXes). It solves real pains like intermediary costs, disputes (68% of patents get invalidated on challenge), and unlocks that $80T market for the crypto economy, where RWAs are already at $24B in 2025. Early players like Camp Network with their AI-native infra show how it works: register IP, set terms, monetize instantly.

check https://t.co/pAUYrSewBm yourself instead of repeating their numbers betmoar’s top acc did 50M of their 150M, polyhelper’s top did 2M of 6M (volume in $, not shares) same ~1/3 concentration either way, nowhere near 90% only counts as ‘wash’ when it’s not betmoar apparently lol
