Introduction

The Dolphin IP Asset Exchange Contracts provide a way for creators and IP owners to manage their intellectual property assets on the blockchain. With this contract, you can list your IP assets for sale, buy shares of listed IP assets, sell your shares, and create derivative works from existing IP assets.

Main Functions

list

Function Signature:

function list(address ipId) public

Description:

If you are the IP owner, you can list your IP asset on the marketplace.

Parameters:

• ipId (address): The unique identifier of the IP asset.

Usage:

// Example usage
dolphinContract.list(0xYourIpAssetAddress);

buy

Function Signature:

function buy(address ipId) public payable

Description:

If the IP has been listed by the owner, you can buy shares from the IP asset.

Parameters:

• ipId (address): The unique identifier of the IP asset.

Usage:

// Example usage
dolphinContract.buy{value: 1 ether}(0xYourIpAssetAddress);

sell

Function Signature:

function sell(address ipId) public

Description:

You can sell your IP share at any time.

Parameters:

• ipId (address): The unique identifier of the IP asset.

Usage:

// Example usage
dolphinContract.sell(0xYourIpAssetAddress);

remix

Function Signature:

function remix(
    address parentIpId,
    address licenseTemplate,
    uint256 licenseTermsId,
    string memory ipUri
) public

Description:

You can choose a listed IP to create a remix, minting a derivative with a higher floor price.

Parameters:

• parentIpId (address): The address of the parent IP.
• licenseTemplate (address): The address of the license template.
• licenseTermsId (uint256): The ID of the license terms.
• ipUri (string memory): The URI of the new IP.

Usage:

// Example usage
dolphinContract.remix(0xParentIpAddress, 0xLicenseTemplateAddress, 101, "ipfs://new-ip-uri");

Examples

Here are some examples of how to interact with the Dolphin IP Asset Exchange Contracts using JavaScript and the Web3 library:

Listing an IP asset

const ipId = "0xYourIpAssetAddress";
await dolphinContract.list(ipId);

Buying an IP share

const ipId = "0xYourIpAssetAddress";
await dolphinContract.buy(ipId, { value: ethers.parseEther("1") });

Selling an IP share

const ipId = "0xYourIpAssetAddress";
await dolphinContract.sell(ipId);

Remixing an IP asset

const parentIpId = "0xParentIpAddress";
const licenseTemplate = "0xLicenseTemplateAddress";
const licenseTermsId = 101;
const ipUri = "ipfs://new-ip-uri";
await dolphinContract.remix(parentIpId, licenseTemplate, licenseTermsId, ipUri);
