We’re excited to announce our partnership with LGCY Network! Leveraging LGCY Network’s L1 blockchain energizes our disruptive music contract management and royalty NFT systems with cheaper and faster smart contract and NFT deployments, allowing us to get artists paid in the Web3 era.

About Paction

Paction’s mission is to establish a standard for digital legal contracts and smart contracts allowing the music industry to collaborate on a shared blockchain solution that can integrate and replace traditional paper-based systems. Paction will introduce the music business to a Web3 infrastructure that removes costs associated with traditional contract management, improving the transparency, credibility, and speed of royalty transactions.

Paction components:

  • Contract management and smart-contract transformation enable the digitization of legal contracts. All legal agreements on Paction are briefed. For users, the briefs present complicated legal agreements in an easy-to-read format, but Paction Briefs are actually smart contracts that turn the elements that are the basis of all royalty transactions into executable code. This creates a modern, modular, and data-driven smart-contract which powers automatic payment execution and settlement on the LGCY blockchain.
  • Royalty term extraction and NFT creation allow for the tokenization of participation rights contained within a smart-contract, providing direct ownership for the NFT holder. Royalty share earnings fed through Paction flow directly to, and accrue within, the linked NFT.
  • Paction Payment Gateway will allow other music industry participants to automatically and trustlessly pay music royalties to any rights shares represented by Paction contracts and NFTs with ease.

Paction users are anyone in the supply chain including sound recording distributors, mechanical rights organizations, performing rights societies, and record companies
