Cloudflare Stream now supports NFTs
Cloudflare Stream introduces a new API that enables users to associate their videos with Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). NFTs are smart contracts on the blockchain that allow provable ownership of digital content. By integrating NFTs, creators can claim ownership and control over their video works. The API takes an ERC-721 token ID and contact address to set it on a video. Once linked, the owner of the NFT can transfer admin rights on the video without involving the original user who uploaded it. Cloudflare Stream also offers accessibility features such as captions, compatibility with mobile and desktop devices, and automatic quality switching for videos.
