Pioneering Blockchain Visionary Backs Decentralized Publishing and Media to Ensure Users Truly Own Their Digital Content BOULDER, CO, UNITED STATES, April 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ — In a bold move to reshape the future of digital media, Charles Hoskinson, co-founder of Ethereum and Cardano, has announced a strategic investment – made through the Hoskinson Family Office, LLC (HFO)- in Cosas.io y Book.io, two cutting-edge platforms leading the charge in decentralized content ownership. This investment solidifies Hoskinson’s vision of a world where digital books, media, and collectibles belong to the people who purchase them—not to corporations that can revoke access at will.
For years, consumers have accepted a broken model in which digital purchases exist only as revocable licenses controlled by centralized platforms. If an eBook retailer shuts down or a streaming service changes its terms, users can lose access to content they believed they owned. Book.io and Stuff.io are rewriting the rules by leveraging blockchain technology to give people permanent, transferable ownership of their digital media.
“Ownership is a fundamental right, yet in the digital world, we’ve allowed it to slip away,” said Charles Hoskinson. “When you buy a physical book, it’s yours forever. You can lend it, resell it, or pass it down for generations. But with today’s digital media, that’s not the case. You’re renting under the illusion of ownership. Stuff.io and Book.io are restoring digital property rights, and I’m thrilled to be a part of this movement.”
