Proof of origin is not the same as protection in practice.
Most NFT systems optimize for provenance of the original, hashes, tokens, ledgers.
When a copy appears, creators do not need adjectives like immutable or decentralized, they need a path to closure: report fast, track reliably, apply a remedy, and make the outcome visible.
That is the gap this flow addresses. It starts from the real moment, “my work was copied,” and treats provenance as signal, not solution.
Evidence opens a case, then platforms must do the hard UX work: takedown or fix attribution, compensate when appropriate, deter relists, and tell the creator and the audience what happened.
If any step breaks, proof turns into paperwork, and trust erodes.
The success metric is not “a hash exists.”
It is “Was trust restored?” Creator satisfied, audience informed, copy deterred.
Design for that outcome and NFT tools become safer for creators and clearer for markets, without abandoning the benefits of on-chain records.
