[PRESS RELEASE – Nashville, United States, April 16th, 2025]
Elacity, the Web3 platform reinventing digital ownership for creators and fans, today announces the launch of Elacity, a groundbreaking upgrade that empowers creators to tokenize content, earn direct revenue, and build a community-owned economy—without middlemen, censorship, or platform fees.
“We’ve rebuilt the internet for creators—where you don’t just post content, you own it,” said Sasha Mitchell, founder of Elacity.
What’s New in Elacity
- Users can Publish & Sell Instantly with Full Ownership: Creators can tokenize media into securely encrypted digital assets with smart contract-enforced access, resale, and royalty rules—no code required. Users can keep up to 95% of revenue and automate everything from day one.
- Smart Channels with Subscriptions & Buy-Now Access: Users can launch open or closed content channels and monetize access through time-based NFT subscriptions while simultaneously offering “buy now” NFT access purchases for individual assets—ideal for collectors and casual fans alike.
- Utility Token Access & Gated Communities: Allow users to assign any existing ERC-20 or NFT collection as an access pass—instantly turning holders into members. Unlocks premium content, chat, perks, and royalty rights tied to wallet-based identity.
- Programmable Royalties & Secondary Market Control: Distributes royalties down to 0.1% to any wallet—collaborators, fans, or investors—instantly and transparently. Users can customize resale rights and automate revenue splits with real-time payments on every transaction.
- Web2 Simplicity Meets Web3 Ownership: Users can onboard with email, Apple, Google, or X. No wallet required. Elacity delivers creator-grade token tools with the intuitive experience of a modern streaming app—increasingly simple, secure, and accessible to all.
Why It Matters
Platforms like Patreon, YouTube, and Gumroad helped creators monetize—but they still control the rules, the audience, and the economics. Elacity flips the model: Creators own their platform. Fans own the content. And the community owns the economy.
Elacity is the first platform to bring real ownership and automated royalties to the mass creator market—without sacrificing ease of use.
“This isn’t another monetization tool,” said Anders Alm, CTO of Elacity. “Elacity is the framework for a new creative economy, where content is scarce, fans are stakeholders, and creators finally get what they’re worth.”
Built on Elastos, Powered by ELA, Secured by Bitcoin
Elacity launches on the Elastos SmartWeb, a full-stack Web3 infrastructure designed for digital sovereignty. Every asset is protected by decentralized identities, encrypted peer-to-peer storage (IPFS), and trustless smart contracts.
Transactions are settled in ELA, Elastos’ native currency, which is merge-mined with Bitcoin—secured by over 50% of Bitcoin’s global hash power at no additional energy cost. This makes ELA not just scarce but one of the most secure reserve assets in the world, and a high-integrity foundation for Elacity’s creator economy.
“ELA isn’t just another token,” said Sasha. “It’s a real utility coin, fueling content sales, royalties, and creator rewards. As Elacity’s business model grows, so does the demand for ELA. The incentives are finally aligned.”
Who It’s For
- Musicians releasing collectible tracks with built-in resale rights
- Filmmakers selling early access, limited editions, or funding rounds
- Educators distributing tokenized courses and gated community channels
- Podcasters & Writers encrypting premium episodes or essays
- In the future, Developers & AI Builders licensing software and models with smart contract-enforced rights
Whether launching the first content drop or running a global fanbase, Elacity gives users the tools to own their content, earn their worth, and grow their community.
