RE: The HIVE Delegation Debacle
It belongs to you. No-one owns the blockchain, it's merely an indelible log of what you choose to put on it. It records the very fact and time that you published it, so would be proof of your intellectual ownership if anyone tries to steal it at a future point.
Exactly, however, when an Author publishes copy-written material, permission has to be sought to copy or store it. Where the Author decides to publish it is where the permission is granted. If I publish a book with Random House, and I then find out that Simon & Schuster has copied everything from Random House's catalog without my permission, that is illegal.
