Hi this is sort of insanely coincidental that I stumbled upon this, but I’m working on exactly what you and everyone in the replies is describing. I’m building an Ethereum-based image-authentication system called Prometheus, it’s based on authors uploading their ‘RAW sensor data’ derived from camera capture as proof-of-photography onto file-storage networks; a smart-contract-notary for those uploaded images that links them to JPEG hashes; and a prediction-market overlay-layer where the Schelling-point is “what are the odds this image is authentic”, which provides non-verifying users with economically-backed proof of authenticity. I really hope you read this as I’ve been waiting for somebody to realise how big this is.
