As a decentralized blockchain network, Ethereum enables us to do immutable,
tamper-proof and secure transactions. However, its current design makes it very
difficult to trace the real owner behind an address, if not impossible.
This thesis aims to give a solution to the verification of identities behind Ethereum
addresses, as well as to demonstrate how a third party service can take advantage
of it.
In particular, we have worked with InVID Rights Management web platform to
provide a blockchain-based service to guarantee that the rights given over social
media videos are safe, transparent and non-repudiable.
