Hey! No worries, I am still here, lurking in the dark.
Thank you to everyone for your answers. You just confirmed my thoughts in regard to security, transparency and ownership. What I really wanted was an input from a different perspective/niche. That's it. People in the art industry place their answers on certain knowledge, people in the blockchain tech industry place their answers on certain knowledge too. I wanted to see if both sides "tie" somewhere. Although the community I've been building on Instagram is not very different from others (yet), the growing opportunity to leverage a "big knot of people" is something I shouldn't miss. We are talking business here. I could build a simple store and sell products, or I could do something bigger, innovative. The examples I threw at the end of the original post were shots in the dark.
