Why MADE CX Exists

Black creativity has always built global markets—yet no system has ever existed to protect its origin, regulate its commercial use, or return its economic value to the communities that generate it.

MADE CX ends that era.

We are the Cultural Exchange Platform transforming creativity into protected, ownable, enforceable Creative Property, upheld by the Cultural Property Rights Standard™ (CPRS) and recorded through BLK CHAIN ID™ blockchain verification.

The Problem

Black Creativity
Annual Global Value
$15T
No Protection
No Royalties
No Verification
No Enforcement

The value leaks out. The origin disappears.

Culture Finally Has a Ledger

The infrastructure culture has always needed.

01

Register

Creators and brands record cultural assets to receive a BLK CHAIN ID™—the blockchain certificate of origin and ownership.

02

Value

Cultural Property Valuation Framework™ establishes fair market value for every verified creative asset on the platform.

03

License

CPRS Compliance ensures all commercial use follows verified, ethical, enforceable protocols for cultural IP.

04

Enforce

Custodian Creditor Services and Cultural Liens protect creator rights and ensure proper attribution and compensation.

The Manifesto

Black creativity moves the world. It shapes industries, defines aesthetics, drives markets, and fuels the global imagination. And yet, its value has never been structurally protected.

MADE CX brings the system, standard, and commercial enforcement layer that culture has always deserved. We are the public ledger for cultural commerce—verifying origin, setting valuations, enforcing rights, and licensing creative property ethically.

We do this to protect creators, regulate brands, and ensure cultural economic value finally returns to the Global Majority.

"Culture is the world's most powerful operating system. MADE CX is the ledger that protects it."

Licensing

Ethical framework for commercial use

Enforcement

Legal protection and rights management

The Culture Property Rights Standard™ (CPRS) is the foundational governance system behind MADE CX — the first global framework designed to recognize, regulate, and protect cultural creativity as economic property.

CPRS establishes the rules, ethical obligations, and commercial processes required to ensure Black creativity is respected, valued, and compensated across every sector where culture is used, monetized, or replicated.

The MADE Council™

Stewards of Cultural Integrity + Economic Protection

The MADE Council is the independent governing body that oversees the Cultural Property Rights Standard. Composed of cultural economists, legal experts, creators, technologists, archivists, and community leaders, the Council ensures that MADE CX operates with transparency, rigor, and cultural fidelity.

The Council is responsible for:

  • Approving high-value or sensitive Creative Property registrations
  • Resolving origin disputes and review escalations
  • Overseeing valuation methodologies and market policy
  • Setting compliance expectations for brands and institutions
  • Protecting against cultural erasure, distortion, or unethical commercial use
  • Guiding the long-term ethical evolution of CPRS globally

Working in two-year terms, Council members serve as the guardians of cultural integrity, ensuring MADE CX remains a public institution of trust and accountable to the creators and communities whose culture fuels the global marketplace.

A Standard Built for the Future of Culture

As AI, digital media, and global culture accelerate faster than traditional IP law can respond, CPRS creates a new foundation for ownership. Every registration, valuation, license, and lien on MADE CX adheres to this standard, ensuring the rights of Black creators are protected today, tomorrow, and for generations ahead.

CPRS exists so that:

  • Culture is no longer invisible in the balance sheets of global commerce
  • Creators are no longer unnamed in the systems that monetize their work
  • Communities are no longer excluded from the value they generate

This is the cultural contract the world has been missing. Now finally written, standardized, and enforced.
