transmitting the contractual agreement to one or both of the first entity and the second entity;
receiving a response message indicating approval of the contractual agreement, wherein the approval is indicated by a digital image of a physical signature;
communicating via a trust ledger interface to execute the smart contract within the distributed trust ledger to record a transfer of the token from the first distributed trust ledger account to a second distributed trust ledger account, the correspondence linking the second distributed trust ledger account with the second entity; and
updating the on-demand database system to include one or more database entries reflecting the recorded transfer of the contractual agreement transferring the copyright from the first entity to the second entity, the one or more database entries linking (1) a token identifier that uniquely identifies the token, (2) a digital asset identifier that uniquely identifies the digital asset, (3) the media item identified by the digital asset identifier, (4) the contractual agreement, and (5) the second entity.
