    Abstract: In one embodiment, an instruction is received at a blockchain server from a first digital rights management (DRM) client, the instruction including an instruction to transfer a DRM license to an encrypted content item to a second DRM client. A block to be recorded in a blockchain, is created, the block including a content item ID of said encrypted content item, one of a device ID of a device including the second DRM client or a user ID of a user of the second DRM client, DRM license information for said DRM license, and a DRM decryption key for decrypting said encrypted content item. The block is recorded in the blockchain. A confirmation message is sent to the second DRM client confirming that the block was written to the blockchain. Related systems, methods, and apparatuses are also described.
