Datavault AI Inc. (DVLT) shares soared nearly 26% in Monday’s pre-market trade before paring most of the gains after the company announced the issuance of two new patents in its blockchain-based content management and monetization portfolio.
The company stated that these new patents enhance its existing technologies, such as Sumerian Crypto Anchors, DataScore, and DataValue AI agents.
“The issuance of these patents represents a major milestone in our mission to empower creators and enterprises with trusted, scalable data and content monetization,” said Nathaniel Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI.
Retail sentiment on Stocktwits around Datavault AI trended in the ‘neutral’ territory at the time of writing.
Datavault stated that these two new patents cover systems and methods for secure content licensing and tokenized monetization using blockchain technology and smart contracts.
The first patent in question concerns a system that monetizes digital content through blockchain-managed tokens. Datavault automatically identifies content usage, verifies licensing via smart contracts, enforces compliance, and distributes fees according to predefined terms.
The second patent covers a content licensing platform that uses blockchain ledgers and secure identifiers to register, track, license, and monetize creative works.
The company stated that with the addition of these patents to its intellectual property portfolio, Datavault is in a position to capitalize on the growing data monetization market.
It cited a SkyQuest report stating that this market is projected to exceed $7 billion in 2025, on track to surge to $17 billion by 2033.
DVLT stock is down 51% year-to-date and 41% over the past 12 months.
