The new innovation introduced by Ope Banwo-led Nollytainment, Nollycoin, is a peer-to-peer creative works sharing and registry system for the movie industry in the third world countries, particularly Africa.

Nollycoin uses a decentralised blockchain technology to publish, distribute and pay those involved in the movies.

The system has been created to ensure that those who should be paid for being part of movie production (producers, scriptwriters, director etc) get their payment immediately a transaction is completed on the platform.
