A system and method for identifying whether an article is properly presented and duly owned by or licensed to a user and releasing assigned content to the user upon confirmation of such verifiably owned or licensed article. A manipulated user device equipped with at least one camera is deployed to determine if the article is properly presented. The device captures images and the system has the ability to determine from the images and any additional spatial information the orientation and/or position parameters of the article to confirm whether a valid spatial relationship exists between the article and the user device. Due ownership or license is verified by relying on tokens (e.g., Non-Fungible Tokens) and blockchain transaction records. The assigned content released to the user can be contextual and can range from items such as images, music, videos, games, virtual content, augmented content, coupons (virtual or physical), promotions, special offers and the like.
