SingularDTV: We Are Breaker
Entertainment studio SingularDTV rebrands as Breaker and launches its entertainment DApp, a decentralized application powered by blockchain technology. Breaker’s beta version goes live today at Breaker.io.
In 2018, blockchain became synonymous with innovation, bringing transparency to a wide range of industries, including entertainment. This year Breaker leads the way with a consumer-facing ecosystem offering global audiences a bold slate of films and music.
Founded in 2016 by author/music producer Zach LeBeau, film producer Kim Jackson, and blockchain visionary Joseph Lubin (Ethereum co-founder, Consensys founder & CEO), Breaker was built with the artist in mind as a rights management system and peer-to-peer distribution platform.

As CEO LeBeau explains, “SingularDTV has evolved into Breaker, which is a dynamic concept with many meanings. It also signifies the crest of a wave coming to shore with explosive energy. We created Breaker to make a similar impact and help evolve the entertainment industry.”
Co-founder and President of Entertainment Kim Jackson adds that, “As trailblazers in crypto and blockchain, we realized early on that blockchain technology offers unprecedented transparency. Breaker offers artists and rights holders with this opportunity to own their vision, offering a platform to bring it to life.”
On January 31, Breaker launches with key partnerships including FilmRise, Oscilloscope Laboratories, and Gramatik’s LowTemp Records. Films include Cate Blanchett’s MANIFESTO, Kelly Reichardt’s MEEK’S CUT-OFF, Christine Crokos’sPIMP, hard-hitting documentaries (THE ROAD MOVIE), comedy (Henry Rollins’s KEEP TALKING PAL), and classics (A STAR IS BORN from 1937).
