Stream
A user centric streaming protocol designed to empower creators and viewers simultaneously
As a streaming d’app, there is only a certain level of censorship resistance that would be deemed acceptable, given the illegal and immoral content that could be uploaded.
Therefore, we have built an articulate on-chain protocol with decentralised moderation mining as well as instant 2 click watch-to-earn, content locking or PPVs for any token. Every upload automatically mints an NFT stored on IPFS while A.I remove unlawful content and directs adult content to a dedicated 18+ zone.
Our d’app is unique as it empowers creators by enabling full ownership of subscriber data. You can now take your business anywhere you want and reach your audiences no matter what.
Given that data is the new oil, it may be wise to build your core community base here and utilise your existing social media apps to funnel users in to grow your own valuable database and ensure you remain censorship resistant. No matter what happens, never lose touch with your audience, fans, community or customers.
We earn 10% of every bounty, PPV or fee generated in the d’app in any token while users all earn proportionate shares of ad revenue which is funded by the advertisers and sponsors on our website.
Working in cohesion with our gaming and marketplace d’apps and offering a platform to showcase developments and sell our products, the streaming app upgrade is scheduled for launch December 20th 2022 though bear in mind this is a soft date. In the meantime, enjoy some teasers below of the actually built d’app now officially on test net and dive deeper into the mechanics further down.
On the above user upload dashboard, notice how simple it is for anyone to instantly upload content and in a few clicks enable the following;
Watch2earn: every token now has sustainable watch2earn utility at the click of a button
Token gated content: stream or upload content locked behind any token contract viewers must hold
PPV events: charge any token for a pay-per-view or live stream
NFT collectables: every post mints an NFT that earns the lifetime royalty attached to the video
Earn: DeHub tokens via tips through supporters and rise up on the leaderboards for larger shares of ad revenue
Every post mints an NFT simultaneously for the creator, of which the holder receives lifetime royalties and ad revenue associated with that video. Creators can therefore choose wether to keep or trade their videos directly on our marketplace.
Control what users can or can’t see while being able to export your followers' data at any time. This gives you full ownership of your channel and allows you to take your business anywhere with you, no matter what happens.
Search bars aggregate YouTube and other major streaming app APIs to save you juggling multiple apps, while the explore page also houses our live community chat and dedicated leaderboards for
Most views (MV)
Most subscribers (MS)
Biggest earners (BE)
Biggest spenders (BS)
That together will determine ad revenue share (RS). The exact algorithm to this is under beta and subject to change depending on revenue generated (RG)
MV + MS + BE + BS = (RG / RS)
This is the core algorithm, and experimentations in rewards will continue on a trial and error basis until the perfect equilibrium is found.
Badge of Honour
The more you $DHB tokens you hold, the more rewarding it is, simple as that. This includes but is not limited to the Badge of Honour system that unlocks improved cosmetics on your public profile as well as further enhanced, premium features.
Token Tipping
Our Integrated tipping services across all uploads and live streams only come with a 10% fee, compared to the usual 60% charged by the likes of TikTok and other industry leaders while also having the ability to vote on video cancellations putting the power back into the viewer's hands
Tips received for creators and tips given by viewers are logged in separate leaderboards along with viewer counts and subscribers that determine shares in ad revenue. Stakeholders of DeHub tokens receive their proportionate shares of overall protocol profit.
Decentralised Moderation Mining
In order to keep the streaming app clean, we’ve invented the above model that incentivises good actors and empowers users of the d’app to determine what should and shouldn’t be on the platform, barring the unlawful.
Only a few wallets hold over 50m $DHB tokens, of which most are operational wallets, with the remaining being known community members.
Only the core team or significant investors will have the power to instantly remove a video by burning the NFT associated. Subsequently, all the ad revenue generated and any play to earn bounties strapped to the video will be shared with all voting wallets to further deter bad actors and incentivise an engaged community.
*Amount of $DHB required for all utility is a dynamic variable, so must be subject to be changed at any time in relation to price. Any changes will be announced publicly on all official channels.
Firstly, ensure you have your wallet and profile set up, with enough gas to upload. Although we built in a converter, using universal file types such as MP4 is still advised for optimum experience. Once the transaction approves on-chain, your upload will be live. Before reporting any upload errors to tech@dehub.net, check the blockchain explorer to ensure your transaction confirmed. Any failed transactions will result in the video not being uploaded. No NFT = No Video.
Video titles can't be changed, as they are minted NFTs on-chain. Ensure no typos are present before uploading. Option to burn NFT and remove video is coming soon, or you can burn the NFT yourself currently to remove your own uploads.
If you used the wrong cover image, it can be midifed simply by clicking on it again. Categories can be selected by order of most popular, searched through, or added by users individually.
