We believe that there is a market need for a decentralized video platform for user- generated content. SteemQ aims to fill that need blockchain video streaming creating a next-generation platform on top of the new Blockchain and P2P technologies.
We are bootstrapping a better version of Blockchain video streaming, with a new social model that creates a richer experience for content creators, curators, and consumers. Blockchain based Blockchain technology has disrupted the world by providing a mechanism for trust between arbitrary parties. It is the core building block for decentralized public platforms. This allows us to build on top of the same technology that powers Steemit, as well as inherit the blockchain video streaming of an existing community, currency and platform.
Democratic The monetary reward on each video is derived from the stakeholding properties of its voters, while the ranking takes into account reputation-related properties, as well. This mechanism improves curation by granting increased voting rights to users with smaller stakeholding, and high reputation scores. The system aims to empower its users to the maximum extent possible while remaining resilient against Sybil attacks. Censorship resistant Unlike the centralized, privately owned platforms, SteemQ is censorship-resistant.
Users will not be subject to content take-downs or other means of censorship as a result of an arbitrary decision within the platform-owning corporation, a faulty algorithm or a false copyright claim.
Community blockchain video streaming SteemQ allows its users to take action against spammers, content thieves and other misbehaving agents through downvoting. No single person has the authority to nuke content by themselves. For every questionable piece of content, a consensus has to be reached by a collaboration of multiple high-reputation downvotes. In such an event, the rankings of the video drops, and the participants in the P2P CDN have the ability to remove the content and thus slow down or eliminate its propagation.
To aid in moderation-related decision making, a clear code of conduct shall be established. It is anti-fragile by blockchain video streaming - the bigger it gets, the better it runs. You and your neighbor are both into snowboarding. A new snowboarding compilation has been released on SteemQ, and your neighbor is first to watch it. When you want to watch the same video, it is streamed directly from your neighbor's cache blockchain video streaming rather than some data center in a foreign country.
This not only allows for lower latency, but also reduces the load on your ISP. Site Structure As a starting point, we can look at the two existing and currently quite prominent models: YouTube treats each user as a separate entity, and offers an experience that is highly optimized towards passive yet recurring content consumption, which consequently affects the ad impressions. YouTube allows its users blockchain video streaming subscribe to individual brands, however, judging by the design of the website, most of the discovery happens through "recommended videos" and autoplay functionalities.
In the center of Reddit's design is the sub-reddit. Each sub-reddit is like a little island, with its own community which is brought together by a common interest. SteemQ aims to find a balance between both models. We are not afraid to try new things such as, but not limited to:. Money We believe that money should not be the primary driver of people's behavior. We would like to remove money and its influence on people's decision-making in regards blockchain video streaming voting.
Voting on contributions of other people should reflect the voter's experience with said contributions in the purest form possible. For example, if a video made you laugh, or if blockchain video streaming have just discovered something totally awesome, you should be able to express your reaction with an blockchain video streaming.
If the information on monetary reward is presented, it might influence your perception, and change your behavior. Perhaps you might feel like the video already earned too much, and refrain from blockchain video streaming despite blockchain video streaming fact it made you laugh in the first place. Perhaps it could even trigger emotions of envy and blockchain video streaming, or amplify negative feelings in the realm of the scarcity mindset. For example, a video explaining a 'binominal options pricing model' may be very valuable to a small group of individuals, blockchain video streaming completely devoid of value to the rest of the world.
A funny cat prank video might be valuable to a large audience, but completely worthless to our mathematics enthusiasts. We can conclude with reasonable certainty that more often than not, the cat video will outperform the geeky math video, making our hard-working mathematician dissatisfied with his reward.
Perhaps a whale who likes math will discover our options pricing video, making it earn more than the cat video. In this event, the producer of the latter will be dissatisfied.
Most often, however, we will see two or more funny cat videos being submitted at the same time, yet one of them might make it, while the rest of them don't.
This is the best example of subjectivity and luck at play. This is why SteemQ will remove the monetary information from the view, and replace it with a ranking score. This score aims to a more democratic reflection of community feedback, as well as act sa a more emotionally-neutral way to keep score. The monetary component will still be there, both on blockchain video streaming blockchain as well as on the SteemQ website itself, available for anyone who wants to take blockchain video streaming look.
However, it will be decoupled from the main view, for the reasons outlined above. Rewards System The rewards system could be tweaked to improve curation as well as further democratize influencing factors.
This could be achieved through proxies, or a modification of the weight function itself. We would love to experiment with this, whether the idea is simple, such as a linear system with minimums, decreased exponent, range limited sigmoid function, or a more complex mathematical model.
IPFS is a great tool that does a few things really well. It provides a robust layer for managing, transporting, referencing, deduplicating, versioning and ensuring the integrity of the content.
We can secure the multihashes by storing them on the immutable blockchain ie. STEEM's posts become immutable after first reward payout. STEEM's transfers are much faster, being immutable and permanent within seconds, when the block is confirmed.
This way, we can simultaneously guarantee the ownership and integrity of the content. We still have several hard problems to solve, in regard to the content distribution itself. Intelligent distribution and sharding. The amount of storage required to host video files is mind-boggling.
We need to develop a system that can track the state of content replication so that a sufficient number of replicas exist at all times to blockchain video streaming data loss. We can get pretty far with a P2P model, where every user of the site automatically re-seeds the recently blockchain video streaming videos in blockchain video streaming background. This however is not sufficient to guarantee 1. We need to adopt a mining model that provides content availability and its distribution bandwidth.
New content could pay for hosting with a percentage of its rewards pool, while the old content hosting could be paid for via a smart contract. Likewise, all consequent SteemQ-related posts will have their rewards sent to steemq-funds blockchain video streaming, which acts as a funding source for the SteemQ project.
Witness furion is now a witness. Stable revenue from minting blocks could be used for development and SteemQ CDN if furion becomes a main witness. We blockchain video streaming looking for a Senior React developer to join the team.
If you're interested, ping furion on https: Blockchain video streaming you are interested in the project, and would like to blockchain video streaming involved, join steemq on https: Don't miss out on the next post - follow me. Well, a bloop single might be enough to start a new uptrend, might Blockchain video streaming need to be used.
This is exactly what we need! I am so sick of YouTube's bullshit, they completely do not recognize "Fair Use" anymore and they demonetize anything they deem to be "non advertiser friendly" which is utter bs.
If you actually launch this service I will upload all the videos I make for YouTube, my channel has almost thousand views so far, to this service as well. I will also tell me my friends who all have bigger channels than me to switch over.
Thanks and you definitely earned a follow for this one! I'm really excited to blockchain video streaming such format since I'm a videoblogger. I don't like some of youtube restrictions, so SteemQ seems like perfect fit. And I know I'm not alone - hella lot of people are waiting for something like this.
In my assessment, video blockchain video streaming will take years to manifest: You are certainly way ahead of our time I mean, when thinking about it, there are so many potential issues that it's not even funny.
Like spamming the blockchain with huge videos. This equals blockchain video streaming economic amplification attack where I spend a blockchain video streaming cents on my internet connection just to upload something big, which then needs to be replicated multiple blockchain video streaming even when sharded - a cost which will burden the nodes. He's not planning to put the videos themselves on the blockchain, but still they do need to go somewhere, and the problem is challenging.
I agree with your assessment for the most part but still encourage the effort. I think it has a chance. Yes, I realized it after I re-read the specs. My attention was dominated by the "blockchain-based" at the start of the post and I was like "huh? On second reading, IPFS is far from optimal for this type of job but I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Blockchain video streaming don't want to discourage anything and indeed furion has been very active as a developer and he knows his stuff. Perhaps he can think of solutions to tackle the issues at hand. I'm a dancer and always have the problem blockchain video streaming youtube takes down my videos due to copyright infringement. If this platform would be released, I could finally create concept videos and short films with great music and not just royalty free.
This would be blockchain video streaming game changer, and I'm looking forward to the release in 6 months! Exciting project, good job! We might as well post whatever pictures we like tooafter all, who cares about copyright infringement. I am excited for Blockchain video streaming but your idea to create short films with great music and not just royalty free is a dangerous precedent and one likely to keep SteemQ alongside other notorious piracy sites like VKontakte.
