OK, So everyone wants to know -
The who, what, when , where , why's and how's.

Well in this episode I'm going to explain exactly what it is. It's likely much better than you really think at first glance. We're going to dive into the full Business plan listed on http://www.rakugo.co so that we can give our investments much more validations towards to upcoming success of Rakugo. You are welcome to download it yourself and follow along with me, or give it a full review for yourself. It really provides alot of insights into whats happening here.

So, What is Rakugo?

Rakugo is an Ethereum blockchain-based secure content publishing platform that rewards contributors with revenue and exposure for their content. The misson is to allow anyone to materialize and protect their creative value in a simple and intuitive way - using blockchain technology.
Historically, online publishers force creators to give up rights to their content, and demonetize the authors, while reaping advertisement profits solely for the company. We have seen similar styles of events occur with buzzfeed, and vice news as examples. These authors entirely give up their rights for a simple line of credit on who wrote it. They receive no incentives and sign off all rights to their published work once it is submitted.
Rakugo brings together a community of content creators, editors, publishers, and readers, to create a new +decentralized publishing economy.

Why should I use rakugo? Doesnt "Steem-it" pay users already for publishing?

Well sure, Steem-it has a great system built, but its lacking correcting in my opinion. On steem-it users are paid using an upvoting system, however, if you don't add value to your account using cryptocurrency, your upvotes arent worth much. This leads to a group of "whales" with large value accounts, upvoting each other in a circle reaping all the benefits, while smaller kats go unnoticed by the majority and get drowned in pennies.
Rakugo is changing this model entirely. They are utilizing the news media style similar to Buzz feed and other multi Billion dollar publications.They plan to utilize in on advertising revenue and distribute that fairly to users based on the value they add to the platform. This ensures a FAIR and EQUAL system unlike Steemit currently uses.
Rakugo also plans to offer paid "premium" content subscriptions to prominant curators. This means authors will ++be able to release public content, aswell as request micro fees for visibility on larger more scalable content.
Both of these features combined with add immense value to publishers content. Rakugo also plans to utilize a copyright for authors. Users will be able to fully secure their content from theft or plagerism while FULY retaining the rights to their work and revenue. Something that has NEVER been done before. Before Rakugo that is.
