Let's talk about @CryptoFlix

CryptoFlix is a media company on the Ethereum blockchain. It is currently on the State of the dapps. CryptoFlix is basically about the streaming of movies. You can actually find different types of movies on this platform, different genres and different categories.

On CryptoFlix, you can find action movies (I know that's what majority of people love, all the fights and shooting; really captivating and interesting indeed), you can also find love movies (romantic movies on CryptoFlix as well - everyone loves love), you can as well find horror movies (I have a friend who is completely in love with horror movies, he finds them very interesting).

I'm actually a fan of romantic movies, but if you could add a little action to it, that would be really cool for me as well. You also have educational movies (I noticed that the majority of people don't like to learn, they just want the shooting and acrobatics movies), but movies are not suppose to be all about that - on CryptoFlix, you would find very educational videos, that you would learn one or two very important things from.

On one side, you can upload movies on to CryptoFlix and make it public for everyone to watch and enjoy. And on the other hand, you would be getting rewards in crypto currency, whether you are the one who created the content or you are the user. It's really amazing that one can earn rewards in form of crypto currency for watching movies, that one would have anyway watched without incentives.

It's also splendid that all these movies uploaded are secured, as they are stored on the blockchain, which we all know is very secure.

Most of the movies or videos on CryptoFlix can be watched for free (especially the educational videos eg movies based on books, videos about museum, sports and other really educational things), but some videos may require a very little token fee. And the reward that you get from streaming movies on CryptoFlix is Flix token. You can also stream movies of different qualities, depending on the kind of quality you are looking for. For example, you can see HD movies, low quality movies as well as medium quality movies.

Things I like about this DApp

The fact that this DApp is basically about movies is something I really like already. Movies are just completely amazing. Some can make you smile, some can make you cry for joy, some can make you cry for pain, cry for love and so on. Movies touch you in ways you can hardly put in words. There are some movies that I've watch over and over again and I've not still gotten enough of. So firstly, I like this DApp because it's about movies.

Another thing I like about this DApp is the fact that educational videos are free to stream. You don't have pay anything. This tells you that this DApp is trying to promote education. There's a need to learn. That's how we can become a better people. It's really nice that the educational videos are free.

It's really an added advantage that this DApp is on the blockchain. Hence, every movie you upload on it or stream is very secured. As we all know that the blockchain is very secured.

And the fact that one can earn cryptocurrency (Flix token) by watching videos is really incredible. It's something I really like about this DApp.

Things I don't like about this DApp

I think that generally, there are not many movies on CryptoFlix for now. Perhaps in the nearest future, we would see more movies and educational videos. CryptoFlix looks so much like a work in progress. But I think that the idea is great, and that in no long time, all the issues here and there on the DApp would be addressed.

Another thing that I don't really like about this DApp is the fact that only educational videos are free. It would really be nice if CryptoFlix could add two or more featured movies for free, as this would really encourage users to start. This has always been a nice strategy for businesses and projects, because as we all know people really love free things. And before they know what's going on, they are stuck, and in love with the platform and wouldn't mind paying a bit to get more.

Conclusion

I think that it's really amazing that one can be rewarded with crypto currency (Flix token) for streaming movies. This is really nice. The security of the uploaded movies cannot be worried about, because it's on the blockchain.

The future of this DApp is really very bright and promising. With continuous effort, in the nearest future, the number of users of this DApp would increase tremendously.

Stars - I would be giving this DApp 4/5
