Flixxo - Decentralized video distribution

in flixxo •  7 years ago 

Monetize your content, using the tried and tested peer to peer protocol of BitTorrent. Get paid for Your content, rather than lining the pockets of faceless corporations. In the days of old you might have to suck huge you know what’s to get on TV. In recent times you would upload to a video hosting platform and get adverts all over your video, or have it taken down at the slightest whiff of copyright infringement.

Now you can get paid directly for your content using modern technology. The less middle men between you and your audience, the more value flows between. You earn digital tokens (Flixx), your audience sees your latest content (cat memes / gyrating in a bikini / and everything in between). Users who host for other people also get a share of the rewards, by lending their bandwidth and storage space.

Imagine you have created a masterpiece video that has gone viral and you have got 1 Billion Likes, how much will the sharing platform give you, $10, $0? Just look at the value of this post compared to the number of views, if I had published this article anywhere else I would have got a big fat 0. Cryptocurrency and decentralization works, we are all living proof of that.

Do advertisers interrupt you and take away your attention while you are watching your favourite program, how much do they pay for the privilege? Nothing!!! They should be paying you if they want your time, with Flixxo this is possible. Sit there and watch all the adverts for slimming products, and watch the pounds fly in, watch an advert for a new sports car and supplement your income towards that goal.

Check out Flixxo’s whitepaper

There are other projects in the space and they are all helping you to get value flow between content creators and their audience. The future should be full of people creating value, rather than having parasites feeding off the value of others doing next to nothing. There is room for all of these projects, some may fail, some may be the next Google or Amazon. Make sure to check them out.

In case you would like to waste your time on an advert and not get paid for it, I’ve found one that is 24 hours long

I'm an investor in this project which seems very similar:

(it's now called k.im)

Wow looks slick!

Why is Flixxo different than DTube? They both seem to serve the same purpose. Post video's and get paid in cryptocurrency.

As I understand it, DTube is using IPFS, Flixxo uses Bittorrent. From a user perspective it's not much different, but with Flixxo which isn't yet released you can get paid for seeing adverts and hosting other peoples video too. It's a bit like restaurants you can go to multiple ones or stick to one :)

This post is restoring my faith in humanity. You saw flixxo for what it is too. I like that. Cheers!
