Contentos Blessed by Samsung, Offering Decentralized Content to Billions

in hive-175254 •  5 years ago  (edited)


COS.tv is the flagship DApp by Contentos.


With millions of users, Contentos is the largest decentralized content platform focused on streaming and visual content. The protocol’s flagship end-user service, COS.tv, allows users to generate engaging content and get rewarded in COS tokens.

The bulk of the protocol’s user base is sourced from key partnerships which enable features of COS.tv to be available as a white label solution to any existing content platform, regardless of its media format or scale of usage. The protocol’s earlier adopters includes apps like Cheez, PhotoGrid, and LiveMe, which collectively support a user base of over 30 million, making COS the most dominant decentralized content token.

A Small Step for Contentos, A Major Leap for Blockchain

Today, Samsung announced the acceptance of COS.tv to its DApp Ecosystem. COS.tv is the first content DApp making its into Samsung’s ecosystem, potentially gaining exposure to the billions of Samsung smartphones used across the globe.

Today’s primary apps are content platforms, however, they are all centralized. The team at Contentos has managed to make a major move that not only legitimizes the usage of blockchain technology for enhancing content experiences, but is also onboarding the mass of consumers onto a tokenized ecosystem.

As recent Samsung phones come with blockchain wallets, the path to onboarding retail users is eased. Once users start enjoying the content experiences on COS.tv, the COS token would become the first token held by tens of millions of content consumers. While this certainly multiplies the aggregate user base of the Contentos protocol, it also breaks the ice towards tokenization in general.

Binance's venture arm has a stake in Contentos, and COS trades on Binance.

Contentos is Working with Theta

Theta is a decentralized content delivery network (CDN) targeted at videos. Given that induction into the Samsung ecosystem will bring a rapid surge in COS.tv usage, the startup will face unexpected spikes in demand. This is where Theta plays a role in streamlining scalability while also becoming owners in the distribution of global content.

Theta, which has investments by Samsung NEXT, allows users to offer computational resources, which are then applied to content delivery. Contentos announced that it shook hands with Theta this week. Thus, by working with Theta, Contentos empowers users to:

  • Control value of content
  • Be in control of content distribution

Rather than merely accepting the status quo of media, controlled by a few, content consumers can now be the masters of the content they consume, without having to give up any of their content habits.

Contentos & Chainlink Accelerate Bigger Paychecks for Creators

While Content protocol is handing users the ability to sign off on the value of content, it remains challenging to evaluate what content is exactly worth. A new partnership with Chainlink, announced today, paves a path for decentralized value assessment of content through Chainlink’s oracle system.

Oracles will generate on-chain data, implicating the value of content based on various value metrics that may range from reach, engagement, shares, and off-app exposure. Factors like these would enable content consumers to make an educated assessment of content value, enabling talented creators to earn more.

A Well-Executed Expansion

Joining the Samsung ecosystem is a powerful opportunity for any development and natrually, an exciting time for all associated stakeholders.

However, rather than jumping into the great opportunity unprepared and losing the ability to materialize the value at hand, Contentos announced a triumvirate of collaborations to ensure its ready to squeeze out every inch of advantage Samsung is offering.

This has been a record week for Contentos:

  • Scalability & user empowerment with Theta
  • Improved user & creator experiences with Chainlink
  • Mass global exposure from Samsung

I checked (cos.tv). In my opinion, cos.tv is very suitable for uploading contents related to crypto.

I love samsung products because they usually come with up necessary updates when required, even if I don't have one now I hope to get one very soon.

True, and the company's also very progressive in terms of blockchain integration.

Yes, they are good at what they do.

It's accessible on the menu bar of the index page.



I think Huawi is the best!

That's debatable. 😅

I would like to know more about Concentos , Is it a good platform for us too?

Totally.
Like Steemit, but for videos.

I have just signed in on that platform, it's only for videos but I will try to make some and upload it there.

Interesting post. Thanks for sharing, I am going to check it out and research more.

I'm actually just hearing about contentos for the first time and I love the fact that it pays user back for their activities via COS tokens. But I still don't understand if the project is sponsored by SAMSUNG... I will love it if you make this more explicit.

Wow! This is really gonna make a lot of sense and I won't be surprised if it's crypto worth or value increases and I hope it meets more exchanges in the future.

Thanks for sharing this great post with love from @hardaeborla in courtesy of @crypto.piotr ❤️💕❤️💕❤️❤️💕

I check the site, and the speed of streaming is fast!

Hi @hatu, great article. What is most interesting is to see how the big brands are getting closer to blockchain technology ... Could it be that in the future each company will manage its token?

Welcome to Project HOPE!
