Over the years, we have seen different video streaming platform surfacing. All of them have helped to make streaming more efficient and possible.
This can be defined as a method of transmitting or receiving data (especially video and audio material) over a computer network as a steady, continuous flow, allowing playback to start while the rest of the data is still being received.

After #dlive left the steem blockchain, #Vimm.tv came on board. They have proven to be a great service but not everyone knows about them. I Would love to see more campaign/contest/promotion going on. We need to see Vimm.tv traffic spontaneously increasing.
Vimm.tv has given steam Streamers the privilege to enjoy streaming service after #dlive left. They have filled the void and have helped to improve the blockchain. Vimm.tv have also help to bring more engagement to the Steem/Vimm.tv platform through various means. With this in place, I am rating them 4/5.
