INTRODUCTION TO DESTREAM PLATFORM

As the day and year goes by, New innovations keeps rolling out and the old ones gives way. The coming of the internet, smartphones, smart homes, blockchain, etc are but a few examples of innovative projects that sent many of its old and or traditional counterparts to the dark.

The internet as a major tool in our everyday life is rapidly changing virtually every sector of our lives. For instance, the streaming industry has kept developing just like the gaming industry. Many streaming platforms keeps making waves with major ones like twitch, Youtube, mixer, Facebook, periscope making billions in dollars annually. Streaming has become a full time job for streamers with incomes rolling in from different sectors like advertising, subscription, promotion services and even from donations.

The various streaming platforms mentioned above are independent from each other. Even though there allows streamers in various ways to attract audience and raise funds, Streamers are restricted to a defined transaction per service. As a result, funds are usually received by streamers from different sources with each source having its own unique charges and rules of engagement. This method of operation by these various platforms compares streamers to run different accounts with different platforms of which they are usually charged different commissions. These situations obviously does not allow streamers to stay focused on their work as they will have to be switching from one account to another.

From the angle of those who reward streamers, the unavailability of a universal financial ecosystem leaves them with no choice but to transfer funds from one account to another. Many a times, a good number of audience who may have wished to reward streamers backs off in other to avoid the task of manually transferring funds from one account or another. As a result, the streamer ends up loosing a reward. In the past, should there have existed a universal financial ecosystem for the streaming and or internet community in general, the above problems and or challenges would have been averted.

Hopefully, content creation and interaction with viewers by streamers is finally going to be simple, with financial transactions becoming an integral part of of the market. Thanks to a team of professionals who envisioned these possibilities and went ahead to birth DeStream platform.
