7+ Blockchain-Based Alternatives To Youtube

By Ade M. Campbell on Ade’s (Crypto) Press

There is new life beyond YouTube and measuring the quality of a video by its hit counter. There’s life beyond wondering just how many subscribers to various channels are ‘real’ or active subscribers — that haven’t just been bought off some freelancer site.

You could try a video-sharing site that lets you see how many votes a video has received, which actually cost something from a viewer to cast.

By all means continue uploading content to YouTube, ensuring viewers sit through the same advertisement once more at the price of their precious time. But, there are sharing site users today who never watch ads (unless they get paid in crypto for doing so) and who get paid more directly.

Also, their uploaded content will not be subject to unexpected subscription alterations, unexplained censorship or outages due to being stored centrally on a Google server somewhere.

These content creators may even be participants in a community-run platform created by, and for, video-sharing enthusiasts.

Welcome to an alternative future both for video streaming and video creation thanks to the advent of Bitcoin, Ethereum and the blockchain technology behind these more decentralized networks.
