The moment you’ve been waiting for is now closer than ever, as Verve is now gearing up to launch its MVP!</p><p>Aimed to demonstrate the core functionality of the Verve platform, the MVP will allow users to get to grips with Verve ahead of its public release — while providing the resources creators need to begin leveraging the platform to maximize their revenue and reward their most loyal viewers.</p><p>To help kickstart the platform and reward its earliest adopters, we are launching an early adopter loyalty program, which will provide a dazzling array of rewards to those that stake their VERVE tokens during the participation period.</p><p>Using a tier-based system, the Verve Early Adopter Loyalty Program will provide increasingly attractive rewards to participants based on their tier — with higher tiers and longer-term participants receiving the best rewards.</p><p>Rewards will include burnable NFTs that can be used within the MVP, such as for donations to your favorite streamers and creators, free subscriptions, an array of creator-specific rewards, and much <em>much</em> more!</p><p>The general rules for participation include simply staking your VERVE by the 1st of each month and maintaining that stake until the end of the month to participate in that month’s prize pool. Moreover, everyone who stakes before March 31st and does not unstake or withdraw their rewards until the launch of the MVP will receive a special early adopter badge, as well as a secret reward for the most loyal participants.</p><p>Every month, we’ll provide an overview article detailing the terms and benefits of the loyalty program, since the rewards, qualification requirements, and participation tiers can change from month to month. Stay tuned for more details, we’ve got some truly spectacular rewards lined up!</p><p>The full details for the March rewards will be available shortly!

Others, including TikTok, don’t share ANY advertising revenue with their creators — instead running very limited and selective monetization schemes.</p><p>We find this to be unacceptable. While platforms like YouTube and Twitch have grown to be multi-billion dollar behemoths, the creators that helped them get there have been left shorthanded.</p><p>Verve solves this by sharing the vast majority of the platform’s earnings with content creators and users, while reserving just a relatively small chunk for platform operations, growth, advertising, etc.</p><p>Beyond this, Verve offers an array of innovative tools and features that help creators diversify their revenue streams, better engage with their audiences, control and brand their content/channels, and more.</p><h3>How Does Verve Fit in the Current Ecosystem?</h3><p>The live streaming industry is widely projected to grow at a phenomenal rate in the coming years, and increasingly establish itself as a major content delivery medium — gradually garnering more attention than traditional media and broadcast television.</p><p>However, the rampant growth of centralized platforms threatens to undermine the core tenets that make live streaming so powerful — namely diversity, user focus, community engagement, and a focus on quality — by greedily hoarding the revenue creators generate, placing extreme limitations on their content, and unfairly suppressing the content of some users (i.e. algorithm bias).</p><p>Verve tackles these challenges head-on by leveraging the unique capabilities of the Velas blockchain with a powerful streaming technology suite to provide a platform that creators and their audiences will be proud to call home.</p><h3>Tokenomics</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*lYLawmfxnSlzEun7" /></figure><h3>Token Utility</h3><p>The VERVE token is designed to sit at the crux of the Verve platform and provide one of the main value drivers for creators, users, and advertisers.</p><p>Some of the primary utilities will include:</p><ul><li>Staking to increase Watch-to-Earn percentage, reduce platform ads, and unlock exclusive early-bird rewards (inc badges, NFTs and bonuses).</li><li>Donate to streamers/creators, unlock exclusive features, and incentivize high quality content production.</li></ul><p>As new features, tools, and services are rolled out, the VERVE token will continue to play an integral role in ensuring users are rewarded for their contributions to the platform while baking in systems to ensure demand always exceeds supply.</p><p><strong>Verve Official Socials</strong></p><p><a href="http://vervetv.app/">Website</a> |<a href="https://twitter.com/Verve_TV?s=20"> Twitter</a> |<a href="https://t.me/VerveOfficial"> Telegram</a> |<a href="https://t.me/verveappann"> Telegram Ann</a></p><p><strong>Please note:</strong> in order to be eligible for participation in the IDO, you must follow the KYC guide for each of the corresponding launchpads.</p><p>BSCPAD:<a href="https://bscpad.medium.com/bscpad-kyc-process-16e6a5557138"> KYC GUIDE</a></p><p>VelasPAD:<a href="https://medium.com/@VelasPad/velaspad-kyc-process-c8ecd315d09a"> KYC GUIDE</a></p><p>GameZone:<a href="https://medium.com/@Game_Zone/gamezone-kyc-process-a6719ff2aaf9"> KYC GUIDE</a></p><p>NFTLaunch:<a href="https://medium.com/@nftlaunch/nftlaunch-kyc-process-32a9fad35274"> KYC GUIDE</a></p><p>PulsePad:<a href="https://medium.com/@PulsePad.io/pulsepad-kyc-process-53a95a42ecfc"> KYC GUIDE</a></p><p>MetaVPad:<a href="https://medium.com/@metavpad/metavpad-kyc-process-9cf742e896fd"> KYC GUIDE</a></p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=4dee6fc0af01" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*3Ki4gI5_gO6wSpIRpQ41MA.jpeg" /></figure><p>Few entertainment options have taken off with the velocity and appeal of live streaming. Since the early 2010s, the live streaming space has expanded at a staggering pace, and is currently projected to blossom into a $250 billion industry by 2027 — growing at a whopping 28.1% CAGR over the next five years.</p><p><em>And it’s easy to see why.</em></p><p>The live streaming industry empowers individual content creators and independent studios in a way that has never been seen before — allowing them to engage, monetize, and better cater to their audiences — while better targeting the increasing demographic of computer-savvy and online-oriented viewers.</p><p>But until now, a major problem has been sweeping across the live streaming industry, threatening to limit opportunities for creators, dramatically reduce their revenues, restrict their interaction with their audience, and cut the types of content they can produce.</p><p>In case you haven’t guessed yet, we’re talking about the centralization and monopolization of streaming platforms.</p><p>Today, the vast majority of centralized live streaming platforms all suffer from the same four problems.</p><ul><li><strong>They’re overly limiting:</strong> Content creators must fit within a tight, albeit undefined mold, or risk being demonetized or hidden by the algorithm.</li><li><strong>Creators don’t own their content:</strong> Most streaming platforms have clauses that clearly state that the service owns any non-copyright content uploaded to the platform. This issue heavily restricts the ways that creators can monetize, brand, and advertise their content.</li><li><strong>Creators are shorted-handed: </strong>Right now, the vast majority of live streaming platforms heavily short-hand their creators by keeping between 45–75% of the revenue generated through in-stream advertisements. To obtain a more favorable split (if at all possible), users typically need to meet extremely stringent requirements.</li><li><strong>Viewers are not rewarded: </strong>While many platforms at least allow creators to earn revenue from their content, the viewers are left short-handed. No major live streaming platform currently rewards viewers like Verve will for engaging with their favorite creators, or spending their precious time using the platform.</li></ul><h3>Disrupting a Burgeoning Market with Verve</h3><p><a href="http://vervetv.app/">Verve</a> is designed to address these challenges and provide the fertile soil creators need to grow their audience, optimize their content, better engage with their followers, and maximize the revenue they can earn.</p><p>By leveraging the unique properties of blockchain technology, combined with a creator-centric, user-friendly front-end, Verve looks to topple all the obstacles previously put up by last-generation centralized platforms to provide a solution that gives back to the users and provides creators with the resources they need to thrive.</p><p>As demand for live-streaming and independently made content rises, so too does the need for a platform that rewards the efforts of the hardworking individuals that help fuel and support this rapidly growing market. This is exactly what Verve is built to accomplish — by returning content ownership to the creators and leveraging the future-proof capabilities of arguably the world’s most advanced blockchain.</p><p><em>Here’s a sneak peek of what you can expect:</em></p><h3>Creator-focused</h3><p>Whether you’re a video gamer, musician, podcast host, artist, or any other major talent, Verve puts you up front and center, and gives you the tools and resources you need to captivate your audience, monetize your content, and manage your brand.</p><p>This includes a stream mirroring features that allow you to mirror your streams from existing platforms like Twitch, TikTok, and YouTube to consolidate your existing users to Verve. On top of this, powerful NFT creation tools allow you to capture, distribute and market your most memorable moments and better incentivize your most loyal viewers.</p><p>And with a range of interaction options built directly into the service, content creators can better engage and grow their audience.</p><h3>Diversify Your Revenue</h3><p>At Verve, we understand that not every streamer will be able to earn a stable income from advertising views alone, and recognize that not all types of content are advertiser friendly.</p><p>Nonetheless, Verve gives content creators the opportunity to monetize their content in the ways that they see fit, whether that be through donations, subscription-based content, sponsorships, advertising arrangements, partnerships, or something else.</p><p>We don’t put up barriers to content creators that simply want to earn revenue from their hard work. Quite the opposite! We actually provide the resources they need to attract suitable financing.</p><h3>Powered by Velas</h3><p>Verve is being built on <a href="https://velas.com/">Velas</a>, a highly efficient, massively scalable blockchain that can support hundreds of thousands to potentially millions of simultaneous users.</p><p>This provides a number of advantages over existing streaming services, including a dramatically improved user experience, near negligible transaction fees, practically instant transaction finalization, and more.</p><p>Thanks to Velas, both creators and viewers will be able to claim their earnings whenever is most convenient, without needing to wait for specific thresholds to be met.</p><p>Likewise, the top-performing creators will be able to take their content ownership and branding even further with their own Velas-powered .verve subdomain, helping them better appeal to their target demographics.</p><h3>Watch-to-Earn</h3><p>Although content creators are the primary drivers behind the meteoric growth of modern-day streaming platforms, the viewers are playing an increasingly important role in the success of their favorite creators and platforms.</p><p>At Verve, we believe this contribution should be recognized and rewarded. This is why we’re set to allow those that view and engage with the platform regularly to earn a kick-back from their efforts — helping the most dedicated members earn revenue from their attention and interactions.</p><p>As the platform grows and develops, the range of opportunities available to viewers will grow in tow. We have plans to provide viewers multiple ways of earning revenue through viewing, sharing, engaging, and curating content!</p><p>Please only follow the official Verve links to stay up to date on developments and updates:</p><p><a href="http://vervetv.app/">Website</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/Verve_TV?s=20">Twitter</a> | <a href="https://t.me/verveappann">Telegram</a></p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=600144b010ec" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>
