There’s never been more video being uploaded and watched online than right now. You can pretty much find anything you want. Yet the majority of what you see is determined by what’s going to make the video platforms and advertisers the most money. That’s why you’ll often hear alternative news media, LGBTQ, outdoors & hunting channels etc. complaining that they’re either not able to monetize their videos or they’re not given a fair shot in recommendation algorithms.

Verasity will be different.

Thanks to the power of blockchain technology we’re flipping the system on its head. On our next-generation video sharing platform, advertisers reward viewers — if they choose to watch adverts. In turn viewers reward creators. This means that it’s the viewers who’ll decide what content is worth. No longer will creators need to worry about being demonetized if their content doesn’t represent the thoughts and beliefs of a platform or advertisers. We’re bringing creators and viewers closer together.

Verasity is a place where both viral and specialist videos can coexist. Whether you’re after that cat video that everyone’s talking about or a review of a niche racing drone — you’ll be able to find it. Niche video content doesn’t have to mean poor-quality content. Let’s say a creator’s made the ultimate series on how-to build a successful startup brewery. Whilst only a relatively small number of people might want to watch that, for them it’s worth its weight in gold. Our aim is to build a place where people can come and watch what matters to them. As long as it’s legal, Verasity won’t be saying what should and shouldn’t be on the platform.

As you’d expect, you’ll be able to watch crypto videos on Verasity. But we know you love lots of other things too. That’s why we’re wanting to encourage the uploading of entrepreneurial videos, health and fitness, educational videos, tech news, gaming, alternative news media incl. left and right wing bias, non-mainstream news sources, alternative sports, and yes even some Lambo videos.

Our dream is for Verasity to be a place for great premium content. It doesn’t matter whether that’s from a huge or small channel as long as it’s good quality. It’s up to you what you upload on Verasity but we’ll incentivise certain types of creators to upload video content to start with. Eventually we’d love Verasity to be a place when you can watch everything from Vlogs to pay-per-view sports, films, TV series, or documentaries.

The sky really is the limit. Especially when you consider the Spark Marketplace. This a feature on Verasity which allows a creator to put up part of their channel on the marketplace and allow users to purchase it. The creator gets a lump sum of VERA to help fund a project or grow their channel. The users who own the smart-contracts receive a portion of the channel’s revenue until they sell them. Our aim is for production studios to fund new films and TV series through the marketplace. Imagine backing what you love and being able to receive rewards off the back of its success.

For too long now existing platforms have decided what is right and what is wrong. From a tone point of view Verasity is going more down the Reddit moderation angle. As long as what you’re uploading isn’t illegal, copyright infringing, or directly attacking someone etc then the community will decide what content flourishes or on the other hand flounders.

Verasity is a new breed of online video platform with an inclusive ecosystem that’s designed to keep as much value in the community as possible. We’re aiming to create a place where no matter who you are, what you like to watch, or what you believe in you can watch high-quality, premium, online video.
