1.BitTorrent To Start Internal Testing of Its Social Streaming Platform BLive
BitTorrent, the biggest P2P sharing system of the world, has recently announced that internal testing of its social streaming platform, which joins blockchain technology with a community live streaming application is about to start. While an official date is not revealed, the procedure is set to begin within the next few weeks. The News is published on BitTorrent Medium post on Aug 28, 2019.
As per medium post “With BitTorrent Live, or B Live, you can create live video content, connect with people who offer the same passions, and potentially gain by communicating your innovativeness and find friends around the world.”
The new platform BLive will have a video streaming program and a messaging system. BTT tokens will be used to make payments or gifts within the ecosystem.
BLive will have a wide scope of features, including sound/video livestreams, a real-time instant messaging system that allows various users to communicate and collaborate, and deposit/withdrawal services of BTT and other cryptocurrencies.
Justin Sun, founder of TRON and CEO of BitTorrent said,“With the continuous growth of telecommunication technology and social media, livestreams have gained a tremendous edge and have become the dark horse of online communication. “It gives rise to outstanding content creators who have thousands of followers but don’t get their fair share of advertisements and virtual gifts.”
Three Stages of BLive
Stage 1: Alpha version-Estimated time of completion: Q3, 2019.
Stage 2: Beta version-Estimated time of completion: end of Q4 2019.
Stage 3: Full version-Estimated time of completion: end of Q1 2020.
BitTorrent Live is set to be a problematic platform that means to change the manner in which that people manage live streaming. It needs to decentralize how this market works so that people will have more opportunity to devour media.
