What Is a Decentralized Video Platform?
A decentralized video platform runs on a public blockchain and distributed storage (IPFS) instead of one company's servers. Your videos can't be removed at a whim, and viewer support becomes crypto rewards.

YouTube controls the rules, monetization, and what gets shown. On a decentralized platform, content lives on a public blockchain — no demonetization or de-platforming by a central operator. Viewer upvotes are your reward.
How it works (Hive + IPFS)
Metadata (titles, comments, votes) lives on the Hive blockchain; the video itself lives on IPFS. Nothing is held hostage by a single company — it's open and portable.
