RE: D.Tube 0.6: Pushing it to the limit
Thanks so much for all those amazing features. Am I right in saying you still take 25% ofbthe author rewards because I have To admit that this puts me off uploading by my content as it seems a bit high?
Yes at the moment we are still cashing in 25% beneficiary rewards to the @dtube account. Once we have our SMT it will be 0% for sure. Inbetween, as we scale up like we are, I agree we should lower them or redistribute it in some way. I think making it a default that people can change would be a good compromise, however you need to take into account that we actually give 10% for the storage and 10% for the ask steem api service (search, tag browsing, related videos) and that they need to make money too.
Also you could see it as an investment in the meantime considering we will be distributing some of our SMT tokens to our past users based on the beneficiary rewards paid to @dtube.
The dtube upvotes are so generous I think that this negates the 25% for many of us anyway. With the dtube upvotes, since they are done manually are there better/worse times to be uploading for the team to see and vote for the videos?
More important to get your following over to DTube Danny, we'll be early-fish in a little pond! Worry about the 25% later! Getting your foot in the door early is highly valuable.
