Uplive till date has paid over $100 million in revenue to content creators, processes over $25 million per month in virtual gifts and a global user base of over 70 million people,Uplive is pushing its operation by adopting blockchain for the creation, curation, management and redemption of these virtual gifts
The platform consists of those who are content producers(have a following/userbase and produce desirable content), content consumers(individuals who consume contents from content producers), content curators(their role is to ensure that virtual gifts are not against accepted standards)
