RE: Web 3.0 Powered by Blockchains - Let's Talk About It
Agreed. Bitchute is becoming popular among authors who are too un-PC for YouTube these days. It's too bad that Bitchute users are totally dependent on the website. It is in reality a centralized service.
The problem with torrents is that if people stop using a certain torrent it can disappear without anyone seeding it. Just a quick thought: Perhaps the Steem blockchain could be used to reward users somehow for seeding files to keep them available. Integrating a torrent client with Steem front ends would enable Steem user to make posts that show videos.
That's what 3speak is working toward. Incentives for data storage.
BitChute
BitChute is a video hosting service founded in 2017. It was created to allow video uploaders to avoid content rules enforced on other platforms, such as YouTube. The platform accommodates far-right individuals and conspiracy theorists; with the Southern Poverty Law Center saying the site hosts "hate-fueled material". Some creators who have been banned or had their channels barred from receiving advertising revenue ("demonetized") on YouTube have migrated to BitChute.At launch, the site described itself as using peer-to-peer WebTorrent technology.
