DTube Coin Airdrop: Claim your account now with your Steem username!
DTube Coin Airdrop: Claim your account now with your Steem username!
Thanks to our wonderful community, the DTube Chain experienced a really strong start with more than 3,000 accounts already created!
Because we value your work, we wish to distribute 50% of the initial token supply to our community, i.e. Steemians who will have claimed their DTube account.
DTube is currently in testnet, but you need to claim your DTube account to participate to the DTube Coin Airdrop at the end of the trial period!
DTube Chain account creation is presently reserved to Steemians. Past this trial period, you won't be able to participate to the airdrop.
Plus, your Steem username won't be protected anymore, someone could claim your username on DTube.
New rules, new DTube blockchain
Last week, DTube v0.9 introduced a ton of exciting updates:
- Post from URL: you can now post videos and livestreams from a URL

Claim your DTube Account and sucbscribe to the DTube Coin Airdrop
DTube Chain is currently on testnet mode. This means at the end of the test, DTube will "reset" the Chain to block #0 (though, you won't have to re-create an account).
At launch, DTube will send DTCs to all DTube Chain account holders through an Airdrop event.
DTube Chain accounts can be claimed for free by all Steem users for a limited period. After that, usernames won't be guaranteed anymore.
Why claiming a DTube Account
DTube Chain is a new blockchain with a new coin (the DTC) and new economics based on sharing and curating content with 100% of curation rewards.
With your DTube account, you are able to publish and curate videos like with Steem. You can also spend your DTC to promote your posts.
What is the DTC? Is it live? Does it hold any value?
DTube Coins (DTC) are testnet coins with no real value and that are not fungible nor tradable.
At the end of the testnet, when the technology is stable enough, we will reset the testnet chain and launch the real DTC economy, starting with 100 Million DTCs.
50 Million DTCs will be distributed to all DTube Chain account holders and the coin shall be easily tradable in the future.
How to claim my DTube account
Thanks god, claiming your DTube account is FREE and SUPER EASY:
Go to https://d.tube and click the "Claim account" then follow the 3 steps carefully.
What if it didn't work ?
If you don't see the popup above, follow this procedure:
1- Clear your browser cache
2- While on DTube, log out your steem account and refresh the page. Then log again to Steem, the pop-up should appear
- The process on a smartphone might not work well (we are working on an update). If you don't see the pop-up, please try it on a desktop computer.
- If you are using Steem Keychain it might also not work smoothly. If so, try connecting directly using the Sign In button on DTube
- If it hasn't worked or if you see an error message, please refresh the page and verify if your account has been created before doing the process again.

FAQ
ACCOUNT CREATION
- I don't see the claim button
Clear your web browser cache and log out of your Steem account and refresh the page. Sign in again to your Steem account and the pop-up to claim your Dtube Account will appear. If on smartphone, try it on a desktop computer. - I went through the process but it didn't work
Try refreshing the page and redo the above procedure - I've lost my keys
DTube Chain uses cryptographic keys as logins. While much more secure than a password, we can't do anything to retrieve your keys if lost.
However, check your "download" folder or file directory if it isn't stored there (look for a .txt file named "dtube_key") - I've created my account and all my videos disappeared
You just need to update your profile with your steem username:
POSTING & VOTING
I posted a video via DTube but it doesn't show on Steem
It is because either of the following reasons:
-You are not logged on Steem. If so, sign in to your Steem account
-You haven't updated your profile with your Steem account (see above)
-Check this video to see how it worksHow do videos rank now ?
Rewards are activated on for all economies (Steem, DTC, Steem Engine) and videos are now ranked only by upvotes on the DTube Chain.I don't want to post or vote on both Steem and Dtube Chain at the same time
Just click on the Steem or DTube logo to put an account on hold
I want to vote with different % on Steem and DTube Chain
On the left menu, click on litlle arrow of the account (Steem or DTube) and choose independently the % of Voting tokens you wish to spend on posts and votes
I don't have enough "bandwidth"
Check if your account shows 100 DTC and just wait, it reloads over time. If you haven't received your initial 100 DTC, please ask the team on DiscordWhat is the difference between Posting a URL and uploading via IPFS
Both ways of publishing a video will activate the token reward mechanism. Posting a URL is
-for curators who want to share content from other platforms
or
-for creators who find it easier or want to activate ads on content they have published elsewhere.
Thanks to its decentralized network, uploading a video on IPFS is for Original Content creators who wish to protect their content from abusive censorship.What platforms are supported for the "Post from URL" feature
Most current video platforms: Youtube, Twitch, Facebook, Instagram, Vimeo, Dailymotion ...
TOKENS
- Will I still earn Steem tokens?
Of course, you can post, vote and earn Steem tokens as usual with DTube. Just verify that you are signed up to your Steem account on Steem - Is DTube leaving Steem ?
Not at all, DTube is just adding new blockchains to Steem on the interface: DTC but also Steem Engine tokens such as PAL or WEED.
We have been working pretty hard to ensure both chains (DTube and Steem) interoperability :)

Token generation event roadmap
DTC economy launch will follow these 4 steps:
1- DTube Chain testnet (live since June, 25): Launch of the testnet. Account creation is reserved for Steem account holders and everyone receives 100 (test) DTC.
2- Open account creation (August): After this period, account creation will open to everyone in and outside the Steem community
3- Token Sale (Q3): DTube will conduct the sale of 25 Million of DTCs through several Initial Exchange Offering (IEO) rounds. This will be your chance to purchase real DTCs
4- Token Launch (Q3): At the end of the token sale, DTube will reset the Chain (keep the accounts) and distribute the initial circulating supply (100 Million DTCs) to DTube Chain account holders (50%), IEO Investors (25%) and Dtube team and contributors (25%)

This is incredible! I am just getting started with d.tube and steem, but it seems that they integrate spectacularly! It’ll be nice to be able to earn two different currencies as well. Diversity is important in any portfolio! Thank you for working so hard! I will be looking forward to the changes as I push forward in my journey here. :)

Awesome work!
Dtube has been a game changer for my channel and my brand. I can't thank you enough for building this platform that allows me to share my content, tip creators and earn on my hard work. The immutability of the blockchain is a huge peace of mind in a world full of censorship and shadow bans. I love Dtube, all the quality content creators who contribute to the ecosystem and the curators who offer the support and motivation for uploading high quality content. Bless everyone and thanks for sharing in this blockchain revolution! Viva La Dtube!

So can you tell us what this will look like? our own scot tube? like will it have videos on the pots will it look liek a steempeak tribe on @steempeak ? @wehomen and @jarvie maybe can tell me
maybe this is the video component of what aggroed was talking about with steem-engine man i am so proud of him as a leader combining all of these steem projects together!
And dont forget @neoxian 's https://neoxian.city !!! I think it will be one of the most successful scotbot communities as its supported by a very successful whale who I believe will be so rich he will be able to keep his scotbot community supported for a long time.
I have already published the tutorial on how to get that up and running! You can read the full thing there: https://steemit.com/dtube/@heimindanger/steem-engine-tokens-dtube-scottube
I am so curious about launching a scottube for the #onelovedtube community 🤔

Resteemed! This is good. I just claimed my account and i have got the 100DTC. Thanks
Check this out @r2cornell @specialgowns @maclevis
omg tokens!!
lulz inorite?!
I am having an issue claiming my id. I logged out of steem id and logged back in so I could see the message. Saved my keys and checked off both statements but the next button cannot be pressed.
Hi! I don't know if you have found a solution since then, but i found what makes problem : I wasn't on my computer used to create my steemit account. Now i am, and everything worked perfectly !
Hi @pipoune
That wasn't the solution for me. I only use the one computer to work on Steem. I have other computers to do other stuff. However I did edit the page so that I could push the button. If you don't know, it is possible to "Inspect" elements on any web page and modify them temporarily on your browser. It just requires a reasonable ability with HTML.
David
Yes, very good idea, i wouldn't have tought of it. :)
Hi, I have the same problem, have you found a solution since then?

I haven't had a response yet. In a couple of days, I will try again. I looked at some of your art. I couldn't believe the Husky
was not a photograph.
There is a movie called Tim's Vermeer (here is the trailer)
Which shows a technique that Johannes Vermeer might have used.
Thank you for your visit and for your suggestion, it is very interesting!!
Really I am excited.What a gorgeous effort it is!I respect to dtube team for give update dtube.
