Incentives & Benefits

I would very much like to see direct embedded content based on D-Tube, the decentralized video sharing platform. The platform offers content creators the benefits of security and is censorship resistant. As the platform continues to develop, it may be able to offer mechanisms that enable monetization of content as well. For example, content creators could publish a range of materials free of charge and other materials under different pricing schemes. Consumers could have the option purchase on a per item basis or elect to subscribe to a range of other content. Payment for this content could be enabled within Steemit itself and thus provide a friction-less purchase and compensation scheme. Furthermore, creators would have a foundation upon which they can establish viable income streams and consumer would have ready access to a broad range of content.

Tight integration between Steemit and D-Tube could offer additional collaborative benefits such as live streaming of sporting events, concerts, etc. I can imagine tremendous opportunities for both content creators and consumers in this scenario, it's a win-win.
