Vimm is a live streaming platform that takes out the middleman so viewers and creators don’t have to pay enormous fees on tips and subscriptions. This creates a more healthy ecosystem for streamers, giving each creator a fair opportunity to generate revenue by doing something they love.
It has been an amazing journey so far. On July 1st 2018, the Vimm.TV alpha was made public. After a month of real world testing, trying to break our own platform and learning from our mistakes, we have now reached a stage where we are proud to officially introduce Vimm.tv to the Steemit community. Everyone within the Vimm team would like to thank early adopters who gave feedback and sent bug reports so far, we understand community is key and we greatly appreciate all of your ideas and help. Your feedback combined with the dedication of our development team is what allows us to improve Vimm at such a fast pace.
Reaching out to the Steemit community was the first thing that came to mind while brainstorming crowdfunding ideas. Running a live streaming platform comes with costs, and with your help, we’re attempting to raise enough money to cover for the first six months of deployment, and pay our developers. This money will allow us to keep the platform running and accelerate the process of creating, testing, polishing and releasing new features. If we reach our goal, we’re going to expand our coverage to servers located around the world to provide the viewers and streamers with the best possible experience.
If you haven’t joined the ALPHA yet, head to Vimm.TV and get your account today! The new leaderboard season is starting on August 1st and it is your chance to start competing for your Masters badge. Check out our last post for more details on the leaderboard.
Funding Goal
Your contributions will help us cover development costs and server costs for the first phase of deployment. With your help, we'll also be able to hire more developers and properly reward early adopters of the platform.
Costs
Server costs (First phase of deployment => 4 ingest servers => US West, US East, EU West & EU Central) ≈ $7,000.00
Development costs (hiring developers, graphic designers and writers) ≈ $3,000.00
Phase #1 of Deployment
Road Map to Vimm.TV Beta
Below is a list of features that are going to be implemented, with your help, within the next 6 months. These are the basic features we want to have available before transitioning to the BETA cycle.
You can follow the development progress on our public Trello board.
Delegation & Rewards
If you would like to get rewarded while supporting the Vimm project, you can delegate Steem Power to the @vimm account and receive a passive income from the rewards generated with your Steem Power. You will receive a payout every 7 days after you’ve been a delegator for at least a week. Payouts will be based on the size of your delegation.
i.e. If you’re delegating 5% of total delegations, you will be getting 5% of the total delegators reward pool on each payout.
Your delegations will allow us to rewards streamers with bigger upvotes and grow @vimm’s own SP to help with sustainability. You can take your delegation back at any time so there is no risk attached to it. You can try it, see if you’re satisfied with your profits and decide where you want to go from there!
As always,
thank you for being part of this incredible journey!
If you're looking to get a return on your investment, delegation is probably the better option. There will be an update post about delegations within the next week to give you a more detailed explanation of how the payouts are set up and how much you can expect to get from it.
I think the coolest feature that vimm has is the hosting feature, comparable with the one on Twitch. Further you can see the features in development here: https://trello.com/b/mKdS8NHz/vimmtv
But hey, why choose when you can stream on both! :D
Thank you so much for the support @foreveraverage! It's really an honor to have you streaming on Vimm almost everyday. Keep the good content coming broski!
Any project that removed middle man , I support that project that project , I am
Sure this will be success ful , thank you bro for this update , I want to work with you let’s see how we can work
Is it possible to get a feature/fact list that can help Steemiens to easily make informed decisions about which video platform best suits their needs. I guess that would be a quick comparison sheet with dlive, dtube and Vimm.
I dived into posting on Dtube and then realised they delete old content which is a deal breaker for me so now I post primarily on Dlive.
