DECENT is a new decentralized media platform which aims to take on the likes of iTunes and Netflix. Although it has some similarities to Steemit, it is really not a direct competitor as their is more of a focus on premium content and professional publishing rather than social content sharing.
After a long wait and frustrating delay due to technical issues, DECENT have finally made their much anticipated (at least by me) crowdsale announcement. The sale will take place on September 10th 2016.
