RE: DLive | Transparency Report #1 - April 19, 2018

This is good news overall. But if there is no beneficiary cut, then how will it be possible to maintain servers and keep videos hosted in the future as the platform expands and marketshare is potentially lost to apps that provide longer storage of videos for "free"? There is no free lunch as far as content storage goes, and the only foreseeable way to do so would be to either have people pay for it themselves, which consumers simply don't ever do in an age of abundant "free" hosting from other services, or to have the team pay for it out of pocket, or implement a cut in the future that goes directly towards server costs.

Hello @charitybot,

In the future DLive will be funded by our own SMT token structure and offering premium services.

Thank you for your feedback!

I have been wondering about this as well, and would love some transparency on this subject. Dlive servers cant be sustainable off of just the curation reward from upvoting people. This is something that worries me as well.
