“We are super excited and happy with the results of the main token sale event! This is an outcome of a carefully executed day-to-day operating of the highly professional international team. There is already a lot to be proud of: we held the world’s’ very first esports tournament in CS:GO with crypto prize pool – Play2Live CryptoMasters. Peer-to-peer CDN technology tested during the tournament allowed us to s********* 30% of traffic per separate stream. That means everyone, including the viewer, will be able to earn with us. Beta version with this monetization channel will already be available this summer, and our team is ready to deliver all the unique features that we’ve promised in our White Paper”, comments Alexey Burdyko, CEO and Founder at Play2Live.

Founded in 2017, Play2Live aims to merge blockchain technology with streaming services. P2L will have 15 sources of revenue, which is three times more compared to the streaming industry leaders. Streamers will be able to monetize their content in 11 ways versus 4-5 available on existing platforms. They can earn from the first stream, regardless of their audience size, as well as boost their audience via interactive tasks during the streams, betting service, enhanced chat communication and other engaging activities. Viewers will have 5 monetization tools – compared to zero elsewhere in streaming industry. They can earn by watching adverts, performing tasks set by streamers, voting for content, sharing their internet bandwidth via peer-to-peer CDN.
