Alive
Decentralized live streaming protocol on IPFS and Skynet
Stream the way you want
Alive is built as a live streaming protocol that is actually decentralized which any video DApp can take advantage of. Choose your favorite DApp and file sharing protocol to stream to.
Communicate freely
Stream your content and interact with your viewers without worrying about arbitrary censorship as Alive does not the authority to ban anyone on the immutable blockchains.
Highly scalable
Alive is not limited to the scalability of a single blockchain as it is designed to be built on multiple blockchains. Your video streams are spread out across different IPFS/Skynet nodes around the world too.
Instant stream archive availability
Just missed a stream from your favourite streamers? Stream archives of ended on-chain Alive streams are made available instantly so that you can watch it immediately.
Moderate your own chat
The decentralization of Alive extends to live chat such that streamers and streamer-approved moderators are the ones that have moderation powers to keep the chat clean.
Developer friendly
Alive uses HLS to deliver streams, the industry leading communication protocol used by many video players. All it takes to deliver Alive streams is just using m3u8 playlists provided by Alive-enabled API nodes.
