Video Rewards App Kimeo Joins Dash Developer Program — Earn Dash For Browsing Content

— Over 100,000 users will soon be able to earn Dash on the Kimeo Platform as part of #BuildWithDash Campaign.

One of the early promises of blockchain technology has been to democratize the content space and make it equitable and rewarding for creators and viewers alike.

By some estimates, large companies like Youtube pay out less than 70 cents for every dollar they receive in advertising while wielding complete sway over moderation. Only Recently, Youtube removed a large number of videos pertaining to crypto-currencies. While the videos were restored after a global outrage, the incident showcased the power such centralized platforms wield to distribute content.

To bring about transformative change, it is imperative for more companies to build new age content sharing platforms that not only uphold user freedom but can also find innovative ways to engage all three sides of the platform — Consumers, Creators and Advertisers while maintaining a balance.

To achieve all these aims and more, Kimeo — a video app with rewards for everyone was launched by Ajay Pal Singh and his team in 2019. A product of National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar, Ajay pal has had a successful track record as an innovator with entrepreneurial stints in Startup Chile and the Iron Yard Accelerator in USA.

Kimeo leverages the combination of blockchain, cloud and cryptocurrencies, enabling users to get rewarded for adding or consuming content while allowing advertisers to reward people for watching. After a successful initial run, the app and data is currently being moved entirely to the blockchain and IPFS, providing 100% transparency and future proofing the app.
