We are not a competitive for Youtube, Vimeo and so on.

We are competitive for platforms, who has paid live video streaming service. Like Twitch, Mixer, AfreecaTV, and so on. These incumbent providers take away ~30-50% (sometimes even more) of the content creator's revenue and therefore such platform operates mostly on the "entertaining" business because for other possible users it is simply not a good business.

We will compete these incumbent platforms because our fee would be much lesser: 16%. A much lesser commission will be a much better deal for content creators who use the traditional platforms, and at the same time it would open the door for other content creators who wouldn't use such expensive platform, and nowadays they need to use multiple platforms in order to do so. Furthermore LivePod will 100% respect its users' privacy and implement E2EE.

.:. Cap Compensated Discount Sale .:.
A private sale is a limited event where an upcoming ICO sells its tokens to a number of larger investors behind closed doors. This model became common. However, this is a small stepout from the classical structure, where the ICO community supports the viable projects. We will combine these two elements.
We hold a private sale round, after that we offer the same significant discounts for the ICO community in the early stages of the crowdsale. And as the token sale comes nearer to the hard cap, we decrease the discount rate.
