Hello BitcoinTalk, Meet LBRY Officially!
LBRY, an open source, and community-driven digital content marketplace (think BitTorrent + Bitcoin), is officially launching our ANN thread on BitcoinTalk with the release of our protocol specification (https://lbry.tech/spec (https://lbry.tech/spec)) and technical resource site at https://lbry.tech (https://lbry.tech). See our blog post for the breakdown: https://lbry.com/news/lbrytech (https://lbry.com/news/lbrytech). We’ve been in Production, with a working app/protocol since June 2016, so we are in no way a new project or some scam!  Unlike most blockchain companies, we did no ICO, no token sales to VCs, and have spent zero energy hyping or pumping the price of our coin. We provide full transparency of our premine at https://lbry.com/credit-reports (https://lbry.com/credit-reports). Meet the team here: https://lbry.com/team (https://lbry.com/team)

We are currently supported on Desktop/Android and have a web presence through https://spee.ch (https://spee.ch). In the first half of 2019, we’ll be launching a web-based version of LBRY as well. Content you ask? We’ve got tons of it on our network (over 750K published items) ranging from movies, videos, images, games, documents and more! We have content from top creators on YouTube (https://lbry.com/youtubers (https://lbry.com/youtubers)) and even have a major movie studio publishing films like Howl (lbry://howl (https://open.lbry.com/howl)), starring James Franco, and It's a Disaster (lbry://itsadisaster (https://open.lbry.com/itsadisaster)), starring David Cross!

You can see our previous unofficial post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1541268.new#new (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1541268.new#new). We will be using this thread to post updates from the LBRY team, address questions/concerns/bugs, and get feedback from the BCT community on what they feel is important for LBRY to be successful as a media sharing platform. Want to chat with us in real time? You can find us on Discord at https://chat.lbry.com (https://chat.lbry.com)

Want to skip the rest and get right into it, download our Desktop/Android app here: https://lbry.com/get (https://lbry.com/get). In order to earn LBRY rewards (https://lbry.com/faq/rewards), users do need to be verified via one of three methods - phone, credit card, or chat.

Want to see what’s coming in 2019, check out our roadmap: https://lbry.com/roadmap (https://lbry.io/roadmap)

Want to get involved? Refer a friend via your referral URL/email (see Invites in Desktop app) or get your favorite creator to sync their YouTube channel: https://lbry.com/youtube (https://lbry.com/youtube). Have an awesome idea in mind, reach out to us at https://lbry.fund (https://lbry.fund)

What is LBRY?
LBRY is a protocol providing a fully decentralized network for the discovery, distribution, and payment of digital content (or any data). The LBRY blockchain provides a global namespace and database of content available on the network including searchable content metadata, signed publisher identities, rights, and access rules. Included in the metadata is a pointer to a decentralized data network like BitTorrent. The blockchain also provides publisher identities, human-friendly URLs (e.g. lbry://@MinutePhysics/magnetic-levitation), and a payment mechanism.

LBRY Rewards - LBC for using the app!
In order to earn LBRY rewards (https://lbry.com/faq/rewards), users do need to be verified via one of three methods - phone, credit card, or chat. Users can earn LBC weekly via featured content, as well as by publishing, creating a channel, subscribing, downloading, inviting other users and much more!

Decentralized Youtube + more
LBRY is a community-controlled alternative to censorious, rent-extracting platforms like YouTube or Apple’s store. You are likely already familiar with the countless controversies over videos being demonetized for containing content unfriendly to advertisers or simply being contrary to the political sentiment de jour. Even more important than demonetization, YouTube takes 45+% of the revenue earned by creators. Does that seem the right amount to simply move a file from place A to place B? With LBRY, creators receive 100% of the price they choose and those rules cannot be changed without community consensus. Know a creator you’d like to see on LBRY, send them over to https://lbry.com/youtube (https://lbry.com/youtube)!

Earn With Youtube Sync
LBRY provides a syncing program for YouTubers. YouTube creators can keep their content synced with the LBRY network and earn crypto with no extra work. Rewards are based on total number of YouTube subscribers and are paid yearly. More at https://lbry.com/youtube (https://lbry.com/youtube).


https://spee.ch/7/content-freedom.jpeg

Spee.ch - Web Presence for LBRY
spee.ch is an Imgur or Streamable-like web-app that reads and writes from the LBRY network. Anyone can now host and hotlink images permanently on LBRY through spee.ch  Share memes, videos and animated gif easily with spee.ch fast and quick upload and publish. LBRY is committed to free speech and fights vigorously for online freedoms. Any free content you can access on URLs like lbry://jiggytom, you can find on spee.ch at https://spee.ch/jiggytom (https://spee.ch/jiggytom).

Spee.ch has also been designed to be configurable and self-hostable (see https://github.com/lbryio/spee.ch). So it’s possible to set up your own spee.ch instance and restrict who can publish and/or only render your channel or a subset of channels. This comes with the added benefit that it stores your content on a decentralized network of computers -- the LBRY network. Your assets are stored in multiple locations without a single point of failure.

LBRY will be releasing a fully-featured web-app that matches the functionality of the desktop app (https://lbry.com/get (https://lbry.com/get)) in the first half of this year. You can sign up at https://lbry.tv (https://lbry.tv)


File Types on LBRY?
The LBRY protocol supports any type of digital file and currently, the Desktop app can open many formats directly inside the viewer. This includes videos (H264 support currently), images, GIFs, audio (mp3s/wav/flac), documents (txt, json, csv, pdf), 3d files (STL), and games (LBRY format), Otherwise, the content can always be download locally and opened externally.

Downloading Content
Currently, the default mode of viewing content on LBRY is by downloading it. In the future, we will offer streaming support for video/audio with the option to save locally. By downloading the content and leaving LBRY open, you help share it as well and strengthen the network. Becoming a seed does require your ports to be opened (3333 TCP / 4444 UDP)

Mining
Most mining for LBRY is performed via specialized ASIC and FPGA machines. GPU mining may be viable, but unlikely to be profitable at this time. See https://lbry.com/faq/mining-credits (https://lbry.com/faq/mining-credits) or the #mining channel on https://chat.lbry.com (https://chat.lbry.com) for more information.

Happy to see LBRY here and having been part of it for almost 3 years I'm also happy to answer questions!

Currently LBRY can be exchanged on the following big markets:

Bittrex (https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-LBC)
Poloniex (https://poloniex.com/exchange#btc_lbc)
Upbit (https://upbit.com/exchange?code=CRIX.UPBIT.BTC-LBC)

LBRY has been busy building Dapps and filling a void that I feel as a content creator is really needed. The ability to host images and videos on the blockchain is very much needed, as most Crypto IPFS projects are currently a "Walled Garden". But with LBRY and Spee.ch you have accessible URLs and able to embed images. I have never seen anything else like it in crypto, so best of luck on building up the platform and filling actual needs of users.

I wrote about them awhile back and still using their Spee.ch service.

Exactly, the potential of lbry blockchain could be used for content sharing is tremendous. Recently I've just looked about Jelly Beats, It's using LBRY protocol for decentralized music/podcast Dapps. Surely it has a large room to grow.

I did mine from the start and have been following and testing since, must say I'm amazed about these latest versions. They are so fast even with old hardware windows & linux.

Looking at this endless sea of crypto scams it's really nice to see someone actually having a working product, keep up with the good work!

LOL, I hope this 'accumulation' period stays a bit longer, need more cash to buy more.

Have you tried troubleshooting with the provided link?

If you had followed it, and none of them works, try to post your logfile because I believe it the only ways we could examine the problem.

Anyway, if you want to get better and fast responses, try to get help in the discord LBRY server.

I agree on that, but they should also soon focus on new exchanges with more volume, at least they can consider Livecoin exchange (they can add LBRY/USD market) or cryptofacil exchange (partner of Bittrex for Latin Americans) . :)

The project is doing good with all the updates. :)

The old thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1541268.3840) isn't the official announcements thread, and the OP hardly active so it will become hard to manage the thread if there is an update. This is the new official announcement thread started by @Jiggytom the official team of LBRY.

Certain countries are blocked because of rewards abuse. Chat.lbry.com #verification channel is the best bet. But remember, you can use LBRY without the rewards program.

The sample below is of Channel profiles coming soon to the LBRY ecosystem. We'll also have new stream (content claim) attributes for size, content duration, dimensions, and release date. These will make classification much easier, and bring a whole new level to Discovery. We want to create a platform where users choose what they want to watch, and what they feel is great content with their credits. We want it to be controlled by the users, and those making sound transactions on the network...from publishers, miners, end users, hosters, and curators (and who knows where others will play a role?).

Later this year we'll also introduce support (claim level transactions) metadata...so we can do things like commenting, rating, community tagging (choose/build a web of trust)...the possibilities are endless. Also will allow a unique subscription system where creators have access to their subscribers' profile...and they can sign content so only those with X amount of months as a supporter, and X amount of LBC, can have early access to. You can do this on multiple levels, all up to the discretion of the publisher. We'll also have to keep in mind for a subscriber to be able to revoke access to current data (i.e. clear future access to profile)...that's important for user privacy as it's a completely opt-in system.

The topic is a good way to refresh the LBRY project in the year 2019, I appreciated the initiatives of LBRY team so much.
Nevertheless, I would suggest the team to adjust the OP a bit (if they agree with my suggestion).
The link and info to the past topic in bitcointalk forum should be presented in the first lines of the OP, just below the tittle, maybe.
Currently, the info has been presented in the middle of the OP.

You can see our previous unofficial post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1541268.new#new.
I think such adjustment can help new comers, and visitors to have more quickly and easily overview about LBRY project. They just take a glance and know that LBRY is a old project, not a new one, by simply looking at first lines of the OP.

Hello, the ban still works, the residents of the Russian Federation can not confirm the account on the mobile phone, I tried but still does not give the code +7, is there any solution to the problem?

Certain countries are blocked because of rewards abuse. Chat.lbry.com #verification channel is the best bet. But remember, you can use LBRY without the rewards program.

Yes, of course, it's good, I just thought that there are any other restrictions in the work of the countries, well that it was not a political basis, thank you

Yes, it still has a reward program, but it requires verification for a new user. You might don't need verification if you use your old accounts as I did. The rewards are vary depending on the 'job', for the weekly rewards for features content creators is 10 LBC, and others are may vary between 10~100 (?). I suggest to take a look at the nowadays LBRY app, it has significant improvements.

LBRY has a program about Youtube partnership, and if the content creators want to sync their youtube videos to LBRY, sometimes they get a free featured content 'promotion', their videos are listed in the top of the first pages LBRY application, CMIIW. Actually, the reward system within the application varies, you should check the website for faq pages about rewards here https://lbry.com/faq/rewards.

-Can We Watch Something On LBRY Without Downloading The File/Video?

-Any Web Version For LBRY(For Watching)?

Since This Is A Decentralized Network, That Means Nobody Can Censor Anything. How We Deal With Illegal Contents(Pirated Movies,
 Child Porn)?

The LBRY protocol itself is purely decentralized censorship-resistant we can't do anything about it. Nevertheless, an application made by LBRY team arent fully censorship-resistant rather non-arbitrary censorship, its means it follows the US laws since LBRY is based on the US. So, the content within the applications is removed and blocked, but still accessible within the networks which is LBRY protocol.

.But What If In The Future There Are Some Child Porn Mafia That Upload Their Video To
 LBRY, And They Host Their Own Server and Develop Their Own App(Still Based On LBRY Tho). How We Deal With This Kind Of Problem?

What can we do about the child porn that spread in the tor networks, and what can we do about torrent sites that spread a lot of pirated content. Of course, we can't do anything about it, but as good deeds within the tor networks. I know there is a movement called TOR against CP. It is a movement from the tor community to not list any CP sites easily.


-Can We Watch Something On LBRY Without Downloading The File/Video?
I'm afraid no, AFAIK, its meant it that way to make the content availability spread (seed). At least for right now, I'm sure in the feature that will be removed.

-Any Web Version For LBRY(For Watching)?
The complete web-version is coming in the half of 2019, as stated by their promise (https://lbry.tv/). Currently, if you want to watch a content on the web please visit, https://spee.ch/2/jiggytom

-Are The Search Result(On LBRY App) Is All Result? Or It is Just A Fraction Of It?

We still haven't reached that stage. It is indeed a long way, slowly but surely LBRY will be the main attention of the content creators. Right now it isn't 'matured' yet, the project is indeed still at an early age, a large room for development is still needed. The good things are LBRY already have a usable product, that is why it makes a different than other alike projects.

To answer the question about search - we only block the illegal content as we do in other parts of the app (see https://lbry.com/faq/content).  The code for this is also open source: https://github.com/lbryio/lighthouse

We see a future where any can run a search/wallet server, and it would be up to the user to choose which they want to connect to.

Ability to stream without downloading will be coming over the next couple of months

Lbry must promote interest increase token exchange volume,trade,crypto investors,inst  otherwise they will be  delisted fast from overall lack of coin exchange participation.
In that exchanges, the Bittrex violation of TOS are specific -when recognized&determined lack of interest  disregard of the coins valuelisting&liquidity&price
-

as projects show no interest in increasing their exchange coin listings liquidity or keeping high trade interests

 the exchange platforms are so overloaded, they will delist dead coins like lbry quick

Been laughing these fud posts off for a while now, not laughing anymore.
 I won't deny that he is correct. LBRY is pitiful about exchange listings and could very well be removed from those few.

LBRY looks worse than most of the projects that have already delisted!

Great project, great team, great work, but how do you sleep on this slack?
 
Another thought, If they are delisting or is this Insiders Dumping and killing the token price?

To get quick overview of a project bitcointalk is best. Telegram is too noisy to find what you need, I often end up more confused than in the beginning. This is like a trend now that bitcointalk threads are inactive but instant-messaging is proliferating. Maybe people want simply talk with somebody than anything else.

I am using LBRY one time a week to get my 10 coins and I see constant progress, platform has this decentralised feeling yet but works, when you have little patience :)

Are there any good YouTube alternatives? https://d.tube/ is one which seems vaguely decentralized, though its underlying steem and ipfs platforms are naïve "do the first thing which comes to mind" systems. I have zero confidence in the robustness of these systems, and it's not even a "perfect is the enemy of good" situation, since dtube is also pretty janky. It's disappointing, though I guess there just aren't enough people interested in this stuff to put enough man-hours into it.

Dtube is not really a viable alternative and I say that as a massive fan of the Steem platform in general.
You cannot watch videos that are older than 7 days and the underlying system for uploading and automatically converting videos leaves much to be desired.

I think LBRY is doing a much better job in that regard, even though monetization is still somewhat of a problem.
There you can instantly back up your entire Youtube account and receive LBRY credits for it, depending on how many Youtube subscribers you have.

You can easily watch older videos (contrary to Dtube) & people can tip video creators with the free LBRY credits they receive.

Mind you, LBRY is created as a protocol, any service, app or website can make use of LBRY. It's completely open-source as well.

As the team keeps on improving their services, they should look into some of the feedback from the reviews of their app.
Currently, I can say it is fairly decent though there are some clients who are not satisfied with your services, and that's normal.

We all know that most apps in google play really ask permission to our personal files, and sometimes I don't install it as well.
But if I really need that app like Grab, I have no choice but install.
Maybe, explain to your clients why you need to do that action and explain it really well.

Are there any good YouTube alternatives? https://d.tube/ is one which seems vaguely decentralized, though its underlying steem and ipfs platforms are naïve "do the first thing which comes to mind" systems. I have zero confidence in the robustness of these systems, and it's not even a "perfect is the enemy of good" situation, since dtube is also pretty janky. It's disappointing, though I guess there just aren't enough people interested in this stuff to put enough man-hours into it.

Dtube is not really a viable alternative and I say that as a massive fan of the Steem platform in general.
You cannot watch videos that are older than 7 days and the underlying system for uploading and automatically converting videos leaves much to be desired.

I think LBRY is doing a much better job in that regard, even though monetization is still somewhat of a problem.
There you can instantly back up your entire Youtube account and receive LBRY credits for it, depending on how many Youtube subscribers you have.

You can easily watch older videos (contrary to Dtube) & people can tip video creators with the free LBRY credits they receive.

Mind you, LBRY is created as a protocol, any service, app or website can make use of LBRY. It's completely open-source as well.

Saw LBRY being discussed on politics and society BTT section. The goods things it should help people more aware of LBRY, and able to grasp the potential of LBRY protocol, not to mention Youtube become excessive in demonization, and censorship.

As the team keeps on improving their services, they should look into some of the feedback from the reviews of their app.
Currently, I can say it is fairly decent though there are some clients who are not satisfied with your services, and that's normal.

We all know that most apps in google play really ask permission to our personal files, and sometimes I don't install it as well.
But if I really need that app like Grab, I have no choice but install.
Maybe, explain to your clients why you need to do that action and explain it really well.

Complainers will complain. These are typical permissions most apps ask for if you want to save content on the device. I'll get an issue for this now that we have streaming implemented.

 These permissions are not specific or exclusive to the LBRY app - nor should they require any further explanation from LBRY or any developer whose app requires these obvious permissions - as, once again, already stated - most understand this is a general requirement/safety/awareness precaution of the Mobile Android OS.

 This is so general of a complaint in regards to the common everyday steps of installing any app on Google Play within the past 5 years - it literally pertains to EVERY SINGLE app on Google play right now.

That's a nice approach towards this matter.
People sometimes are not oriented with the setup of google play apps.
If you can explain it clearly and not be arrogant about this, I don't think users will further complain about this specific issue.
At least clarify the matter and it's not your app that is totally responsible for that requirement but like a default protocol of installing an app from google play.

Is It Only Avaible On Desktop Site?
And I Don't Think Forcing Mobile User To Become "Seeder" Is Good.
Smartphone Has Small Storage Capacity, And Became Seeder Need A Lot Of Bandwidth(It's Expensive).

LBC it still has a lot of potential for growth and can maintain a sustainable ecosystem. I remember that 3 years ago LBC reached the value of $1.60, since then has fallen more than 90% and is still among the 500 highest capitalization in coingecko, this shows the interest in the platform. Since there are more than 5000 coins and tokens listed on the site...

Honestly, we can not compare and count on those numbers at the market capitalization websites since they list most of the altcoins that existing on the exchanges, and we can't know for sure how the project behave. I mean shit ton useless cryptocurrencies are being listed on their websites too, So judging an LBRY interest by those number are not quite good.

Personally, I have no doubt about LBRY interest as the time goes by, and when the project becomes more mature, not to mention, more YouTubers are become aware and fed up with YT strict policies and censorship. A decentralized content marketplace like LBRY would be a heaven for them.

You might put it on the wrong directories. Try to look at this page for further information about migrating your wallet to the new version: https://lbry.com/faq/backup-data, https://lbry.com/faq/lbry-directories.

Also, Make you sure you always backup your wallet, just to be safe in case something unexpected happens.

They need good exposure so those youtubers will come to know the great benefits of this platform to optimize their works.
This would be great also for those that really put effort in creating their content and not just the typical no-effort fake contents.
Adoption is one major bottleneck of most projects. You may have the overwhelming features but the number of users are not that many.

Our latest Development report was just released! It's available for your reading pleasure here: https://lbry.com/news/jun-july-dev

We go over all the awesome new features in the latest app release, details about what had to happen on the SDK side to make this possible, as well as updates for Android, LBRY.tv, YouTube Sync, LBRYcrd, and our Roadmap.

We apologize for the long delay between updates, but the team was hard as work on the latest app and SDK releases and we really wanted to get those out before talking about them in more detail. For future reports, the goal is to make them regular, a bit more simplified, and not centered around release schedules.

About the volume slider, the developer's team are preparing for a new video player application in the next release, they tried to apply in the last version but could not get it to work and postponed it for the next version. The vortex preload image also being issued on the Github, in the next version, there should be an option to disable it.

Internally we are finishing up / testing the accounts and rewards related features, and hope to have a full release in the next couple of months. The wallet will be a custodial solution where LBRY helps users manage their keys. Initially these wallets will be separate from any local Desktop/Android app ones, but the plan is to enable a way for users to sync all their wallets across devices, including lbry.tv.

It's coming up in a few months. ;D

LBRY is being delisted from Poloniex.

Bravo, idiots.

Code:
On Tuesday, October 15th, at 16:00 UTC, trading for Pascal (PASC), Steem (STEEM), Navcoin (NAV), GameCredits (GAME), LBRY Credits (LBC), and Clams (CLAM) will be permanently disabled on Poloniex. Please finalize all trades in these assets prior to October 15th. Once delisted, there will be a window of time provided to withdraw the remaining balance in these assets.

Here are some important dates to keep in mind:


October 15th at 16:00 UTC: trading of PASC, STEEM, NAV, GAME, LBC and CLAM will be disabled

October 28th at 16:00 UTC: LBC withdrawals will be permanently disabled

Lbry must promote interest increase token exchange volume,trade,crypto investors,inst  otherwise they will be  delisted fast from overall lack of coin exchange participation.
In that exchanges, the Bittrex violation of TOS are specific -when recognized&determined lack of interest  disregard of the coins valuelisting&liquidity&price
-

as projects show no interest in increasing their exchange coin listings liquidity or keeping high trade interests

 the exchange platforms are so overloaded, they will delist dead coins like lbry quick



   


I tried to warn of trhis. 

*LBRY wallet had disabled for #2 weeks# on PolOniex, team never fixed this ignorance of wallet may be oversight that caused LBRy delist
team neede caring management about their own trading asset LIQUIDITY ,,this what happens

where will LBRY trade for use on platform ? very miuch harder costly to be listed on any exchanges in this day.
,

 why team never worried about this or list on more exchnaghes is very very poor

This is the response of JK on the LBRY Discord. (Feel free to share message below in other chats)

The Polo delisting caught us by surprise as much as it did everyone else. We are working to get answers and will share as soon as we have some. LBRY's VC also counts the CEO of Circle as one of it's founding CEOs, so hopefully we will actually get one.

Regardless of what happens, nothing will stop us from continuing to develop LBRY, and LBRY has continued to grow with more than 40,000 using it just last week.

We will use this delisting as a spark to only ensure we are listed in more places, and also re-examine our policies regarding listings (to date, it has been to never pay to be listed).

Thanks for this feedback, dev!
LBC's price did not fall significantly after delisting so  LBRY is growing in the right direction.
I very like LBRY !

Please could anyone tell what is the safest way to hold LBC ( including control private key) ?
Is there paper wallet?
Thanks!

It is very regrettable to be delisted in Poloniex and it looks like you have to make a better plan and hopefully listed in a bigger market may be in a lot of possibilities because the volume there is so large

they should have worked closely with polo but anyway, you cant cry over spilled milk. better look for other options and from then on, be alert to announcements or updates so as not to be delisted again.
 however ive seen another platform for content creators - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5182450.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5182450.0)

https://www.juiice.com/

they are still in beta but another competitor in the market but good for all those content creators. they have more options to choose from and publish their works.

Best way would be the LBRY desktop app + encrypt the wallet, or you can also use a ledger: lbry.com/faq/multisig

Coinomi also supports LBC, that's another option too.

  I remember it was like 3 years ago that i found out about LBRY project, and it gave me a positive feeling so i invest some cash in the coin.
 
  When i see now that my investment is going to level useless, it make me a little disappointed. Not because i lost money bud more about less of interest the team had and still have for there investors. 

  I speak yesterday with somebody from the team that first put a message in the main room like " we never ask people to buy lbc, everybody knows that trading coins is a risk"

  I told him also that the team also needed to get paid so who is paying your pay check now, and from where this money is coming from.

  If i overview the timeline i can only conclude that the juni 2017 pump was create to cash out big, and the team is still paid with that money today.

  After that the value of rewards and paid support make the coin going into a downtrend, and never stops.

  And we all know this is the risk, bud this delisting will turn the project into a negative vibe to. 

  The lack of interest and support from the team results in empty pockets from there early investors, this is not how you respect the people what keeps your project still on going right now.


  I saw somebody write something like, if you want to be on a good exchange this day's it cost you a lot of cash.

  And you maybe right bud investors did there support its time the team do something back for the people who make it possible that this team still get a paycheck.

  So i see only solution and that will be that LBC will be listed on Binance Exchange and yes that will maybe cost some cash, bud do they have any other choice who is going to pay there paycheck in the future.

  And second as investors we have also some right to tell them what to do with there money, or do they totally not care us?


  If lbc is only trade on one exchange then the price will be soon dumped to 10 and never will get up and be delisted also. That will give a negative vibe that will damage the project to, is that what they want ?


  This project is to good to end like this lets find some solution for this together

You guys are lost ! It don't even make sense,and your product doesn't even answer a problem,you create drama against youtube most of time to give credibility to your project ...

I'm not sure what is the end game here, but if the economics of Lbry matched the technical capability of their team, it would be one of the best crypto projects out there. They are hard-working, building new stuff all the time, fast in fixing what doesn't work, really, really capable coders... but I can't see how it could economically work and Tom goes to full arrogant asshole mode whenever faced with that. Shame.

Yesterday, in a completely outrageous move, YouTube banned and/or deleted an incredible amount of blockchain and tech content.

A large number of blockchain creators have moved into LBRY in response and others were already here.

We put together a round up of affected channels in this news post: https://lbry.com/news/youtubecryptocrackdown

Please help show that YouTube cannot get away with this and there are better alternatives by following and supporting the creators in the above post!

If you are on Twitter, a number of you have been talking about LBRY and it's really amazing to see. Thank you! Here's the Tweet for this story: https://twitter.com/LBRYio/status/1210300897466748929

This isn't going to be "news" to anyone here since you've been using it for some time, but as of today we're announcing lbry.tv to be considered "launched" (cause it has been -- 100,000 people used it last week )

There's no big campaign or additional rewards today  (look for a big February campaign from us next week), but we are publishing some sweet introductory pieces of media from us and the community.

The official introducing lbry.tv blog post: https://lbry.com/news/lbrytv

"Be Free on LBRY" an epic video by neohumaneve (on LBRY, he's not here): https://lbry.tv/@lbry:3f/befreeonlbry:5

"Meet lbry.tv" an updated introductory video by Clement | LBRY.com : https://lbry.tv/@lbry:3f/meetlbrytv:c

We'll also be sending an email about this to users who haven't been back in a while, so if you get it shame on you😁

Now please go share these great pieces and your invite links with your friends!! DM one or seventeen of them right now for extra good place points 💪🙏🥳

LBRY releases LBRY Hubble for Android, which brings substantial performance improvements, repost support, and a variety of other features.

Cold start-up speeds and video play speeds from notifications, in particular, are substantially improved. But practically all app actions should be faster, particularly when first opening the app.

Download from Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.lbry.browser or Direct-download: http://lbry.com/releases/lbry-android.apk

More about LBRY Hubble

* Support for creating and displaying reposts
* Revamped first-run to encourage more following of creators.
* Support app launching before SDK readiness.
* Launch videos from notifications via lbry.tv.
* Participation in peer-to-peer data network can be enabled in settings. This disables fast start, and allows streaming from P2P network (no hosting).
* More information about wallet settings, backing up, and wallet custody in the wallet area.
* Support for many new languages: Danish, Basa Jawa, Ukrainian, Hindi, Dutch, French, Estonian, Marathi, Russian, Romanian, and Slovak
* Updated to LBRY SDK 0.64.0 for improved stability and performance.
* Fixed some navigation related bugs, particularly with the back button.

I'm very interested in this project, but no matter how much I'm reading about I still didn't properly get where all the supposedly thousands of terabytes of the videos are stored and how. I guess they should be stored in a decentralized way in thousands of users PCs, but didn't get any clear infos on that. Are they stored as full files or in chunks? With which redundancy for the cases nodes go offline? WHich incentives would people get to host some of the library's files (if that is the way of storing). And I really don't understand why you don't have a clear and easy to find one pager in your website explaining these simple facts in a way that people have actually a chance to understand what LBRY actually is. I've been occasionally coming back to ypur website for WEEKS now in the hope to uderstand something, but I didn't yet. Which obviouslly prevents me to start using your platform. I guess I'm not the only one.

I guess I'm not the only one.

They are stored in 2MB and hosted by anyone that publishes or downloads the files, and also by LBRY inc. In the long term, we hope to incentivize this and have more dedicated hosting services providing this server.

We mention this on lbry.com/faq/host-content. Most people who use LBRY don't need or want to know these details but the ones that do usually dig into the FAQs or other sites like lbry.tech that detail how it all works.

Always recommend to everyone they immediately SELL their $LBC or swap it for anything else as the LBRY CEO  team could do not care about the price or value
$LBC is one of the WORST performing digital assets of 2020
it seems they have abandoned LBRY roadmap,live streaming,upgrades etc for their new project that does not concentrate on blockchain tech  ANOTHER NEGATIVE FOR $LBC price

What projects would you recommend outside of LBRY if you aren't a fan of them? They seem to have pretty decent infrastructure and price could follow that.

I mean, the attention market is now all taken away by Tik Tok. Nobody wants this old crap weighted down by stupid imperfect AI, and hinging on various monetization strategies which have never been useful to hold users for long, and other setbacks of evolutionary progress that we are about to leave behind.

That is the challenge for platforms like this, where there are a lot more popular platforms that are already in existence.
Hard to penetrate the market and get users onboard. Unless, they have large companies backing the technology.
But at least this one is trying to implement their use case. Most of their contemporaries have long been abandoned.

Google banning it and other major players shadow banning it is awful for price. But the overall censorship might be good for LBRY's overall meta. Hard to say if people care ultimately. These types of coins historically haven't done well to date. Whether or not that will be true for forever, I really have no idea.

For those that can get good use out of LBRY get a win/win on usage of the currency.

My youtube channel linked to it stopped gaining tip I don’t know why even though I stake some of my LBC’s. But I like the platforms mission, I think it needs serious marketing to gain more users. No other YouTube like platform that allows viewers and content creators to earn crypto in just few clicks, It has a lot of potential and a real game  changer.

I believe they are lacking with marketing programs here. Not many people know about this platform. As you have experience in using this platform, are you getting decent amount of coins worth following? I remember one similar project before the buzzshow, don't know what they are doing right now in terms of use case.

Odysee is more user-and-community oriented than LBRY. It mainly focuses on the user experience. Odysee tries an attempt and approach to gain a wider audience, for example, those users who not familiar with cryptocurrencies,  Odysee replaces the LBC with a credits icon. Technically, Odysee is built on top of LBRY, and additionally has like and dislike features, and also a notification. In short, yes it is indeed kinda like youtube's "successor".

LBC's value has shot up a bunch recently. Historically, these types of coins/platforms have always done very poorly. But censorship is also at an all time high and growing. Whether or not there's now enough technology and drive to send this coin skyrocketing is anyone's guess. But I'd say that the opportunity at least exists now unlike before.

It would be nice to see LBC added to a few more prominent exchanges I'd say first.

I should also mention that MintDice ran a small piece on LBRY (https://mintdice.com/blog/lbry-network-a-censorship-resistant-media-platform) earlier across it's site and platforms to help spread the awareness.

2) Check out https://odysee.com/feb2021roundup for a roundup of features including wallet balance improvements + mass tip unlocking, moderation tools (comment deletion live, better blocking coming), and search improvements.

Thank you all again for the continued support! If there are any creators not on Odysee that you've love to watch, now is a better time than ever to give them a poke.

How is the 'live' coming along. That is going to be a game changer. Especially if you have a unique 'Live' show that will grab EVERYONE'S attention. Get someone on the cusp of society to perform a raunchy live video when LIVE lbry launches. That would be a GAME CHANGER!! Someone like Tekashi 69 who has been deplatformed by the industry.

Not only government agencies such as the SEC hinder the development of the crypto market, but also major banks are actively involved in this, such as JPMorgan, for example, here is a letter to JPMorgan shareholders on behalf of JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon in which he directly calls digital assets a potential threat and calls for stricter regulation of cryptocurrencies: "Digital currencies and fintech projects should have a clear legal status, since they potentially threaten the traditional banking sector."  https://twitter.com/jpmorgan/status/1379773451393716226

Founder of Quantum Economics, Mati Greenspan, addresses an open letter "Don't let them kill cryptocurrencies" in which he writes in particular : "If the court rules against LBRY, it will literally call into question the future of all cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin and ether. Judges are usually guided by previous decisions in similar cases, so a negative decision in the case against LBRY will allow you to kill any project that uses tokens on the blockchain. Projects in the field of DeFi and NFT, projects based on smart contracts and any other, with the exception, perhaps, of stablecoins"
"Let's hope the judge sees the gaping holes in the SEC's statements. LBRY's lawyers have very strong arguments, so I'm pretty optimistic in this case"  https://mailchi.mp/6f7986014032/hot-off-the-press-qe-episode-13445836?e=ac072fa953

When you upload or watch content on Odysee, it comes from LBRY reflector servers. I don't know where exactly it's stored/hosted but they probably use multiple services across many regions. In my region, they use OVHcloud.

Well yep, in fact, there is a lot of conversation on their social media channel. I do understand that the team might be focusing to attract content creators out there, in consequence, their instant messaging channels are crowded since all the creators are usually using an instant messaging platform.

What struck me, it is such a contrast between their messaging platform and this thread. I'd hope LBRY gains Bitcointalk community awareness since the platform is truly giving a decentralization toward the content marketplace.

The whole delisting and SEC issues hit LBC hard. The price dumped a lot and with the SEC issue that is still going on, there still a lot of uncertainty in the markets. While in fact that the LBRY network won't get affected by the SEC issue, but the price still could potentially be affected by it.

1 Million Channels + 1 Million Blocks Celebration!

LBRY has passed two major milestones: 1 Million Blocks mined, and 1 Million Channels created. (https://odysee.com/@lbry:3f/1M:8?src=open&r=Dh5ZkmzxVGxgU111gtxhhNxMhyjoWujA)

To celebrate this most auspicious milestone, they are giving away 100,000 Credits! The first 10,000 of you to use the code firstmillion (on the Rewards page in LBRY, under "Custom Code") will get 10 Credits deposited directly into your LBRY Wallet.

Congratulations LBRY... Keep being awesome 8)

YouTube used to be a platform for content creators and now they're advertising platforms but LBRY is a decentralized protocol
for accessing and publishing digital content
LBRY puts creators first, not advertisers!
And The amount of new videos posted on the network has grown a lot and Hundreds of people across six continents contributed to LBRY.

Yeap, What I'd like to give a shout out is to their team and the community who welcome any contribution for LBRY, also the clarity of their contribution guidelines really helps for anyone who wants to give it a shot.

I remember back ago, I was probably once or twice, contribute to their app development project and as an application tester, and they also give a reward for the contributor.



In case anyone wondering there is a nice website that collects LBRY network and LBRY platform metrics, you can take a peek at https://lbrynomics.com.

Below is a sneak peek at the platform growth.

That's quite a feat, 1M channels created. But wonder, what percentage are really active creators here? Waiting what popularity they can achieve among social media platforms... Can they get at least a quarter of YT viewers? This coin has not listed yet in bigger exchanges like Binance or Kucoin, so the probability that they can improve their price later on is still high.

I'm not aware of the numbers of the active users, and how it can be measured. But we can take a look at the publications data as I posted above. You can also browser around on that website(https://lbrynomics.com/). A lot of interesting statistics about what happening within the platforms.

It's been a while since I accessed my wallet, I liked it when they rewarded me for watching videos. I gathered a lot of LBRY...
They do still give a reward for the user watching a video. They called it "Daily Watch Reward", you can earn up to 100 LBC. The reward is eligible for once every day.

Just to make sure, that I think the term "transfer" does not quite right. Odysee is built on top of LBRY, so there is none of any change/transferring process that happened between LBRY and Odysee.

Regarding the reward, I can't name anything better other than their own page about it. The article sums up pretty much about it. You can check it out below:

I wonder how they address the issue of copyright I have seen some Youtube videos being downloaded and uploaded on LBRY by another uploader, do they have a system that can flag the content that is copyright materials, and what penalties they imposed on members that are stealing other people's content from other platforms.

Any content that uploaded within the application controlled by LBRY Inc, will follow the DMCA rule. So any copyright infringement will be handled. The right owner could file a DMCA takedown request directly from their application like LBRY desktop and/or Odysee.

On the other hand, do note that the LBRY protocol is censorship-resistant, as long as someone still keeps/seeds the file, anyone still can access the file within the protocol.

Regarding full information about it, I suggest you read their FAQ page about the concern: https://lbry.com/faq/dmca

Its important to note that LBRY were singled out among hundreds of tokens with similar, and even identical, tokenomics because they won't censor content along with the rest of the tech oligarchy.

Should LBRY resolve any current issue with the SEC, there are at least a few more federal agencies that will step in with a new suit from a new angle. Then the UK and EU agencies can step up and file new ones.

Supporting LBRY is 100% supporting a principle, not making a profit.

Those in power don't need to win these suits, they just have to make it too costly to continue operations. That is the whole purpose of "Lawfare": win by financial attrition.

You better check your fact!

Rewards are still being given to the users who actively use LBRY or Odysee. You can refer to this: https://lbry.com/faq/rewards and Odysee also still shows its reward page. Best if you verify it yourself by using the platforms.

LBRY is still developing, rewards are one of few ways that will make the platform is widely known and used, I don't see them stopping the reward scheme in the meantime.

If LBRY is rewarding content creators, then by buying LBRY we essentially support those content creators, right? It seems that market is not really liquid tho.
Where can we see how much some of the creators get rewarded?

Any comments on recent censorship towards Russia? Facebook and BBC are now unavailable in Russia (it's probably a blessing tho), but people might want to seek for the alternatives. Is Odysee/LBRY viable alternative service for Russians?

I don't know if odysee can become a full-fledged replacement for a platform like facebook, taking into account the fact that the platform sometimes slows down very much when viewing video content, imho still needs a lot of work. By the way, Facebook blocking, I tried to go in now, there are no problems, it seems to me a lot depends on the provider, although blocking is also a time-consuming process, in any case, blocking social networks and apparently youtube in Russia will lead to the development of alternative platforms.

The creators will hardly feel the support if you do that way. To directly tips/supports the creators on their content page or channel page should be the way to go.

Anyway, I don't know the current LBRY foundation state regarding content creators' rewards, I don't know if they are still rewarding to those who sync their Youtube channel into LBRY. As of now, if you are want to support some creators, best to directly tip them(https://lbry.com/faq/tipping).

Don't know where and how to specifically find it but https://lbrynomics.com/ may give you some insights.

Personally, I believe the lbry protocol may give them a viable anti-censorship content, though, I don't about the future viability of it, nothing their government said they will only use russian based DNS, as in result, they may be completely limited from the outside internet world(CMIIW).

Yes, if everything goes as it is currently going, then Russian users can simply be switched to their servers and localized from the external Internet, but for this their data centers must be created and ready to accept traffic, which I am more than sure no one took care of in advance.

Well, if it does happen, some are already calling March 11, I think it's still rumors no more, then no blockchains can be an alternative to getting any information from outside. But still I want to believe that the Russian government, which can only steal and destroy, will not achieve the result that it would like, in any case, there is not much time left to see all this

You can see how much any channel has in supports and you can see how much any video has in supports. However, these supports/stakes don't differentiate between LBC purchased by the content creator, supports staked by other users supporting their content and tips given to them by other users supporting their content.

Realistically, for the time being, Odysee is growing very fast but is still quite small. Users probably only get a small number of earns for the time being.

LBRY as a technology is 100% agnostic to content. That will always be a tool for anyone. Russians or whomever. For now, Odysee has mostly taken the high ground. If for any reason, they deviate, any other front-end competitor also boot strapped from the LBRY network could eat their lunch or people could just use the LBRY protocol itself.

But you should also take into account the fact that when creating your own content, the LBRY images are also blocked on the Odysee account, they also continue to be displayed on your total balance, but they are not available for withdrawal, this can be seen in the balance tab in the boosting content section (on initial publishes(Delete or edit past content to spend)).

And yes, in my opinion, too much content is a mirror of youtube channels, it is clear that the authors want to somehow protect their channels, but they wanted to see more unique content on the Odysee platform.

I'm not entirely clear on what you're saying here. I think that Odysee does give some initial LBC so that people can publish content. It's trivially cheap to publish content to the LBRY blockchain, something like 0.00002 LBC or something which comes out to the outrageous price of $0.0000007 or something. Granted, as long as something costs more than $0.0000, it will scare users away. But if they let users withdraw this free crypto, then malicious actors will invariably try to game the system. It's just how the world is unfortunately.

As far as Odysee is concerned from a usability perspective, them or any other web3 competitor trying to overtake legacy big tech centralized media has to have a sync function or else their platform, I would say, is largely doomed to fail before it even starts. Odysee has that.

And until there's a sufficient audience and/or healthy monetization stream on Odysee, they are going to have to lean on the YouTube sync before they can get Odysee specific content. That's also just a function of society I believe.

I think Odysee's steps they've taken so far are remarkably good. Controversial opinion but I think most blockchain socials have a very unhealthy monetization system (for example, steemit/hive). And that building it correctly is both a lot of work and slow/expensive. If they continue in the direction they have been and organic growth continues, I think your problems will all get answered on their own through time.

I don't see there is something wrong with too much youtube content on LBRY. Back then even the community are tempted to want their favourite creators to be available on LBRY. And yes, building a "migrations" tool for the contents is essential, both for the users and the creators. I remember back then LBRY focused a lot that they reserve some grants to make that kind of application available.

Just barely knew that LBRY is listed as recommended video streaming client on the Privacyguides site (https://www.privacyguides.org/video-streaming/#lbry). It's a good thing since I deem it as a way of exposure for the LBRY ecosystem.

As a big Odysee/LBRY fan, there was a very long post that we just made about the subject to both LBRY & MintDice:

https://odysee.com/@Bitcoin:29/lbc:43c

I hope anyone can find this worthwhile and interesting :)

Looks like someone was slowly buying LBC the last 2-3 months..

I didn't expect the price to go up like this, in this time frame. Granted it's just a 2.25x from the local low to the local high.

I think the asymmetric returns come from a favorable ruling with the SEC case. If LBRY is able to win in summary judgement and/or the appeals court and be one of, if not the only crypto with legal clarity in the world, that could mean huge things price wise. It might get listed on a lot of A-tier exchanges would be the least you would expect.

The major thing in the short term though is how good of a platform Odysee/LBRY is and how many users are using this every single day/month. It's kind of insane relative to it's market cap. Totally out of sync with most crypto projects where it has no use case and pumps to billions because it has a dog picture. If people are picking up on the underlying fundamentals right now, perhaps that could be part of the recent price rise irrespective of the SEC?

I think the extreme bull cases bring this price up to 1,000 sats - 50,000 sats. But risk of failure in the mean time is quite large for a huge number of reasons.

This obsession with regulation ends up destroying the reputation of many good projects. I hope this ends as soon as possible, and LBRY emerges victorious from this legal battle.

The whole thing is pretty insane. The SEC targeted one of the most legitimate projects out there in it's inception to attempt to create an easy legal standard pursuant to their shitty policies. But they didn't realize they were fighting against Jeremy Kauffman, one of the most principled libertarians in the world that will take this case to the bitter end.

Meanwhile, LBRY/Odysee hosts well over 50m users per month. While sitting on a $LBC market cap around $10M. While both the user base and SEO power are growing at exponential rates. While YouTube and other Big Tech platforms are banning star level content creators by the dozens (hundreds?) every week and if they want to continue creating content they have to go somewhere. Meanwhile intelligent people are looking to divert their attention away from fake propped up cable news media and over to genuinely interesting content.

None of this adds up to me at all. Legally, financially, you name it.

And all of that as I just mentioned with how good LBRY/Odysee is. And furthermore how fast and good the development is by these folks. It's insane. Their product is transforming for the better at lightning speed and may not even be recognizable (in a good way) in 1-2 years time.

If you add up all these eye watering statistics on the demand side, what $LBC is sitting at makes no sense, if the SEC's case were to ever fail giving LBRY the green light. But $LBC does host a ton of risk as a crypto asset and a very long-term time horizon by crypto standards, for sure, all the while.

You can hear Jeremy or Julian say this on podcasts. Back in 2020 they were below 1M users, I think, and it's grown since then (obviously). They have Google Analytics running which will give them a much more detailed analysis of what's going on. They would have to release screenshots of their analytics to share with people for you to get a detailed view of what's actually going on.

You can approximate a website's traffic less accurately with a tool like SimilarWeb, though this says 23M/mo:

https://ibb.co/nBvmzBq

You can also see their SEO metrics climbing with a tool like Ahrefs which shows their SEO strength as #9.2k in the world and climbing.

https://ibb.co/B2241Dp

Even taking the bearish view though... let's even say they had 10M users/mo and terrible user retention. How would that relate to other crypto projects in the $10M market cap range? Even assuming no more growth? To me, seems unlikely. The other thing to add in to the mix is that there's virtually no other viable competitor in the space. Any attempt at a platform like this has been a complete catastrophe outside of LBRY if you take a look at web metrics and their blockchain economics.

Nice landmark boys. We hit 100+ sats on both exchanges for the first time in a year after dropping sub 40 not too long ago. I wasn't buying any of this up-tick the past months so it has absolutely nothing to do with me. It's either a whale or a bunch of buyers perhaps seeing the value all of a sudden. Or not, who knows.

But this has been really nice to see solid price action on such a noteworthy cause out there to fight censorship and Big Tech.

Next landmark stop, 200 sats?

Still looks pretty flat.. wouldn't call it a landmark, just a sideways price movement

I guess depends on your definition of landmark. 1-year high seems reasonable. I guess landmark wise from recent history, 700 sats would be the next target.

The 1-year chart:

The more recent local high @682 sats

And yeah, relatively, it looks flat there. I guess it all depends on your entry point. If your entry point was post July 2021, then it's currently a real good situation. If you are a bag holder from earlier, then yeah, it's effectively useless.

Perhaps? I think you'd have to email LBRY to get their attention. That said, I think this can be a tough issue to solve for with blockchain stuff. And I doubt it's their top priority between the lawsuit and core development.


Market wise, $LBC seems to have stalled a tiny bit. There was immense buy pressure up from 40 sats and just no sell side liquidity the whole way up. So the price just moved up. Then as the price finally got to the 130-150 sat region, some sellers finally put in huge orders for millions of $LBC. But interestingly, it seems like the buyers are just as determined now as they have been at any other time. This has lead to a massive increase in volume. Pretty much the highest seen this calendar year.

It'll be interesting to see who wins out between the sellers and buyers. My guess is on the buyers because my guess is the sellers have finite $LBC and the buyers just don't care at this price.

That said, there's a pretty solid argument on the other side of the aisle that price action can't be supported at these relatively high prices. Will be a fun one to watch.

I suppose the hope is that LBC becomes more available and more widely used.

I love Odysee, maybe after this Stupid lawsuit is over we can easily buy LBC from Odysee.
LBC will go up organically and continue growing. Lets the market decides which asset to use daily.
And I hope this is not a pump and dump like we always see.
Traders and speculators ruin useful projects, stick to the meme coins for that shit.

The big drama in theory is that by the end of the week there has to be an answer to the LBRY/SEC case or else it goes to trial, starting a week from now, is my understanding. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. So there could be huge crypto news breaking any day.

In the mean time, MintDice dropped a third in depth article regarding LBRY / Odysee:

How To Support LBRY/Odysee (Free Speech Maxis Unite) (https://www.mintdice.com/blog/how-to-support-lbry-odysee-free-speech-maxis-unite)

There's so many random things that could happen as a result of the case that could be discussed. The only certainty as I understand it is that if either side loses, an appeal is going to be filed meaning never ending drama.

Best thing that can happen for LBC token is for LBRY co to just close down, burn all the rest premine, and make LBC same level of decentralization as BTC in some ways.... that is the right and only way forward!
