Looks like an interesting project! How do you feel about rolling out your own coin, instead of relying on the Ethereum network for token distribution? I certainly won't invest if it's an Ethereum token, because there are way too many of them already, and I don't like Ethereum.

I think if there is your own coin on the blockchain, this can also be used as an incentive payment method for content creators later, so you'll need your own blockchain+coin anyway. Why not distribute those coins in an ICO right away to the ICO investors?

Also please consider switching to Slack or Discord, not everybody has a mobile phone to join the Telegram platform. Slack and Discord also work on mobile, but don't require a phone number.

"Selling pressure", as you are noting it in your whitepaper, certainly won't be a problem if you make a PoS coin with 5% per year, for example. It is an incentive for people to run nodes on the network, which in turn could also be used for CDN functionality etc.

How do you see the decentralization of YouTube?

I was supposed to go to Blockshow Asia in Singapore for Viewly but my passport wasnt valid for long enough by just a few days, we missed out on that one. Heading out in a bit to do renewal stuff for it and hopefully it doesnt chew up too much of the day. So much youtube discontent on twitter to mine right now

Thanks for this, Youtube definitely needs a competitor and what better way for a decentralized one utilizing blockchain.

I also have an idea - add live streaming to viewly!

I've been hearing a lot of FUD from early investors. I hope the Viewly team addresses this and finds a way to make this whole ICO process fair for everyone.

Well I don't have a smartphone for privacy reasons, so I cannot use the so called "private" Telegram... 

Maybe you can convince your developers to join this forum and answer some questions here, or you could just copy & paste their answer?

That sounds good. But where will all these videos be stored? Will the content be free for viewing, or should I forcibly sacrifice the author to see his work?
