A few hours ago we have started our long anticipated pre-ico (formerly known as community seed). We have hit our minimum cap within minutes, and are progressing towards successful round completion.

This sale is limited to 4,000 ETH, and we are offering 10% of the total VIEW Token supply. The specifics of the sale are available at:

So US cannot participate?

That is right, citizens of US and China are excluded from participating in this sale.

What's the market cap?

[viewly]

What's the market cap?

The total possible supply is capped at 100M View Tokens.
The available supply after the pre-ico will be 10% of that, or 10M.

I'm not sure how to answer the market cap question, since this is not an equity.

[sf82]

Do you have anything more to show than a whitepaper?

I was live when the minicap hit, really glad to see this kind of projects taking a good turn! I just registered to ask a questio  because I got a problem joining the telegram group.

Can someone please tell me will there be streaming on the platform? I am an aspiring streamer and have put some ETH hoping for a good future for guys like me who hope to earn from their hobbies? I will start uploading videos really soon and hope you'll like them.

GL to everyone and grats to the team for such an amazing project!

Streaming is a commonly requested feature, and as such is on our roadmap.
We are currently focusing on regular video first, since it is easier from bootstrapping and technical execution perspectives.

Mobile apps are crucial, however during the 'early adopter' stage we would prefer to move faster with a single app, and iterate on the product/market fit. The native iOS/Android apps will be developed soon thereafter.

Thanks for the answer! And how about just sounds/music? Something lets say like the app would play just the sound of a vodeo in the background without consuming my entire 4g connection and battery? That would be awesome.

Yes, while transcoding videos for adaptive bitrate, we also split video and audio tracks. So this would be just an UI feature on top - very useful for music, podcasts and audiobooks.
