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) and technical resource site at https://lbry.tech. See our blog post for the breakdown: 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. Meet the team here: https://lbry.com/team
We are currently supported on Desktop/Android and have a web presence through 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) and even have a major movie studio publishing films like Howl (lbry://howl), starring James Franco, and It's a Disaster (lbry://itsadisaster), starring David Cross!
You can see our previous unofficial post here: 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
Want to skip the rest and get right into it, download our Desktop/Android app here: https://lbry.com/get. In order to earn LBRY 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
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. Have an awesome idea in mind, reach out to us at https://lbry.fund
Looking for assistance? Check out our Frequently Asked Questions at https://lbry.com/faq.
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.

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 + moreLBRY 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! Earn With Youtube SyncLBRY 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.
Spee.ch - Web Presence for LBRYspee.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.
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) in the first half of this year. You can sign up at https://lbry.tvFile 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 or the #mining channel on https://chat.lbry.com for more information.

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. https://steempeak.com/cryptocurrency/@solominer/image-hosting-on-the-blockchain-how-lbry-is-addressing-this-with-spee-ch

Glad that the official Announcements LBRY thread is finished, and honestly it looks nice.

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!

I installed for Windows, but the software does not start, starts opening the window then download and writes that can not do anything 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.

Development Update for February just getting out. https://lbry.io/news/feb-19-updateLoving the way hows the new redesign of the website, the redesign gives the website more simplicity, and make it 'alive'. 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) . ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) The project is doing good with all the updates. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

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.
