STEEMY - VIDEO PLATFORM CONCEPT - YOUTUBEISOVERPARTY

This post creates a great sum up of what this concept represents: https://steemit.com/steemit/@calaber24p/censorship-on-youtube-creates-an-unique-opportunity-for-decentralized-platforms-like-steemit-to-create-an-alternative-video

After reading thoroughly over what is STEEMIT and the whole STEEM currency, I'm creating a concept plan to create a video platform utilizing the same currency but I need help in funding it.

My name is AJ DeSwart, Im a fin-tech developer and entrepreneur who has worked on numerous projects along with creations of my own that are starting to take shape. I've created this concept in hope of development funds from the same community platform that generates value though content and engagement.

With recent youtube content guidelines resulting in heavy restrictions of free speech and diversity, ALOT of youtubers are finding there videos either being demonetized or simply taken down from the platform. Some good examples of recent copyright strikes are:

Youtuber Phillip Defranco:


Youtube Channel MCJUGGERNUGGETS:

Youtube Channel ETC Show:

The migration of content creators leaving Youtube could create a HUGE platform for STEEM to stand on, even with the creation of STEEMIT as a blogging social media platform side by side.

My goal is to keep a similar community intact for all those who participate. I seek contributions from developers and like minded entrepreneur individuals who can outline a functioning platform for all those who like the idea of a decentralized video content system that does not infringe free speech or the right to monetize.

A video platform and website called STEEMY.TV or simular name would be used. I have contacts for hosting, branding, marketing and more but it requires funds to operate so whatever this post generates is going to the cause.

Please Upvote this post and help make it trend for the beginning stages of this concept. I will definitely update as this develops. Thank you to all those who support me and those who contribute!

I can't believe you haven't had more interest in this post. What a fantastic idea.

Algorithms and clickbait titles are to blame lol. I'm still moving forward with it. Even the dev team upvoted.

Man $0.66 sucks balls for rewarding such a great idea...try again with "Watch Free Bitcoin Powered Anarchist Alien Abduct Paymate Brenda Zambrano From Jail" lol that might get some click throughs
