"We have decided to launch the rebroadcasts of the tournaments on the existing

version of the platform," comments Alexey Burdyko, CEO and founder of

Play2Live. "While a major tech update is en route, we thought that gamers and

P2L project supporters would marvel at the opportunity to watch the recorded

streams of widely enjoyed events such as Dota 2 - The International. We are

determined to further augment the functionality of the platform. The

forthcoming update is scheduled for the start of the token sale event on

February 12. In the near future, we expect to launch user streaming on our MVP

and introduce several additional features."

In addition to rebroadcasting feature, P2L started an early adopters program

for streamers and fans in their official chats that allows users held their own

streams to provide full live streaming experience and to not limit it with only

rebroadcasting.

While the blockchain industry is brimming with gaming projects, Play2Live

offers a differentiated proposition, creating a unique economy for a streaming

platform based on a revenue-sharing model. The project team is positive about

offering streamers and viewers an opportunity to better interact with each

other and monetize their content. Altogether, the streamers will be able to

monetize their content in 11 ways as opposed to the 4 or 5 ways available on

existing streaming platforms. They can earn right from their very first stream,

regardless of the size of their follower base. The platform offers top-notch

mechanisms for the streamers to boost their follower count, such as a system of

interactive tasks during streams, betting services, enhanced communication in

the chat, and other engaging activities!

On Play2Live, viewers can monetize their content in five ways (compared to zero

elsewhere in the eSports video-streaming industry). They can earn income by

watching adverts (the platform is ad-free by default), performing tasks set by

streamers, voting for content, and sharing their internet bandwidth via

peer-to-peer CDN. Viewers can place bets with bookmakers without leaving the

P2L site and can purchase games using LUC tokens received through various

activities on the platform. Ultimately, P2L offers 15 sources of revenue, which

is three times more than the current streaming industry leaders.

Alexey Burdyko visited South Korea, where eSports culture was born, and held a

speech about his vision and the prospects of the project. During a meet-up with

investors and eSports community members, Alexey discussed in detail the

platform and how P2L will address the pitfalls of the streaming industry. The

meet-up took place on January 26 in Seoul. For more details, please visit the

Founded in 2017, Play2Live aims to merge blockchain technology with streaming

services. Its mission is to create an ecosystem where every participant -- the

viewer, the streamer, and the eSports tournament organizer -- is part of a

seamless system that favors interaction among viewers and the diversity of

monetization schemes. Essentially, everybody can be part of the peer-to-peer

interaction, and everybody -- even the viewer -- is able to earn money.

Play2Live uses a token called Level Up Coin (LUC), which acts as the sole mean

of payment within the system. It can be easily converted to other

cryptocurrencies or to fiat money through a gateway/API.

The public pre-sale for the LUC token started on January 26 and lasts until

February 5. The token sale event begins on February 12 and ends on March 5. For
