WeTube DAC - decentralized media provider - the future YouTube

[betax]

They published some white papers then, I had a few chats with them. I move on due to work commitments but never heard anything from them since. Very nice guys :)

and this on WeTube/BitCloud:

- I remember chatting with Shawn at Storj a year or so ago about streaming video. It's definitely got interest.
Peertracks and WeTube would be an awesome combination, a powerful force. The media around that would be fantasmagoric.

From 2gather: "The view layer for 2gather is an Angular application which is ran in any compatible web browser. The user interface (aka, view layer) makes JS calls back to the Decerver hosted middlewear layer which provides a routing framework, method framework, and connection to both the erisdb and ipfs systems."

Angular? - how about React?
Calls back to a server? - sounds centralized.
Streaming video? - not mentioned.

edit: I'd also like to point out that they recently decided to move Eris from the UK to America. To quote Black Dynamite:
"Leaving the UK to move to the US is like jumping out of a frying pan of surveillance and jumping into a hell of surveillance and government overreach. Why don't they move into NSA Headquarters or Area 51? BD"

I could definitely see both running on the MUSE chain with different front ends. It would have the advantage to use the same bitAssets which would be very convenient and would provide additional liquidity.

My thoughts exactly.

Has there been any actual collaboration so far?

Qora needs their own thread on the btstalk "Partners" area IMO. I want to keep the excitement of their BitShares collaboration going too.

We've collaborated on a Beyond Bitcoin Hangout so far. ;)

I don't think we'll be seeing any ACCT in the future between the two, especially considering Dan's most recent comments on the matter.

But what we may see is BTS eventually adopt some form of decentralized social media solution perhaps along the lines of what Qora is doing and perhaps with the assistance of some of the people currently working with Qora.

However, that's just me speculating. I have no inside info and if I did I wouldn't say. ;)

I think we'll be hearing more Qora talk on Beyond Bitcoin in the near future.  The next version is "looking very choice".

I'd love to see a decentralized youtube as a Partner with BitShares. A major media opp.

Found WeTube & BitShares mentioned together here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1uil15/could_a_decentralized_youtube_ever_work_with/ceil3co

Aether is another one (http://getaether.net). They're a decentralized forum. With all this reddit censorship going on, eyes will be looking for dapp opps in this space.

Hello, this idea is in absolutely good progress.
I am right now writing the  protocol with the help of some developers and thinkers, specially Kyle Torpey.

We are separating the protocol from the interface itself. We are calling the protocol Bitcloud, and the first application based on it Wetube.

PLEASE JOIN US

You can see how we are writing the protocol here:

https://github.com/wetube/bitcloud/blob/master/bitcloud.org

Please join us on #wetube (freenode) to discuss everything.
