🔑 Key Takeaways:
◆ Myco is aiming to revolutionize the streaming industry by creating a “viewer economy” where users can earn rewards for watching content, empowering both viewers and content creators.
◆ The platform has grown rapidly, reaching 10 million users and streaming major sports events like the Cricket World Cup. They aim to have 14 million users by the end of the World Cup.
◆ Myco plans to move its entire video infrastructure on-chain by the end of 2025, though this presents significant technical challenges in terms of scalability and performance.
◆ They are working on developing a regulated crowdfunding platform to allow viewers to invest in film and TV projects, starting in the UAE with plans to expand to other regions.
◆ Myco’s approach focuses on first building a large user base with earning rewards, before introducing more complex Web3 features like crowdfunding - essentially using popular content to onboard users to Web3 gradually.
