Video Publishers and Content Creators Get Paid in BCH at Cinema Cash
There’s a new BCH-fueled video service called Cinema.cash that allows users to upload content and be rewarded for posts. There are two types of revenue streams that content creators can utilize in order to get paid in crypto – tips and pay-per-view sessions. Tipping is set to default for all videos, and with pay-per-view, users have to pay beforehand to watch the content. Registering is fairly straightforward as users don’t need to use an email or verify their identity.
Only a username and password is required to sign up to both websites. Cinema Cash has a wide array of videos including subjects like action, documentary, comedy, cryptocurrencies, and science fiction. The creators also designed a fundraising section so users can publish videos in order to raise some money for an effort or someone in need. Porn.cash is the same exact setup as Cinema Cash but obviously the content is more adult themed.
While taking a gander at the websites, visitors can see that both platforms have a decent amount of videos so far. Users can publish Youtube videos alongside Twitch TV and Vimeo movies as well. The Cinema Cash team says that with the ease of publishing content, creators can have their own stage. In addition to using BCH, the creators of the websites plan to encourage tipping with a token called “Cash.”
“To incentivize tipping, we are also giving away chances to win Cash tokens for every tipping done,” explains the application developer. “Cash tokens holders are all entitled to a share of the platform profits based on the percentage of Cash tokens they hold — Essentially, we are giving the platform away to the Bitcoin Cash community.”
Tipping and Pay-Per-View
In the member’s options section users can see a few tabs that allow them to interact with the site’s content. For instance, there’s an “upload video” tab which allows you to link a video to the website with some characterization. There are two payment types to choose from when uploading content, “free” and “pay-per-view.” From here the user can add a video title, description, video URL, a screenshot, categories, and keywords. The application has a native wallet that only allows withdrawals. When tipping or paying for a movie, the platform will deploy a BCH address that can be copied and a QR code that can be scanned. The withdrawal section will display earnings statistics, and balances for both BCH and Cash tokens.
Overall the application has a decent amount of videos for such a new platform. Being basically a clone of Cinema Cash, the creator’s other project, Porn Cash, also has a lot of video material. The adult site has a whole lot more movies where members have to pay to watch and it’s likely the pay-per-view model performs better than on the ordinary site. On Reddit, BCH fans seem to be pleased with the two new video sites. The platform developer says there should be a more official announcement concerning the project development. Users should also note that both Cinema Cash and Porn Cash are currently in beta.
