About
The problem it solves **Creators are getting screwed**, badly. Twitch, Patreon, and OF regularly skim 20-30% of every dollar, censor content on a whim, and track every subscriber through IP addresses and payment processors. Fans want privacy but get doxxed. The creator economy keeps getting hit after hit. **Something has to *change.***
How it's made
Challenges we ran into We hit a few real technical walls, but the biggest ones were: **Cross-chain complexity:** ENS lived on Ethereum Sepolia while the app ran on Base Sepolia, so we had to explicitly pin every contract read/write to the right network or things silently broke. **Swarm publishing and retrieval:** getting uploads working in the browser was not enough — the Bee node had to stay server-side, and Swarm feeds turned out to overwrite state unless we merged and rewrote the full feed each time. **Video processing in the browser:** ffmpeg.wasm needed extra browser isolation headers, which caused a lot of deployment friction before transcoding would run consistently. **In the end, we fixed it by separating what had to happen on-chain, what had to happen server-side, and what could safely happen in the browser.** That gave us a stable upload, subscribe, and playback flow that actually works in production.
