DeStream.io is a decentralized global platform that aims to serve as the main connection point for streamers and viewers. According to the website, the platform will help maximize “the productivity of streamers, diversify their activities and secure start-up capital”.

The MVP is being actively developed as well, the structure of the platform is fully prepared and the user journey is effectively predetermined, the last updates on the platform can be checked right on our Github.

Moreover, the project has launched its own cryptocurrency – DST – which will serve as a means of payment for the platform’s services alongside the PumaPay (PMA) token. Attracted by the flexibility of the PullPayment Protocol put forward by PumaPay, DeStream management decided to adopt the cryptocurrency billing solution and encourage its streamers to include it among their payment options.

Facilitating a “pull” action on the blockchain for the first time, the PullPayment Protocol supports a wide range of billing practices such as recurring payments, pay-per-view (ideal for streaming services), shared and restricted transaction types that were not possible with cryptocurrencies before.

The number of global streaming service users and influencers is growing, and these leaders will soon have an opportunity to accept PMA payments for their services. Having DeStream.io as an Early Adopter brings us closer to our goal of turning the PumaPay token into a de facto means of payment”, said Yoav Dror, PumaPay CEO.

"And the biggest problem is the high interest rates on the payments. The centralized systems today take a minimum 1% in fees, plus additional fees in the platform and in the end streamers lose up to 30% from the amount they get. We'll to solve this problem.”, said Tachat Igityan, DeStream.io Founder.
