If the viewers get paid, and the content creator get paid ("up to 6 times more"), where does the money come from? I assume when you say viewers get paid to watch, they're watching videos made by content creator and not watching ads, right?

Hi there Miiike, thank you very much for your reply and question.

GoldTube is currently updating our web content and our whitepaper to highlight more on Watch-To-Earn feature.
I would like to provide some explanation and insight of GoldTube platform through this reply.

GoldTube content creator can earn up to 6x more in Revenue Per Mille (RPM: Revenue per 1000 views)
Background:
The actual rates an advertiser pays on YouTube varies, usually between $0.10 to $0.30 per view, but averages out at $0.18 per view.
On Average the YouTube channel can receive $18 per 1,000 ad views.
Meaning, on average only 180 people out of 1000 people watched the ad in order for the content creator to receive ad payout.

With GoldTube:
- We promise content creators that our GoldTube community will watch every advert shown to them.
- Viewers will receive payout from the advertiser as well as content creators
- Funneling watch-to-earn viewers into content to boost earnings

@Miiiike, thank you very much for your question.
Hope the brief explanation will help you imagine our platform better.

I'll start by saying that J didn't mean to be rude, but unfortunately, I actually failed to understand the reply as a whole. Your calculation somewhat didn't made sense to me, allow me to break them down to avoid misunderstanding.

On average, content creator gained 0.18$ for each ad watched by their viewers. If on average a channel can get 1,000 views, wouldn't it means the channel owner (content creator) got 0.18x1,000=180$ instead of 18$, or 18:1,000= 0.018$ for each ad instead of 0.18$

Next, I failed to understand the connection and relevance between the calculation and the sentence following it. Like... at all. I failed to see the purpose of that sentence other than to further contributing to the miscalculation.

If on average a creator got 180 ad-viewers for each of their video, it means they got 180x0.18=32.4$ per ad per video (the number is nowhere on your post, so (again) I failed to see the relevance of 180-out-of-1,000-people part).

I also feel the need to ask where does the entire rate and calculation and statistic (the average views, average payment, etc.) came from. Is this an official data released by YouTube or were you build them from an assumption?

Next, about your feature,

I barely have any idea how YouTube works and what base they use to calculate payment and what kind of views made by a content creator's viewers considered as a paid-view and non-paid-view. Was it the duration must be done by a viewer to make a creator eligible to bw credited for payment? 5 seconds? 10 seconds? Or is it if a viewers didn't watch the whole ads, the creator didn't credited for pay at all? And wouldn't the unskippable ads YouTube currently utilize kinda solve the problem and thus made your feature rather arguably useless?

I'll limit the discussion to this part first before moving to the part from viewers side.

As an intermezzo... responding your reply to @bakasabo, shouldn't the "official" color of porn is black and orange? LOL. IYKYK.
