The AIRTIME EXTENSION is here
Monetize your time while browsing the web anywhere!


DOWNLOAD NOW
BitTubeApp.com


Introducing the BitTube AirTime browser extension:
From the team that is bringing you the bit.tube video platform,
comes the next evolution in ad-free Internet monetization!



Available for

Chrome
Brave (latest version)
Firefox & Opera (in review)
Safari, Edge & Mobile (coming soon)






Mobile Wallets

iOS wallet
Android wallet





Extension Features




Referral system

Get 5 TUBEs every time someone registers using your link and verifies their account.
You will find your link in 'Options' once you have been verified yourself.



The AirTime extension explained

BitTube’s monetization model is called AirTime.
It is an ad-free solution paying users and publishers based on the time spent
watching content. This system is currently live on the bit.tube video platform.

This extension enables AirTime to run anywhere on the web. It pays TUBEs to users
and publishers (websites, social accounts, merchants etc.) based on the time spent
on any web page. It includes an integrated wallet, ad blocker and referral system.

The extension has special support for popular platforms, allowing users to monetize their
own social accounts such as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. It embeds instant donation
buttons on these platforms to tip users with a single click. The system generates wallets
for every new publisher automatically, and informs them about their earnings from AirTime
and donations. Additionally, webmasters will be able to monetize their own website,
using a special module that tracks their guests’ AirTime (who themselves do not have
the extension). Finally, we're working on being able to buy TUBEs through the extension
directly at market price, having no dependence on exchanges to buy into the ecosystem.

The goal of BitTube is mainstream mass adoption through simplicity, accessibility
and an easy user experience. TUBE is the lifeblood of the ecosystem and for any
currency distribution is vital. Usage means value. The strategy with the extension
is spreading TUBEs in as many (unwitting) hands as possible to reach millions of people.
This will introduce more and more users to the BitTube ecosystem as a whole.



Demand by design

The extension rewards users for browsing the Internet. It means that you will always
always carry a nonzero TUBE balance, which can be spent anywhere TUBE is accepted. In practice,
through the AirTime extension, it turns TUBE into a recurring source for shopping discounts and
donations. One of the big challenges is not letting TUBE succumb to its own inflation.
We must create strong demand so that its price grows according to its utility.

Now, here is the clever part. When choosing to make a TUBE payment, our upcoming gateway
will allow you to top off any insufficient balance automatically during checkout, the additional
coin being purchased (i.e. creating buy pressure) by us on the market. For example, say you’re
buying a $100 gift and you have $10 worth of TUBE from browsing the web. During checkout,
$90 worth of TUBEs will be bought at market price to settle the payment automatically.

This is demand by design. Not to mention all the utility AirTime can potentially add to games
and mobile apps, for instance as universal in-game currency and microtransactions.
The possibilities are endless and they are real.



WooCommerce Payment Gateway

To kick things off, we have developed a payment gateway for WooCommerce, which is a widely used e-commerce plugin for WordPress.

  - Hosting persistent video nodes (IPFS+torrent): selectively host videos in return for a share of their AirTime.
  - Fundamental features for the new platform, decentralized moderation system (for rewards), account progression/reputation system.
  - Prize pools for top creators, investors and referrals.

it told you very clear already on page 50 when i got informed that there is a thread here, i am not in dept by you in any case, i don't need to proof anything, you wan't something from me, then behave normal ask me normal and i will help you!  

you didn't and you continued with your shit show, i told you also the consequences when you continue like that, do you really think you can extort and force me.

since you continued i am not going in anycase to help you, i told you can talk with my lawyers so easy it is! why your are denying it? you are welcome who ever wan't something, i am available here with my lawyers office@ra-hoefler.at waiting for you.

you have something to say, then don't hide your self behind a avatar and take also responsibility for the extortion and assumption that you are doing.

you are behaving like a kid, he can't get his lollypop, ohhh so lets start a shit show, shame on you!

futher more, marking my avater to give it less trust because you climbed the "legend level" because you have nothing else todo then shitposting the whole day, again i can just move my head and tel you, shame on you!

comon don't hide your self, show us who you are and stop this game in the dark.

why you are denying the legal process?

What I have to say (and have said already) does not require me to know your name, not does it require you to know my name. You made claims that appear to be lies, you need to prove they're not, or you can keep lying if you prefer to look like a scammer. It's up to you. I asked you to post the pictures, you're threatening with lawyers, surely that's not normal, is it?

And really - if you actually had talked to a lawyer the first advice would have been to shut up and stop digging your hole. So take an aspirin, cool down, and post those pictures, or go actually talk to your lawyers and have them send me a letter that I could frame and put up on the wall.




Your self-importance is unbecoming. I need to prove I'm innocent to you because why, you say so? Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? And no, the pictures won't do any favors, you would just turn around the story to claim that i am the scammer,  because I'm clearly the only sucker who bought the damn thing and the scammer jumped on the opportunity to frame me.

If you're so clever you'd realize you're the useful idiot here. What you're doing is slanderous, based on nothing but assumptions on top of assumptions. Why? You know this hurts my reputation and now after all what you did, you expect from me to help you, there is no reason anymore, and since I don't owe you a damn thing my only recourse is legal action. Is that so hard to understand for your mind?

some fairy tale devices that have 0 evidence of:

1. A working product

"The bittube guy" is actually the only person (other than the scammer, if they're not the same person) who claimed to have tested a partially working product. So despite your valiant  6-paragraph attempt to deflect, he can only blame himself for this debacle. If he's such an astute businessman as you're claiming then I hope he will realize that it's not worth damaging the reputation of his business by covering up a scam.

Let's start with high-resolution pictures of the device from all angles, with a current date and the businessman's name on a sheet of paper. Same with the shipping label. Not a huge request, is it? Unless he doesn't have the device.

So, if you're against decentralization and censorship, why does your moderator keep removing thumbnails?

You mean _for_ decentralization and against censorship, right?

Copyright infringement is against the law, I'm sure you know this so if you're trying to be smart, try harder. If you mean those pornographic thumbnails and profile pics, just think for a second. Those get us thrown off the android and apple appstore, same goes for copyrighted stuff. It's already happened once and lawyers are bloody expensive. Right now we move everything pornographic to xxx.bit.tube anyway so it doesn't show on normal bit.tube or the app. We don't actually remove videos unless we have to.

Yep, sorry, I meant centralization.

Nope, neither one of them (pornographic thumbnails and profile pics).

But anyway, I see there's no point of arguing here.

Started out pretty nice, I truly believed in this project from the very start, I even did a translation of this thread.

But, as it turns, you're not much different from viuly.

And there's no need to treat me like a person uploading copyrighted content just because I asked a simple question.

Cheers!

How passive aggressive. At least provide some examples so we might understand each other. Tell us where we have wronged, and we'll correct it.

But if all you're interested in is virtue signaling your moral high ground, you've rather overestimated yourself.

This gave it away. It isn't true in the slightest and you know it. Try again.

does anyone know the remote node?
seed3.bit.tube:24182

if you install the latest wallet https://github.com/ipbc-dev/bittube-wallet-gui/releases from scratch it actually selects a remote node by default.

some poeple should be really carefull what they are saying in here, lawyers will have fun to protect my rights.

you can ask me in a normal way, without this shitty garbage.

i told on our discord cleary don‘t buy it, because they dont work, also this guy exodussian, in a dm conversation, i told him don‘t buy it! against all what i told him, he thinked he is clever and can reboot the device every 20min, i am not responsible for your decision, i have not put the gun on your head to buy it, and i have not did anykind of advertisent for it,  for no one of you! you decided by your self, like i did and we are all scammed, what a surpise in this crypto world, scam from ico, tg groups and and and.

and when you copy paste images, then copy paste also the sections where i am saying dont buy it because they dont work.

and what kind of stupid idiot you must be? this scammer put so much effort to be hidden on all, and to think that  i have something todo with this in public.. why should be somebody so stupid!!

No why would anyone put video on a blockchain? A blockchain is just a very, very slow database, this would be horrible.
Our blockchain is used for the cryptocurrency TUBE. The video data is on IPFS, it's decentralized storage sort of like bittorrent but more advanced. Everyone on bit.tube is a storage node instantly, it works automatically in the browser. That's the magic trick, you don't have to download anything.
As for your question, videos can be unpublished when they violate copyright, we have to abide by the law, we don't want to end up like the pirate bay. But this is a centralization and censorship issue so later we want to put the community in charge of copyright review & reports/disputes so that part is more decentralized. But we have to build that in the next months.

These are basic questions though so please check the FAQ on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/BitTube/comments/8lk12r/faq_frequently_asked_questions/ . If you have any more question let me know.

There is just a discussion going on about backdoors that provide the creators of smart contract applications to shut them down even though they claim it is decentralized. Will your app be censorship resistance or is there any way for you to intervene?
i have no idea what this is about.. our app is not a smart contract same way the youtube app or windows is not a smart contract.

do you have more info so i can answer this better?

Do you plan to work like a Youtube? Can anybody post any content on your blockchain? I thought it works that way and then my question is whether it is possible to remove any content from the blockchain and censor it.

If I have a NVIDIA then how do I begin mining? In what sequence are the steps? First, run the expert mode and then make a batch file with "--noNVIDIA --openCLVendor NVIDIA --noCPU"? Or for the first time immediately run a batch file with keys and then already set up?
What you did was correct I think, first time you say expert Yes, you go through all the steps that sets up your wallet and pool. Then after you can always change these settings because they are stored in text files in the miner folder.

as for your error, increase your page file (virtual memory) to at least 8GB (or 11GB) per card depending what you have.
this pc -> properties -> advanced system settings -> advanced tab -> performance settings -> advanced tab -> Virtual memory Change -> set page file custom size -> reboot.

Join the discord and the dev will take a look if this doesn't work.

Hey, and when will the support NVIDIA???

Bittube dead for mining.
quite the opposite, mining became much better with the hard fork.

@bankomat_t666 you can mine with the bittube miner using opencl. make a batchfile (notepad save as .bat in the same folder) with the following:

start /b bittube-miner --noNVIDIA --openCLVendor NVIDIA --noCPU

and run that instead of bittube-miner.exe

Did i unterstand this correctly from this article?
https://medium.com/@Bit.Tube/bittube-before-and-after-airtime-e67c113045b2

You get paid for watching videos?

If so, then with the right marketing and a more polished website, this could take over youtube in a short period.
correct. this friday we even deploy an update so you can watch Youtube videos on bittube via the youtube search API. A wallet will be automatically created corresponding to each original youtube channel and they can claim it by making a bittube account and verifying their youtube credentials. This is part of the strategy to get youtubers to join bittube. From friday we have all the content you want. Smiley (and  yes it's legal, no problem with yt).

https://twitter.com/SjemH/status/1016828627013586944

In the meantime we're also tightening up the UI, it needs some work but it's easy so don't worry. Can't wait for next month, Airtime will be a very good thing for creators. Smiley

Mac mining is not supported. On a macbook definitely it is not recommended, you will cook your laptop. Consider it only for desktop. Right now no Mac support support.

After this last Anti-CPU fork I lost confidence. Now I am not able to open wallet 2.0.0.2 under Win10 64bit. I want to sell all mined coins, since TUBE/BTC price is still falling down for nearly 3 months. It is no sense to HOLD.  IPBC (BitTube) is great idea, but the problem was not on mining site. The CryptoCoins are not created for miners. They are created for people which should pay with these coins.The fact is, that same amount of coins is mined every day (regardless of algo, regardless difficulty), so SELL side is still same, but on the buyers side demand is still falling down. So BitTube needs better media content, better PR. This is the KEY.

Trust me we know all this. We're currently setting up for an exposure/adoption push when airtime goes live (block 140k). We have the plan, we have the tools. It just doesn't happen overnight and the execution needs to be perfect.

As for sell pressure, i think you missed the point of the fork. Sell pressure and price manipulation comes from many coins in a few concentrated hands (including aggressive CPU mining botnets) who dump on the market. The new algo ensures the same amount of coins are shared among many more miners and we can already see this. Sure price jumps up and down but that's because the market is illiquid, it doesn't require any volume to push it up or down.

You can sell the coins you spent a long time mining and burning electricity for and maybe buy back 10% lower but no one knows if that will happen. I think it's silly, you spend all this time mining it and can't stomach some downside, while the risk/reward from this entry is very high. We are in the same boat remember. Be patient. Smiley

Please join discord to get your wallet issue fixed. When we find a solution i'll post it here for others to see.
