At Amsterdam’s Volkshotel on 7 November, 2018, Livepeer CTO Eric Tang, gave this presentation on scaling decentralized video which included a live demo.

During the talk, Eric said:

We will start getting into the realm of treating video infrastructure as a true commons, as something that can truly be shared as a commodity for everyone who is connected to the Internet, not dissimilar to everyone sharing the roads that they drive on or sharing the air that they breathe.
