Verasity is a next-generation video sharing platform designed to liberate creators and benefit viewers by rewarding users with a cryptocurrency called VERA that is easily convertible into traditional cryptocurrencies.
Every video view on Verasity translates into a fraction of newly minted coins: VERA is minted and distributed to platform users daily as rewards based on Proof of Viewβ’. Over time, as VERA accumulates, it can be cashed out for traditional cryptocurrencies or spent on donations to content creators, channel subscriptions, pay-per-view purchases or staking in favorite video channels on Verasity for future monthly dividend payouts.
The Proof of View properties and a fair coin reward distribution algorithm are built into the VERA coin in order to promote currency appreciation though growth of value exchange within the Verasity video sharing
economy ecosystem.
