Publisher Deployment

The Edge Activity Token ($EAT) is a crypto token on the Polygon
Blockchain
. As you watch BizTV you are paid in $EAT. The more
you watch, the more you earn.
Want to earn even more? Turn on the sound, its that simple.
Want a preview on how it works, watch this video.

$EAT Legal Status

$EAT is a Utility Token which means that it is not a security. $EAT has been reviewed by Walkers Law firm in London, United Kingdom.
Using the interactive livestreams requires the EDGE Player. It is a HTML5 video player which can be linked to your existing HLS stream from your CDN. You do not need to use our EDGE Decentralized CDN to get started. An example of your HLS video stream from your CDN is here:

This is a simple step which requires the code to be installed
from the Wallet Management Page.
Watch this video here to see how to deploy Watch2Earn and
manage wallets on a channel by channel basis.

Business Model (flow of funds)

The business model allows publishers to self manage each channel and deposit any amount of funds into the wallet. In the current (or first) month, 50% of your wallet will be distributed. 37.5% to your viewers and 12.5% to EDGE. 50% of the remaining funds will rollover for the next months usage.
The allows the publisher to manage engagement and the budget and also helps the $EAT price grow as its an automatic staking mechanism.

Adding Funds & Pay Rates

Add funds to your wallet using the Wallet Management Page. Viewers are paid at different rates, depending on the viewer.

Click deposit and add the tokens to your channel(s).

SMART TVs

Integrate Watch2Earn into your Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV and more

On your backend you’d need to give users a place to enter a wallet address to receive the EAT they’ll earn – if you’ve got users in a database that’s likely just a 40 character column.

On your frontend, on the web, you’d probably want to add something like the following to allow them to enter & modify On our w2e wallet management page you’d create wallets – we create a different wallet for every channel – and then deposit EAT and MATIC (MATIC is used for gas and goes a long way.)  On your backend you’d need to associate the wallet address from our publisher page with your channel(s).

When a viewer starts watching:

  • create a websocket connection to our backend – wss://faices-api.edgevideo.com
  • supply the channel’s wallet address by sending JSON like the following:
    `{“type”: “channel”, “value”: “0x90B10109840FCEC8A890B786A0986B3304EA9492”}`
  • supply the viewer’s wallet address by sending JSON like the following:
    `{“type”: “wallet”, “value”: “0x851400912c070D2CBd78dcA46244f588c97710BB”}`
  • set the viewer’s rate by sending JSON like the following:
    `{“type”: “rate”, “value”: 150}`

Rate is the rate at which a viewer accumulates score – for the web we vary this based on whether the tab is in the background, the video is muted, the video is fullscreen etc. but that’s up to you (the minimum is 0 and the maximum is 600.)  On that websocket connection you’ll periodically get information about the viewer’s offchain earnings (how much is yet to be sent) and we’ve got a different APi you could use to get their onchain balance (demo.)
