The Pop Network (the “network” or “platform”) will be a decentralized approach to monetized video distribution using direct micropayments and token incentives instead of relying on advertising and paid subscriptions. The potential result is a system where Creators form direct relationships with their consumers, are liberated creatively, and get economically rewarded in a fair, transparent manner. This new system may give Viewers more choice by making long-tail content economically viable, allow deeper connections with Creators to form, and ensure the people making up the network share in the tokenized value they create rather than having that value funneled to massive, centralized corporations. In the same way Bitcoin, peer-to-peer electronic cash, forces a profound re-examination of the modern financial system, The Pop Network may ultimately be a tectonic shift in how humans create, distribute, and consume media.
