Uncensored Streaming and iGaming Platform to Launch on Solana
A new platform called Solstaketv is launching an uncensored streaming and iGaming service on Solana. The project aims to combine live streaming with fast, on-chain betting and permissionless prediction markets. The platform targets a crossover audience interested in crypto betting, AI, and meme culture.
- The platform is founded by Stephen Ronald Bell and utilizes Livepeer for its decentralized streaming infrastructure, aiming to provide a service free from censorship. - Solstaketv will feature token-gated access to streams, live on-chain tipping, and instant, non-custodial payouts for creators directly to their wallets. - The revenue model allocates 80% of earnings directly to the creators, with the remaining 20% protocol fee being split between burning, staking rewards, and the treasury to create a deflationary pressure on the native STV token. - A Dutch auction for the STV token is scheduled for March 2026, with the platform currently in a beta stage. - The popular American podcast "No Jumper" has been confirmed as an official streaming partner, signaling a move to attract established creators and their audiences. - The platform is specifically targeting creators in high-ARPU (Average Revenue Per User) verticals that often face demonetization on other platforms, including iGaming and other controversial content. - Initial iGaming features are planned to roll out in the weeks following the launch, beginning with on-chain raffles and followed by full licensed casino features. - The platform's native STV token will be used for direct fan payments, and the system will feature oracle-pegged USD pricing to mitigate volatility risk for creators' earnings.
