TEL-AVIV, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / November 11, 2019 / BLOCKTV, a broadcast news outlet dedicated to the blockchain and digital asset economy has announced the listing of its native BLTV Token on Bittrex Global on November 21.
BLOCKTV is the industry leader in providing video coverage of the rapidly growing DLT and cryptocurrency ecosystem, with daily news, analysis and commentary segments, broadcasting 24 hours a day, seven days a week on www.blocktv.com and through its dozens of distribution partners.
BLTV, an ERC-20 token operating on the Ethereum Blockchain, is aimed to power a new token economy combining content creators, consumers and advertisers.
The BLTV token enables the operation of an innovative business model for funding quality journalism by removing much of the uncertainty when it comes to user interaction with content and ads.
Eye Prove Technology is an in-house developed proof of engagement mechanism that delivers instant tracking and remuneration for users that scan ads that appear on BLOCKTV's player.
Viewers can then use the tokens they've earned in the Engagement Center, a user interface that allows them to leave comments, vote on content, nominate and rank features and segments that will impact certain elements of BLOCKTV's broadcast coverage.
"As news organizations around the world scramble to look for alternative models to fund their newsrooms, we believe we've found a way to provide maximum transparency and cooperation between the different stakeholders. Over the next year we plan to complete development of our proprietary technological features and roll them out to our community," said Aviram Elad, CEO of BLOCKTV.
"BLOCKTV is determined to remain an independent and forward-looking actor in the hi-tech news industry," said BLOCKTV's Editor-in-Chief Ron Friedman
"We're broadcasting to a young, critical, savvy and engaged audience of early adopters who we believe can recognize the reasoning behind and the potential of such a model and we trust that we can improve and expand with them as partners."
