Well thank you. To be very transparent, HiveStreams is not very "decentralized" per se, but then it doesn't really need to be. It doesn't store anything much except whatever you write and put as profile images and info on your channel page, the streams are just using my server as a hub but could be simultaneously sent to any site at the same time, youtube, twitch, FB, twitter, wherever they consume and forward rtmp video feeds, and the logins are all via keychain or hivesigner so I dont store that either.

Its really just a site to connect users to streamers and have a little chat, also not saved except in the chat window for a while, but not in any kind of database, thats done with websockets and a service called "pusher" that just sends the text to everybody and back and forth.

So if my site when down, nothing would be "lost" really, except the convenience of finding and watching hive-centric streamers with hive-centric confirmed names/logins and chatting and watching with other confirmed hive names so you know you are watching and talking to the real hive people per their login on keychain or hivesigner to get into it.

Complicated to explain, but there is nothing to really "decentralize" - even the transfers and money exchanged by tipping or memberships to channels are just pushed to the keychains to validate on the chain and transmit.

So I guess its not only not decentalized, it doesnt even really have a center in the first place haha!
