RIP DLive - They are leaving the Steem Blockchain - First Thoughts.
I really don't know what to say...
Thank you @dlive for the upvotes and support this year, I wish you guys much luck with your new venture.
Let me know what you think?

It is what it is right? But no matter what they have helped a lot of creators and the platform was always good. So I am thankful for all the support they gave me and wish them all the best :)
I'm sure it's a bummer for a lot of people but for me personally? Meh... I like @dtube a lot better anyway. I just hope it's not the first domino.
I am right there with you!
Cool. The more I think about it, the more I think that this is a great opportunity for @dtube if they step up to the plate right now and start hitting more home runs with more and more new features. All the attention is on them for a while... If they snooze, someone else will fill @dlive's shoes and @dtube will have to share the video content again here on steem.
That is so very true! I hope DTube comes out with new features. That would be awesome.
Something better and less buggy will come along....

Someone is always working on the next best thing... We'll see who gets it done.
I don't think its the first domino. Have you read @meno's comment on their post. It looks like this was their plan all along.
Thanks, I read it now. Hmmm. Very interesting and even more reason to ignore Dlive now. Let them try and fail, whatever...
@dtube, it's your time to shine and start adding new and better working features asap...
Will not for sure!
They are just moving to their own blockchain so they can make more $$$.
Currently top streamer has 20 viewers, good luck on the new blockchain...
I'm gonna go ahead and drop this stank in here..
This is the major issue Dlive highlighted on steemit platform...where voting get manipulated by Bots and good content remain at bottom side of steemit....up to some level i agree with them...After all it is their choice.
Great job covering the situation! Personally I'm pretty neutral about the situation. @dlive did a lot of cool things for the STEEM blockchain and showed us something that was possible. I always expected some of these projects to end up on their own chain. At the end of the day it can become hard to share the reward pool with others. I don't know if their governance model and payout system will work over there but for the most part I look at it like this.
We can join Lino and upload over there as well as on DTube and earn on two blockchains for the same video and extend our reach. Maybe it ends up being something big or maybe they can't get the wealth base to the token so the payouts are negligible. Working with Vice right now it is very clear how crucial those first few weeks can be on launching a chain properly and not ending up with super whales.
We will see what happens .
What it sounds like to me is LINO had a 20 million dollar ICO, then they used a portion of that money to buy DLive. The guy selling DLive is a part of the LINO team.
Yeah that's what it sounds like to
These platforms just can't grow enough on Steem due to restricted registrations on Steem. Until this gets faster, services like Dtube and Dlive cannot get enough traction.
Of course, that’s set to change the day they leave, as HardFork 20 takes effect and would have allowed them to register plenty of new accounts directly themselves through their own site.
As others have pointed out and have explained thoroughly in other articles, evidence is clear dLive always intended to only use Steem as a test and early marketing. Their leaving was preplanned and has little to nothing to do with any shortcomings of Steem.
Well...... 👋 Bye.....
I never used Dlive. I'm happy with D.tube, as long as they stick around. I think Steemit is a little more resilient than that. There's a pretty strong community here. Yea, there are disagreements, but nothing we can't work through.
