Content Monetization Reinvented
SleekPlay
These days, almost all of our activity is made easy with the help of technology. One of them is smartphone. This small-albeit-powerful and handy device had helped us immeasurably in the many fields of our lives. In terms of business, smartphones are helpful in sending or replying e-mails and doing or receiving calls. They also provide great help in arranging vacations for holidays, assisting us in buying flight tickets and book hotels. Last but not least, they also provide for our daily entertainment needs, such as gaming and streaming music and video.
When it comes to gaming as a form of entertainment in our smartphones, sometimes we end up getting and watching advertisements, which might interfere with our playtime. The silver lining is, more often than not, advertisements in mobile games at times provide us with extra item/coin/gems for character upgrade, level up or game progressing, so hey, advertisements in mobile games aren’t that bad. However, the same can’t be said for when we stream music or video – depending on the content’s duration, we could end up watching up to 10 advertisements while we stream – and there’s a good chance that some of them can’t be skipped.
As annoying of how these advertisements interfere with our quality and entertainment time may sound, after all, advertisements weren’t made for our inconvenience and our inconvenience only. Content creators – people who made the games we play, the music we listen, and the videos we watch – depend on their advertisements getting watch so they can gain incentives for their work. This also means that no advertisements means no incentives and no incentives can lead to no more content we can enjoy in the future. Some content creators have noticed this issue, and provided an advertisement-free service without sacrificing the content’s quality or performance – all we have to do is pay a sum of money for the related service providing applications. A “subscribe” feature, where ads-free services payment is done each month, also exists, like the one on twitch.tv platform.
Now, we’re faced with two options: free content, but with the interference of advertisements; or pay a sum of money to remove those pesky ads. Both of them present problems. The former, while free, might have a lower content enjoyment level. The latter means we must pay up. Not everyone has the resource and money to pay off especially multiple services.
Sleekplay addresses these problems, and was inspired by the innovation towards incentives for content creators or developer. Advertisement in entertainment services now can be improved – and possibly removed – by using blockchain and cryptocurrency technology. Sleekplay offers to utilize the unused computing power of our devices for the blockchain tech, which will rewards users and giving content creators incentives they needed. This is made possible when the blockchain tech is aimed at applications that have a long running or usage duration, such as streaming platforms and videogames.
Bottom line, we’ll face no more interruption that is advertisement while watching videos, streaming, or playing games. In addition, we no longer have to pay that sum of money to make sure the application or service is ads free. Depending on our app or service usage duration, we will be paid instead! To top it all off, it is our devices that will do the computing process for the rewards and incentives, no manual control needed.
Here are some aspects of Sleekplay.
- Attractive Revenue Model. With Sleekplay, developers can provide their users with quality content without interfering with the user’s experience.
- Incentivized Engagement. As said before, one of Sleekplay’s goals is to encourage people to use application or services at a longer duration in order to receive rewards, for the users themselves and for the developers.
- Flexibility. The platform used by developers will be a flexible one. Aside the the original economy model offered by Sleekplay, usage of traditional models such as the good-old advertisements is also possible.
How does Sleekplay works, exactly?
Sleekplay utilizes a system called the goal system. In this system, the duration of a certain service or application usage will be used to power up the Sleekplay technology. Every user will be given certain rules that, when fulfilled, users will be given premium content and direct reward from Sleekplay. Said rules are the usage of computational process of user’s devices that is utilized to run blockchain from Sleekplay. The average time that must be spent by users in order to receive premium content and reward is around 2 hours. This 2-hours usage milestone rule is applied in accordance to the result of a research by the Sleekplay team regarding the average application usage duration per day – 60 minutes for music streaming, 140 minutes for video streaming, and 180 minutes for playing video games.

Conclusion
To conclude , the usage of entertainment services such as music and video streaming as well as video games is met on daily basis nowadays. While the enjoyment of those services might be interfered with the presence of advertisement, a solution by Sleekplay offers an alternate revenue gaining method instead of relying on said advertisement that will result not only revenue for developers but also giving ads-free service usage for users. Said revenue is not meant for content creators and developers only –users may receive rewards as well for all the time they logged in and use the services. With Sleekplay, entertainment services can be profitable for both sides while also being ads-free.
