Idea: Mobile App Records Live Video Streams Directly To Blockchain

The app could even work in offline mode as long as its available wallet satoshi outputs were synced before going into airplane mode.

https://github.com/arthenica/ffmpeg-kit can be used to encode your camera's video as 5-10 second live stream segments and generate a chain of HLSVideo smart contract transactions containing each segment.

Onchain Video On Demand

https://pow.co/{outpoint}.m3u8

That URL shall find and return manifest files in a given transaction outpoint in valid HLS manifest format. Then you can give a powco video URL to your video player such as:

<HLSVideoPlayer src={`https:/pow.co/${txid_vout}.m3u8`} />

Powco parses the HLS manifest file out of its output script and returns a valid m3u8 file containing references to the various video segments, which are all in their own outpoints.

https://pow.co/{txid_vout}.ts

Each video segment file is uploaded in a separate bitcoin transaction output script and reference by its outpoint.

/{txid_vout}.ts URLs will parse and stream the content of each video segment requested, making Powco Video on Demand work out of the box with all HLS streaming players.

The back end implementations can be changed and improved over time to increase performance while reducing cost, leaving the web interface continually conformant to the HLS HTTP API standards.

Looks like only Handcash works today. I recommend we merge even if everything is not perfect yet.

By creating a hedge fund there becomes a vehicle for people to invest in the destruction of Teamsters Union companies. The accumulation of negative market positions could become so large that it cripples unionized companies' ability to finance their parasites any longer.

When the unionized companies continue to collapse you as investor in the put options will profit spectacularly.
