Charity Base is a BASEd decentralized streaming platform where creators can create charity-based streams for social, environmental and economic causes.
Charity streaming through Tiltify, streamlabs or other crowdfunding platforms designed for gamers to raise money through their streams, has become a huge deal.
For example, From February 24th through March 13th, there were almost 700 separate live streams from 212 unique channels dedicated to donating to Ukraine charities. Over 1,500 hours of charity streams were broadcast, and garnered over 2.6 million hours watched.
One of these streamers, Asmongold raised $400,000 USD in a day.
But there’s a huge problem with these centralized platforms. It is that even if you are raising money the fee they receive is sometimes unfair, sometimes reaching 35% and in addition to that We have the issue of payment transfer and that it sometimes does not reach its final destination. And on the other hand there are others that do not charge a fee, but are probably using the numbers raised as a way to avoid taxation.
We can solve these two issues through Web3.
Enter Charity Base, it is a BASEd decentralized streaming platform where creators can create charity-based streams for social, environmental and economic causes.
We use ETH for management and ERC20 Tokens (USDC). This in order to be able to receive and send tokens in the Base ecosystem and through that L2. Though the Livepeer APIs it was possible for us to obtain if the Streamers were doing a Live, thanks to this the viewers could always be aware when a live stream is made.
