VTOS utilizes the Ethereum ecosystem as its primary platform for transaction processing. By encrypting communications on the blockchain platform, and allowing nodes to communicate directly, VTOS will function as a decentralized platform for exchange of videos, and content. Other contributors in terms of comments, likes and shares also earn rewards. Through decentralization, content creators will have power and control over how their content is used by others within the network. We have introduced VCT as a currency to power the VTOS platform. Users progress to different levels thus gaining more rewards over time. Additionally, the VTOS platform will have masternodes thus enabling users to rent out their nodes and earn a yearly percentage of rewards. The VTOS platform will provide technology which will offer a hybrid P2P and the traditional HTTP CDN video streaming solution. VTOS platform will harness the power of the widely distributed networks so as to overcome the challenge of delivering high quality Videos at scale. Through intelligently multi sourcing con- tent delivery, VTOS will offer the most widely available and resilient Content delivery solutions. This paper seeks to provide an overview of the VTOS platform and explain in detail the underlying technology and functionality in detail. We explain in depth the application’s key components, compare it with existing non blockchain file sharing platforms and thus show VTOS unique approach to decentralized, contract driven incentivization and how it will transform the blockchain content and video sharing space.
OVERVIEW It is estimated that about 2.5 billion people around the world participate in some form of social networking. The internet came with the promise of ensuring people seamlessly connected through sharing of information, knowledge, and/or interests. The major social media companies such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Reddit, and Quora have dominated the social media landscape for the last decade; they have billions of users generating high volumes of content and connecting people globally. As a result, of this explosive growth, market valuations of major social media corporations have soared; mostly due to the ability to tap into and commercialize user-generated content.

Google’s annual revenue generated from YouTube is about $4,000,000,000 with an annual cost of running and maintaining YouTube close to $6,350,000,000. YouTube uses a computational architecture called content distribution network (CDN). To provide high availability of services, this system partitions network resources geographically with respect to end-users. This network system functions as a direct connection between servers and users of the network. P2P 5 5 Decentralized cdn & social network
WebTorrent is an innovative technology that uses the P2P architecture to facilitate browser-to-browser data transfer. A key aspect of this technology is that as more users are actively using a WebTorrent-powered website, the faster and more resilient it becomes. WebTorrent provides connections between different website users forming a distributed, decentralized browser-to-browser network, for efficient file transfer. Blockchain technology provides a new and more BLOCK CHAIN efficient way of ensuring user-generated content is valued correctly and rewards are distributed appropriately. Blockchain will revolutionize the content creation space in several ways: The figure below shows how its plataform works. CDN/P2P MASTERNODES 6 Decentralized cdn & social network
Public content database: blockchain works in such a manner that information stored through a publicly distributed ledger is accessible by anyone within the network. Until recently, the major usage of blockchain public ledger has been crypto currencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin among others. The same attributes that make cryptocurrencies attractive work for content, any shared content, and it automatically ranks higher. Through a blockchain ledger, content creators are therefore getting rewarded promptly and unequivocally. This serves as a motivation for people to share more high-quality content catapulting a virtuous circle for content development. Monetization: Since the user community controls the platform, information and content are not manipulated by a third party. Through blockchain technology, users are able to monetize content through digital tokens and drive their own experience. Generally, the decentralized and the open source core features of the blockchain combined with the high levels of encryption have excited businesses in many areas and in doing so they have captivated many supporters. In the process, many innovators have been seeking to implement blockchain technology into their products and processes. One of the benefits of using blockchain The major objective of this scenario is to innovations has been in the case of digital create an user-friendly content sharing content distribution. As in the case of this network that enables an effective, as well as VTOS major aims, blockchain can be a hustle free method to upload, purchase effectively used for wresting control of digital and share content. In the past, the digital content and data distribution over the inter- content distribution has been a sector that net back to the masses from the large corpo- has highly been favored by the large rations even though it is yet to be fully seen if corporations who control large finances.

This has distribution platforms to revolutionize data all technology which is set to once again distribution on the internet. wrest control of content creation to all other people who can create content from the large corporations. 7 Decentralized cdn & social network
PROBLEM OVERVIEW Centralized video platform management: platform curators have sole discretion on selecting the content shown to users; therefore "feeding" them what they believe is appropriate or, in most cases, what drives higher profit. User experience is dictated by revenue maximizing algorithms rather than user's interests, preferences and current mood. Saturation: traditional video sharing websites frequently concentrate their bandwidth capacity on centralized locations limiting their latency and efficiency. An ever expanding buffer for data transfer is becoming crucial for the scalability of these platforms, and yet there currently exists no readily available solution. Storage cost: video and data content providers currently face increasingly growing storage costs due to the exponential growth in users on social network platforms. Both on-site and cloud solutions have not been able to keep up in cost effective manner to the growth of these platforms. Demonetization: Despite the content generated, users do not benefit or get rewarded; instead, the data generated is monetized by corporations. Recently, a big controversy shook the social network community which causes demonetization of content on YouTube. For this reason, some content creators have started to use other ways of revenue such as patreon which allows them to offer a subscription service for supporters. 8 Decentralized cdn & social network
MISION STATEMENT VTOS aims to be the leading video and data sharing website. We want to decentralize video and blog content to give value to creators and contributors in a way that have not been done before. Furthermore, we will use VTOS technology that is self-engineered and powered by WebTorrent so others can use it to store data, video, and stream content. Using the underlying blockchain technology we want to be the first social content aggregator to unify these advanced technologies. The underlying VTOS technology is top-notch allowing almost free hosting of videos. We believe that we have the opportunity to connect people from all races, creeds, and backgrounds around the world, and improve their experiences, either as content creators or as users and reward them for it. 9 Decentralized cdn & social network
CORE OBJECTIVES 1.) Become the first user driven video sharing platform Democratize the way users and content creators interact by eliminating central curation and allowing users to drive their own customized experience. Consequently, by delayering algorithms to final users we will provide a market place where viewers, content creators and advertising purchasers will trade for adspace. 2.) Improve the standard efficiency of data sharing Utilize P2P technology to provide a low latency expandable buffer solution to the ever-increasing social network content sharing needs. VTOS naturally scalable architecture assures that through consistent peer relying users experience is never compromised. VTOS platform will implement and work as a peer to peer content delivery network. the content delivery (CDN) will make use of a high value, high bandwidth webcontent to any browser in the world. The content delivery network will be able to deliver content from browser to browser. 3.) Drive storage cost significantly lower Deliver low cost storage through users master node hosting in exchange for rewards creating a virtuous circle with user community. 4.) Actively reward content creation We plan to drive content generation and incremental traffic to our platform by immediately distributing value creation along the user community. We plan to implement a patreon like system for users to support their favorite content creators through subscriptions and donations. 10 Decentralized cdn & social network
VTOS TECHNOLOGY VTOS is a decentralized social network built in an infrastructure which embraces the full application of blockchain technology. Other closely related technologies do not use blockchain. VTOS is low cost, decentralized, has native browser support, ANTI ISP, encryption, mobile support, SMART P2P upload control and CROSS platform P2P. The following aspects are under development: Client-side encryption, live streaming, IOS and Android SDK. We will give users a new significantly improved experience compared to those from Skype, Telegram, WhatsApp and other video messaging services. By enhancing live streaming video calls with our WebTorrent platform, VTOS will revolutionize the way users consume video content. 11 Decentralized cdn & social network
CONTENT DELIVERY NETWORK(CDN) AND WEBTORRENT(P2P) Our VTOS network will be the most elastic, distributed and resilient CDN/WebTorrent hybrid in the world. A CDN consists of a group of servers or data centers, located in several geographical areas to serve end users. Simply speaking, CDs helps deliver contents like web, video or application to end users faster. For instance, end users are able to send their request to the webserver and the webserver redirects this request to the CDNs. Then the CDNs makes a decision to choose which server to use to serve this user. In a CDN, the traffic comes from a CDN WebTorrent is written in the JavaScript servers to users (usually user's request goes and internally uses the WebRTC for their true to web server instead of CDN), while in a P2P peer to peer communication. The flexibility network, every peer is both server and client. of the webtorrent client avoids the Also, P2P network can be completely ad hoc, requirements of the extensions or plugins in in the sense there's no central server to help your browser to be able to use it. The find where the desired content is. browser to browser communication Furthermore, we are also using WebTorrent, provided by Webtorrent cuts out the a P2P network which provides browsers and middle-man and allows people to mobile applications with Real-Time communicate on their own terms. Communications capabilities through simple APIs. Our platform will connect website users through a decentralized network of browsers for transferring of files efficiently. We have been working on this project since 2015 in order to ensure our platform is optimal to best serve the desired functionality. We have developed and tested our own technology based on WebTorrent with private users for video conference but it is now time to release it to the market. Our team has vast experience in WebTorrent and other programming languages. We will continuously improve our platform to provide a cutting-edge video conference experience unique to VTOS. By unlocking the distributed computing power through viewers support, the VTOS platform will solve some of the two biggest problems in streaming which are scalability and geographical coverage. 12 Decentralized cdn & social network

TOKEN DESCRIPTION VTOS (TOKEN) This token will govern the masternode ecosystem. It is an Ethereum ERC20 token based on a decentralized social network built on the blockchain platform. VTOS is the currency of the platform and the fundamental unit of account on the VTOS system. This is the currency that will be sold on the Initial Coin Offering as well as in exchanges and it will serve as a fundamental unit to run the VTOS decentralized cdn & social network master node which is the main power of the VTOS ecosystem. The smart contract will regulate all the transactions by overseeing that content and shared files are fully encrypted, verify proof of ownership of that content, thus guaranteeing a seamless transfer of value for the users. VCT (VTOS COMMUNITY TOKEN) Is an Ethereum ERC20 token which will serve as the community token and will be used exclusively on the content platform as a reward system. Once users join the platform they will be able to win VCT every time they post, like or share content on the platform. The amount of rewards will depend on the level of the user as well as the weekly generated bounty. This token will help maintain a subsystem of nodes that will further support our platform. Furt hermore this token will be used to acquire certain features and services in the platform. The dependent in the webminer system (see page 16). 14 Decentralized cdn & social network
THE MASTERNODE SYSTEM The MasterNode system is the heart of the social network and the storage service that VTOS will offer to the community. It is powered by to elements, the VTOS token and the CDN/P2P network DApp which efficiently fulfils an increasingly demand of download and upload requests. The VTOS Masternode ecosystem will offer users the ability to own a Mastenode or to rent one. Furthermore, Masternodes will help support the VTOS social network making the plat- form more efficient as well as sustainable through an efficient management of unused Masternodes. Users will be able to run their own master node and get rewards for it. This is a great incentive tool that will improve the functionality of the system. The user enjoys peace of mind by knowing that the VTOS tokens are secured in their personal account. If a user wants to run the VTOS Master node he will need 1000 VTOS. Users with Master nodes have more benefits. They get a monthly percentage of VTOS. Master nodes are a complete game changer in the social networking space. We have develo- ped our own master nodes with no setup needed, while other projects in the same space use weaker technology and therefore they need to charge for people to upload content in the social network, but for us, it will be free. Master nodes encourage ‘locking up’ so that users possess them for a longer period. The more users join the network, the more master nodes are locked up. There are strong incentives to have master nodes, so we believe that cryptos with master nodes will see more appreciation in value in the next few years than others without them. 15 Decentralized cdn & social network
VTOS SOCIAL NETWORK ECOSYSTEM Having a working product is important for the value of the token from both the content creators’ perspective and the viewer’s perspective. We will not give away VCT for free. Instead, both content creators and contributors will have to earn by engaging on the platform. We will encourage people to produce highquality content and through that, they will rank highly. This will further encourage holding the coin for longer periods of time. These actions will eventually lead to the improved value of VTOS and avoid dilution. Channel Subscriptions Leveling System We’re introducing a subscription and Different from other typical social network sites, donating system for users to support their our platform will rank users based on levels.

Some notable examples of to subscribe to their favorite content social networks that contain certain elements creators. Subscriptions will also provide a which we plan to implement in our leveling system regular monthly income to those who receive model are StackOverflow and Bitcointalk. them. The level system will be based on actions made on the platform. To be able to acquire VCT and level up (LV), users will need to earn experience points (EXP). For example, if Peter joins VTOS platform he will need to refer two friends to gain the first level and start earning experience points (EXP) and VCT. Each time that users level up, the amount of required experience points will increase. The value given by a certain user level will be linked directly to his earnings. This ad space will cost more in higher level user pages, this will benefit those high-level users, giving them the incentive to earn even more. Our algorithm will reflect an appropriate way of ensuring ranking is based purely on individual efforts and contribution to the platform. We will limit coin issuance to avoid dilution. Reward System For each action made on the platform, users will earn a determinate amount of experience points(EXP) and VCT(VTOS COMMUNITY TOKEN). This amount will be directly proportional to the quality of the action made and will motivate the content creator to produce more high-quality videos and blogs; the more people react to it either through commenting, liking or sharing, the more the creator earns. One way for users to win VCT will be through the actions made by them every week, this will depend on the weekly Bounty box and experiences points users earn that week. Therefore if users want to continuously earn VCT and EXP usage activity will be the main factor. Furthermore, just being on the platform watching videos and viewing blog content will make you earn money through actions of likes, shares, and comments. This means that the content creator will win for all actions received from the viewer. The viewer, on the other hand, will win for actions made on the platform subscribing, comment,shares, and likes. 16 Decentralized cdn & social network
Ad Marketplace Within the VTOS system we plan to introduce a decentralized ad system, this will empower users and companies to buy and sell ads as well as other services by using cryptocurrencies that will be available in our exchange system. Through this mechanism, VTOS platform users and content creators will be able to sell their available ad space in their individual video pages as well as their subscription homepage. VTOS COMMUNITY TOKEN - VCT Host Support (Webminer) This system will help the platform through the sharing of network upload bandwidth and hard drive space from the user, therefore users will have the ability to give support to the Webtorrent network and in return, they will win VCT. This process will ensure that VCT is minted through a mining process, therefore, controlling the remittance of the coin. A small amount of the VCT generates will through this process go to the Bounty Box which will provide the base for the rewards of the social network. The webminer is independent of the masternode system, in other words it performs a similar func- tion as the masternodes which supports the social network sustenance. Furthermore to assure that the demand of the token always exceeds the supply, a algorithm will be implemented which increases the difficulty in the production of the token. Users will be able to open a web page to help the VCT Network using a Webtorrent web client to automatically add videos and start seeding. We will measure the upload speed and the hard drive space of the user to give them VCT in exchange for their resources which will incentivize users to exchange their hard currencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin for VCT and VTOS as well as other currencies. 17 Decentralized cdn & social network
Exchange Within the VTOS system we plan to offer users the ability to purchase Exchange services and ads at the platform. We will create an exchange system between parties, which will incentivi- ze users to exchange hard currencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin and VTOS as well as other currencies. Unique User Channel Users will have the ability to customize their experience by designing their home page, and purchase channel features through the VTOS blockchain. Creating unique experiences for our users will exponentiate the VTOS platform appeal vs. status quo. Through this same mechanism, users will be able to design their own avatar or use their photo as a way to add value to the way they present themselves in the social network community. 18 Decentralized cdn & social network
