  Mascot

We aim to build the first decentralized pan-entertainment platform in the blockchain world at icp, which we call “Makabaka”.

Inspiration

1. Common live-streaming platforms will charge very high commissions, which leaves live streamers with a low share of incomes.
2. The platforms, instead of their users, have the ownership of the created contents. Therefore, platforms can earn most of the revenues by trading the contents created by their users.
   
3. Assets on these platforms are not transferable. Users can only trade within certain platforms.
4. The autarchy of platforms mean they have absolute control over the users, and can make exclusive decision to close or ban the user accounts. Once the users are banned/blocked, they will lose all their properties. Now, we utilize the blockchain technology to perfectly address this inequality issue.
   

What it does

In order to improve the user experience and add some interest, we will initially provide live-streaming function for the users, and will add games, NFT gifts and other elements later on.

How we built it

Users can quickly and safely join live streams, meetings and online conversations through icp Internet Identity with very low costs, but to gain more profits. Users’ assets will be recorded on the blockchain and be owned truly by themselves, free to be transferred and given away. We will also establish a fairer and more just mechanism to manage and protect the benefits of our users, and will reward those who comply with the rules in the meanwhile.

Challenges we ran into

Despite our ambitious vision, we still need to integrate relevant resources and fundings. For now, we are determined to design and develop it first, and then to integrate a stronger team.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We aim to build a platform with users of a billion-level access, and our team is currently working hard to build the basic functions. we will surely succeed. Look forward to your attention and support.

What we learned

DFINITY open-source software development kit (SDK) builds apps based on Motoko's container smart contracts. DFINITY is more efficient and more open for both developers and users. It not only has the operating speed of the Internet, the decentralization of the blockchain, but also the unlimited capacity that beyonds the Internet or the blockchain, allowing its users to enter the encrypted world from the real one with nearly zero perception.

What's next for makabaka

In the next stage, we will optimize and improve the live-streaming function and add NFT-related contracts. Subsequently, we will tailor more fun ways to use our platform. Our product has many prospective benefits and will come through eventually.
