PlebLab Launches PlebTV: A Dedicated Platform for a New Era of TV
Austin, Texas—[August 6th, 2024]—PlebLab, the leading Bitcoin-focused hackerspace and community accelerator, proudly announces the launch of PlebTV, a platform dedicated to showcasing and preserving the rich video content accumulated by PlebLab since 2021. In an era where digital content faces increasing centralization and potential censorship, PlebTV is our way of becoming more self-sovereign, ensuring that Bitcoin-only content thrives independently.
The Vision Behind PlebTV.
With PlebTV, we are taking a significant step toward safeguarding our content from the potential threats posed by AI and tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Apple. PlebTV offers a flat-free, unlimited watching experience without ads, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in our extensive library of Bitcoin-focused content. Currently, we have over 258 titles available, with plans to import even more. We are still leveraging YouTube to host content, but we will soon™ begin moving to our own servers and offering alternative sign-in methods.
Our TV platform also includes premium content leveraging the new Zaprite API, providing an enhanced experience for our audience who would rather pay in Bitcoin. We will begin adding more course content in the coming weeks and are striking deals with more individual content creators. We encourage you to reach out if you want to be featured on PlebTV. As we continue to iterate on the TV platform, we are also beginning our efforts in original content development, further rounding out our offerings. By launching PlebTV, we aim to build a robust platform where our branded content can live unimpeded by external influences.
A New Era of TV.
This is an early release of PlebTV, but it marks a pivotal moment for PlebLab as we venture into the entertainment space. Envisioned over a year ago, we believe now is the right time to expand our reach and impact to a wider global audience. We have further plans to introduce something magical by early 2025. We are working hard everyday to get there sooner rather than later. Our vision for PlebTV is not just about preserving content but about rethinking the way media is delivered.
This one is for the Plebs.
At PlebLab, we aim to empower the next generation of Bitcoin builders, hackers, and startups. As a vibrant hackerspace and community accelerator in Austin, Texas, we are committed to fostering a community of developers, hackers, creatives, and open-source software and hardware builders. PlebLab provides a space where individuals can collaborate, elevate their skills, and transform seemingly impossible ideas into reality. We encourage all Bitcoin enthusiasts, developers, and content creators to join us on this exciting journey. Together, we can ensure that the voices and innovations within the Bitcoin community continue to flourish and inspire.
