Peter “Furious Pete” Czerwinski has nearly 5 million YouTube followers, but they cannot see most of his new videos. To get access to 46 of the 71 competitive-eating and weightlifting videos he posted in the last few months, fans are using DTube.
Two-year-old Steemit has approximately 1 million accounts with 120,000 being added last month, according to Scott. Rival LBRY has about 600,000 registered users. That is far from Facebook’s 2 billion monthly users or 87 million whose data was offered to Cambridge Analytica. But Naomi Brockwell, a video creator in New York who focuses in crypto material, says she’s already generating an average of $40 a video in Steem tokens, which in You Tube could take several months. Brockwell says she needs to get options to the name-brand social networks because they get out ads on her videos.
