Next-generation blockchain-based gamified video entertainment platform provider BitMovio has announced the launch of an open beta for its next-generation gamified video entertainment marketplace.

The marketplace is designed to offers consumers and content creators a variety of ways to interact and engage with crypto and virtual goods across featured genres, including gaming, science fiction, fantasy, horror and paranormal. It is also designed to deliver an update on content creator and consumer interactivity as well as access to a growing array of gamified monetisation and reward models.

During the open beta, BitMovio says that it will feature over 800 hours of on-demand video content licensed from content providers ranging from individual gamers, streamers and independent film producers to global studios and production companies, across multiple genres and territories, along with new content added every day from its network of creators and content owners.

With the release of the open beta, content creators can create personalised channels with pre-recorded content, programmed content and livestreams via mobile or desktop, and set pricing and business rules to engage with their global audience. BitMovio also offers reporting and analytics to enable trust and transparency in the platform. Viewers can access both free and paid content, interact directly with content creators and other BitMovio members through interactive and social features, and support content creators by tipping and gifting.

“We’ve incorporated the best elements of consuming and engaging content all into one video entertainment marketplace,” explained BitMovio co-founder and CEO Simon Zhu. “We also support a variety of monetisation models and offer viewers a gamified experience, including real-time chat, on-screen bullet chat, tipping, gifting, micro-transactions, per-channel subscriptions and reward-based advertising that create an engaging and connected global community. We're looking forward to seeing how both content creators and viewers enjoy these elements during the open beta.”

The open beta is available via web browsers and in the Google Play Store for Android-based devices. An iOS version will be available soon in the Apple iTunes App Store.
