The livestream ecosystem is getting a makeover. Smart Pocket is building something different — an on-chain IP platform that turns viewer engagement into real, ownable assets. Here's the pitch: fans participate in livestreams, their contributions get tracked on-chain, they earn tokens for it, and they actually own a piece of the action.

It's not just streaming with a crypto wrapper. The mechanics here matter — audience interaction becomes verifiable, monetizable, and portable. Think of it as flipping the traditional creator economy: instead of platforms gatekeeping the relationship between streamers and their audience, on-chain recording means fans have proof of their engagement and a stake in the creator's ecosystem.

Launch incoming. Whether this reshapes how IP creators monetize their audiences or remains a niche experiment in Web3 will depend on adoption and actual use-case utility.

Ah, it's that on-chain setup again... sounds great, but how many people are actually using it? --- The fan-owned assets approach has been tried before, and the key still depends on whether there is a real monetization path. --- Isn't this just replacing middlemen with smart contracts? Essentially, nothing has changed. --- It seems the tokenomics design is flawed; early entrants end up cutting into those who come later. --- But if it can truly be portable, then it's definitely much better than platform lock-in. --- Niche experiment is right; it still depends on whether creators are willing to cooperate. --- Web3 live streaming hasn't made a big splash yet, and now there's a new idea. --- Earning tokens sounds good, but I'm just worried it might end up in the hands of a few.

Fan assetization sounds good, but I'm worried it's just another air project.

Fan assetization sounds good in theory, but whether it can truly help users escape platform exploitation remains to be seen. It sounds nice, but in the end, isn't it just another group of people harvesting retail investors? If it could genuinely give the audience a voice, I might believe it. Right now, it's all just slogans.
