COS.TV is a video exhibition platform created by Contentos that monetizes content for those who produce and for those who watch it.
The vision of Contentos is to build a "decentralized digital content community that allows content to be freely produced, distributed, rewarded, and traded, while protecting author rights". Contentos strives to incentivize content creation and global diversity and return the rights and value of content to users.
The platform can be accessed through the website https://cos.tv/ or the application for smartphones and tablets which is still in beta version.
It's a decentralized and gamefied platform that uses game mechanics and dynamics to engage people.
You earn for commenting, liking, watching, playing...
Virtually everything we do in our lives is tied to gamification. “Gamification is the use of game mechanics and dynamics to engage people, solve problems and improve learning, motivating actions and behaviors in environments outside the context of games”. The objective is to sharpen the user's curiosity and, as in games, giving out rewards is mandatory.
Cos TV has this purpose and everything that is done on the platform is rewarded with a currency called VEST which has a specific function of increasing your monetization on the platform according to likes, comments, etc. and can be converted to cryptocurrency COS or vice versa.
The value of the likes you earn on your video, in the comments and on the videos, depends on the energy you have on cos.tv. You need the energy to post videos, like and comment. In addition, you also get POP which is an internal currency and cannot be withdrawn, but serves to be used in internal games such as: open the chest, spin the roulette, etc.
