About
Livepeer (LPT)

Livepeer (LPT) is a decentralized video streaming network built on the Ethereum blockchain, designed to provide a scalable, cost-effective, and censorship-resistant infrastructure for video transcoding and distribution. It aims to revolutionize how video content is processed and delivered by offering an open alternative to traditional, centralized video processing services. The core of Livepeer's technology relies on a distributed network of node operators, known as Orchestrators, who contribute their computing resources to perform video transcoding tasks. This peer-to-peer system leverages blockchain technology to coordinate and incentivize participants, ensuring reliable and efficient video processing for developers and broadcasters building media dApps.

The LPT token is the native digital asset of the Livepeer network, functioning as a crucial utility token and work token. Token holders can stake LPT to become Orchestrators or delegate their LPT to existing Orchestrators, thereby participating in network security and earning a share of the fees and inflationary rewards. This staking mechanism ensures that Orchestrators perform their transcoding duties honestly and efficiently. Broadcasters utilize the network for video encoding and streaming, paying fees that contribute to the ecosystem's economy. As a foundational element of Web3 video infrastructure, Livepeer enhances the capabilities of decentralized applications requiring robust video functionalities, positioning itself as a key player in the future of on-chain media delivery and content streaming with strong cryptographic security.

Frequently asked questions

  • What exactly does the AUD/LPT trading pair represent for investors in Australia?

    The AUD/LPT pair is a direct fiat on-ramp allowing you to purchase Livepeer (LPT) tokens using Australian Dollars (AUD). It represents an entry point into Livepeer's decentralized video streaming network, a Web3 media layer designed to provide cost-effective video transcoding. By trading this pair, you are essentially exchanging fiat currency for a utility token that powers a specific blockchain-based infrastructure.
  • What are the common methods to buy Livepeer (LPT) with AUD in Australia?

    To buy LPT with AUD, you typically use an Australian cryptocurrency exchange that lists the token. The process involves creating an account, completing AUSTRAC-mandated KYC/AML verification, and then funding your account using common Australian payment methods like PayID, BPAY, or a direct bank transfer. Once funded, you can place an order on the AUD/LPT order book to purchase the digital asset.
  • What is the core function of LPT tokens within the Livepeer protocol?

    LPT is an ERC-20 utility token that secures the Livepeer network and coordinates work. Token holders can participate by staking their LPT to run a Broadcaster or Orchestrator node, or by delegating their LPT to an Orchestrator. This staking mechanism helps ensure reliable and cost-effective video transcoding on the decentralized network, with participants earning staking rewards for their contribution.
  • What type of digital wallet is needed to securely store LPT tokens after purchase?

    Since Livepeer's LPT is an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, you need a wallet that supports this standard. For secure, long-term storage, a hardware wallet is highly recommended. For more frequent interactions, such as delegating LPT, a non-custodial software wallet like MetaMask is a popular choice. Always ensure you have sole control over your private keys for maximum security of your digital assets.
  • What fees are involved in a typical AUD to LPT blockchain transaction?

    Trading AUD for LPT involves several potential fees. First, your chosen cryptocurrency exchange will have a trading fee, often a percentage of the transaction value. Second, there might be deposit fees for adding AUD via methods like BPAY. Finally, when you withdraw your LPT to an external digital wallet, you must pay a network fee, also known as a 'gas fee,' to the Ethereum network miners or validators for processing the blockchain transaction. This gas fee varies based on network congestion.
