In an era where streaming has become an integral part of our daily routines, Playbux has partnered with iQIYI, a global streaming giant, to transform how viewers interact with content consumption through the “Watch to Earn” feature. This feature lets users earn rewards simply by watching their favorite content on the Playbux platform.
“Watch to Earn” is proving to be a massive success, with over 100 million minutes of watch time already logged monthly. With daily rewards, VIP membership perks, and an upcoming leaderboard competition, this collaboration promises to make screen time much more valuable.
Turning Screen Time Into Rewards
Playbux has set itself apart from traditional platforms by using blockchain technology to blend entertainment with financial incentives. Traditionally, streaming platforms have profited from user engagement. However, Playbux’s “Watch to Earn” feature offers a shift in that model by directly tying time spent watching to earning. This creates a win-win scenario where viewers also gain financially from the time they invest in watching their favorite content.
Getting started with the “Watch to Earn” feature is fairly easy. Users first need to create an account on the Playbux website, navigate to the iQIYI section through the pre-alpha banner, and start streaming content. For every 30 minutes of watch time (just 15 minutes for VIP members), users can unlock rewards like Lotto Tickets worth 39,000 $PBUX, 8,500 USDT, BRK tokens for exclusive NFTs, and more.
The “Watch to Earn” feature makes sure that there is something for everybody. Casual viewers get a chance to effortlessly earn something back for their time spent watching. Meanwhile, more dedicated streamers get an opportunity to transform their hobby into a revenue stream. So whether users log in for the entertainment or the rewards, “Watch to Earn” lets them monetize their passion by eliminating the tradeoff between entertainment and productivity, offering both at the same time.
Gamified Streaming Experience and Immersive Rewards System
The rewards system is designed to keep participants immersed. Once users hit 30 minutes of watch time, they become eligible to claim daily rewards. However, if they don’t make it to 30 minutes in one session, they can pick up where they left off the next day and still earn their rewards. Rewards include Lotto tickets, BRK tokens, exclusive box pieces, and limited edition Watch to Earn-only NFTs. Moreover, VIP members have even more to gain in half the time as they need to only watch for 15 minutes daily to unlock these rewards. They also enjoy extra perks like additional Lotto tickets, BRK bonuses, and an iQIYI subscription, making the whole experience even more rewarding for Playbux’s loyal subscribers.
The BRK tokens, Playbux’s off-chain currency, can be used to unlock exclusive NFTs in the Playbux Game Center. These NFTs aren’t just digital collectibles but have tangible value. They unlock new features, lead to personalized gameplay experiences, and are tradeable.
An upcoming contest set to add a competitive twist to the “Watch to Earn” feature is the Leaderboard Watch Competition. The more you watch, the higher you will rank on the leaderboard, turning a passive streaming experience into an interactive challenge instead. The top users with the most watch times will be rewarded with Lucky Points through a special airdrop, where these points can be redeemed for exclusive rewards. This competition will add a new layer of thrill, making every minute spent watching even more rewarding. The introduction of this gamified element will incentivize consistent participation in the Playbux platform through a fun and challenging environment within the Playbux community.
Playbux uses the Real Intelligence Engine to ensure that each viewer’s experience is highly personalized by curating content based on individual preferences. IQIYI’s vast selection of over 100 films, complemented by Playbux’s Real Intelligence Engine, takes the viewing experience to a whole new level.
More to Come in the World of Web3 Entertainment
Playbux has positioned itself as the number one platform in the X-to-Earn space, offering users nine unique earning features including “Play to Earn,” “Shop to Earn,” and more. The “Watch to Earn” feature specifically highlights the potential of blending blockchain technology with entertainment. With millions of iQIYI users worldwide, Playbux has attracted even more users to its already impressive user base through this partnership, bringing the benefits of blockchain technology to a wider audience. This increased demand creates ripple effects across the Playbux ecosystem, driving growth and benefiting $PBUX token holders significantly.
As Playbux continues to explore the possibilities offered by the application of Web3 technology to the entertainment industry, it plans to introduce more features that will make entertainment even more engaging and rewarding in the ever-evolving world of Web3.
