Important Update to VIMM's DHF Proposal
Following our recent announcement about VIMM's future direction and collaboration with Dagamers, we've made significant revisions to our DHF proposal. These changes reflect a deeper understanding of what the Hive ecosystem needs and how we can provide the most value to the community.
A New Direction
After careful consideration and valuable community feedback, we're pivoting our proposal from rebuilding VIMM as a single platform to creating an open-source streaming framework. This framework will enable developers throughout the Hive ecosystem to build their own streaming solutions.
Key Changes to the Proposal
- Focused Scope: Development of a comprehensive streaming framework
- Reduced Budget: Funding requirement lowered from 325 HBD/day to 113 HBD/day
- Clear Deliverables:
- Core streaming server implementation
- Reference frontend application
- Complete technical documentation
- Development and testing tools
- Open Source Commitment: All code will be publicly available on GitHub
- 6-Month Development Timeline: Clear milestones and deliverables
Why This Makes Sense
This new approach offers several significant advantages:
- Ecosystem Growth: Enables multiple teams to innovate and create diverse streaming solutions
- Sustainability: Lower ongoing costs with higher potential impact
- Risk Reduction: No single point of failure for streaming on Hive
- Developer Empowerment: Lowers the technical barrier for new streaming projects
- Long-term Value: Creates lasting infrastructure for the Hive blockchain
Complementing Existing Solutions
This framework will support and complement existing platforms like Dagamers while enabling new innovations in the streaming space. By providing robust, well-documented tools, we can help accelerate the development of streaming applications on Hive.

This is in tha 3rd month of development. Right?
Actually, what you've seen at https://vimm.tv is a prototype we developed to demonstrate our initial vision. While VIMM users will be transitioning to https://dagamers.xyz for a more gamified streaming experience, we've realized we could create additional value for Hive with a different approach.
This updated proposal represents a new direction: instead of building another platform, we're proposing to create an open-source framework that will enable anyone to build streaming platforms on Hive. The requested funding would support this new open-source development effort.
