Abstract

In the digital era, the demand for real-time streaming services highlights the scalability, data sovereignty, and privacy limitations of traditional centralized systems. VidBlock introduces a novel decentralized blockchain architecture that leverages the blockchain’s immutable and transparent characteristics along with direct communication capabilities. This ecosystem revolutionizes content delivery and storage, ensuring high data integrity and user trust. VidBlock’s architecture emphasizes serverless operation, aligning with the principles of decentralization to enhance efficiency and reduce costs. Our contributions include decentralized data management, user-controlled privacy, cost reduction through a serverless architecture, and improved global accessibility. Experiments show that VidBlock is superior in reducing latency and utilizing bandwidth, demonstrating its potential to redefine live video streaming in the Web3.0 era.
