Web3 Experiment

Binance Pay, a cryptocurrency payment feature by Binance, is partnering with Bolt Global to build out a new Web3 live entertainment and social experience. 

Announced via the Binance Blog, Binance Pay, a contactless, borderless crypto payment feature will support Bolt Global, a technology company that focuses on building out services for Web3. The partnership will allow Binance users globally to gain access to Bolt+, the official name of this new Web3 social experience.

“We are thrilled to partner with Binance Pay to bring Web3 adoption to more industries across entertainment, retail, and gaming globally,” said Christel Quek, Co-Founder and CTO of Bolt Global.  

What’s interesting is its resemblance to streaming platforms like Twitch where content creators can be “gifted” dollars by their fans except in this case it will be crypto-based. Bolt+ will allow creators to keep up to 95% of their earnings, whereas Web2 platforms take a significant amount from creators. There will be tipping, advertising, sponsorship and utility-based NFT channels. 

“Binance Pay is proud to be partnering with Bolt Global … Streamers and creators can now earn easily in crypto with the benefits of the ease of use and security of the Binance ecosystem,” said Jonathan Lim, Global Head of Binance Pay.

Bolt+ is available on iOS, Android and web browsers. The platform has already onboarded music labels, sports media broadcasters and several news networks. The success of this platform could drastically change the streaming space especially for creators on the revenue generation side but also for fans through new experience options.
