Status: Live — 555stream is operational at stream.rndrntwrk.com.
555stream
555stream is a browser-based live streaming studio that lets creators broadcast to 7 platforms simultaneously without downloading anything. Cloud encoding at the edge means your machine never touches the heavy lifting.Key Capabilities
7-Platform Simulcast
Broadcast to Twitch, YouTube, Kick, X, TikTok, Zora, and pump.fun simultaneously. One stream, seven audiences.
Cloud Encoding
Video encoding offloaded to edge network. No GPU load, consistent quality regardless of local hardware.
Crypto-Native Controls
Configure permissions and actions from your wallet; wire in gamification and on-chain triggers.
Always-On Programming
Keep your channel active when you’re offline with scheduled clips, mini-games, raids/quests, and the 555 Lottery.
Alice (AI Operator)
Alice (built on Milaidy/ElizaOS v2) operates your stream: triggers L-Bar ads at optimal engagement, controls scenes, invites guests via WebRTC SFU, and schedules Always-On programming. 12+ custom plugins, 16 MCP ad actions.
Resilient Uptime
Continuous, failover-ready ingest with auto-recovery and health checks.
Setup
Option A: Browser Studio (Recommended)
Use the browser-based studio at stream.rndrntwrk.com with wallet auth. No desktop encoder needed — cloud encoding handles everything server-side.Connect Wallet & Configure Access
Connect your Solana wallet to set stream ownership and define controller permissions (e.g., moderator wallets). If integrating pump.fun, ensure the project wallet has the required scopes.
Choose Scene Layout
Select a layout template: Solo, 2-grid, 4-grid, PIP (Picture-in-Picture). Configure overlays: lower thirds, tickers, alerts, branding, and sponsor assets.
Start Stream & Monitor Health
Start the session from the control surface. Monitor ingest health, bitrate, dropped frames, and auto-recovery status. We automatically route your stream to the best region based on audience distribution and live health metrics.
Option B: OBS Browser Source (Fallback)
If you are transitioning from OBS or need a hybrid setup, add the Render overlay as a browser source while you migrate scenes.Scene Control
Full scene composition in the browser:- Templates: Solo, 2-grid, 4-grid, PIP (Picture-in-Picture).
- Runtime controls: Lower thirds, tickers, alerts.
- Overlay management for branding and sponsor assets.
Guest Management
WebRTC-based guest system:- Invite guests to join your stream live.
- Control guest audio/video independently.
- Grid layouts adjust automatically.
L-Bar Ads
The L-Bar is a non-interruptive ad format inspired by broadcast TV (think ESPN during live sports). Instead of cutting to an ad break, the stream content squeezes into an L-shaped region (74% x 71% program area with audio continuing) while the ad occupies the remaining space.How It Works
- No Interruption: Content keeps playing. The viewer never loses the stream.
- AI-Triggered Placement: Alice polls engagement signals every 5 seconds across 4 metrics. When the composite score crosses the 0.70 threshold, she triggers an ad placement at the optimal moment.
- Two-Sided Marketplace: Advertisers create campaigns with budgets and targeting. Streamers browse and accept campaigns. The protocol handles matching and payment.
Ad Revenue Flow
Ad revenue follows the standard economic cascade:- 10% ARP to audience.
- Post-ARP: 50% creator, 50% platform.
- Platform share: 70% treasury, 20% burns, 5% $555 reserve, 5% SOL/USDC reserve.
Alice as Operator
Alice (the autonomous AI agent) can operate 555stream without human intervention:- Start/Stop Broadcasts: Alice can initiate and end streams on schedule.
- Trigger Ads: Monitors engagement and places L-Bar ads at optimal moments.
- Manage Guests: Invites and controls guest appearances.
- Control Overlays: Switches scenes, updates tickers, manages alerts.
- Schedule Programming: Auto Pilot automates Always-On programming — schedules events and rotates experiences.
Creator Token Integration
If you already have a Creator Token, connect it to add token trading fees into your revenue stream. If you don’t, you can mint a Creator Token with Render Expand — it wires your token into the flywheel automatically.- Staker eligibility: All stakers are eligible for revenue sharing based on their staked amount
- Staking choice: Creators may configure staking to their own token or to $555
- Buybacks: A minimum of 20% of all creator revenue is used to buy back the staked token (creators can raise this above 20%)
- Controls: Gate actions (chat modes, overlay triggers) behind $555 or Creator Token thresholds; associate moderator wallets for management
Operations & Reliability
- Session Recovery: Automatic reconnection and state recovery for transient network events.
- Health Metrics: Ingest health, frame drops, CPU/network load recommendations, bitrate guidance.
- Failover & Regions: Region selection with hot fallback; published bitrate and resolution limits per region.
Architecture
555stream runs on a multi-layer stack:| Layer | Role |
|---|---|
| Browser Client | Real-time video capture and WebRTC communication |
| Edge Encoding | Cloud-based video encoding and media storage |
| Control Plane | Scene management, source routing, and configuration |
| SFU Service | Selective Forwarding Unit for multi-party WebRTC |
| Media Engine | Video composition and transcoding pipeline |
| Capture Service | Browser-based capture for recording and clips |
Roadmap: Decentralized Stream
Note: Decentralized streaming is a long-term vision item. The current architecture is centralized cloud infrastructure. These roadmap items have no active implementation path yet.
- Peer-assisted distribution and resilient ingest
- Community-operated nodes with performance and reputation metrics
- Censorship-resistant architecture governed by a future DAO
