**Today, we released a new version of LBRY beta with tools to publish your own original content!**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now anyone with access to LBRY beta can reserve [LBRY names](https://lbry.com/what#naming) and publish their own original, digital content.
|
|
|
|
We've *finally* come around and have to admit that LBRY has the potential to be much more than the world's most efficient [media player of *It's a Wonderful Life*](https://lbry.com/news/our-christmas-surprise).
|
|
|
|
First, we launched with [*It's a Disaster*](lbry://itsadisaster) and [*Fight of the Century: Keynes vs. Hayek Rap Battle*](lbry://keynesvhayek). That was pretty cool, and we're stoked to be the first protocol in the world to stream a Hollywood feature film via blockchain.
|
|
|
|
Then July happened.
|
|
|
|
The whirlwind of growth over the past few weeks has left our team floored by the response to our [beta release](https://lbry.com/news/beta-live-declare-independence-big-media). We have a waiting list of over 100,000 future LBRYians standing by for their opportunity tell the mainstream media middlemen to take a hike.
|
|
|
|
And now LBRY beta users can do just that...
|
|
|
|
When you open LBRY, you will also notice 3 areas on the homescreen displaying LBRY's current featured content. These areas correspond to the LBRY names "One", "Two", and "Three" (lbry://one, etc.). Anyone can bid for those names and get your content featured on LBRY's opening screen!
|
|
|
|
The true power of LBRY is allowing creators to connect directly with their audience. So what are you waiting for? Go and do it!
|
|
|
|
Oh... you don't have an invite yet? Avoid waiting longer than you have to by [joining the beta waiting list now](https://lbry.com/get).
|
|
|
|
**Plus, we've got another little secret...**
|
|
|
|
If you're a content creator, you can submit your original work to us for a chance to jump the waiting list (100K strong and growing). Our goal is to turn LBRY into a one-stop-shop of the best original content available on the internet. So we want to reward those who are interested in using LBRY as it is meant to be used.
|
|
|
|
**And we're serious about the reward part. Accepted partners receive $1,000 in LBC.**
