DTube is a video sharing platform originally launched in 2017 as a decentralized alternative to YouTube. Initially built on the Steem blockchain and the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), the platform aimed to offer censorship-resistant video hosting with cryptocurrency-based creator rewards. After years of declining activity and technical challenges, DTube was relaunched in December 2025 as a conventional ad-supported video platform, retaining only a lightweight peer-to-peer feature for video delivery.
