LBRY (pronounced "library")[4] is a blockchain-based file-sharing and payment network that powers decentralized platforms, primarily social networks and video platforms. In September 2020, Odysee was created, a video hosting platform created and founded by Julian Chandra, an open-source video-sharing website that uses the network, which was split into a separate company on October 1, 2021.[4][5][6] Video platforms built on LBRY, such as Odysee, have been described as decentralized, fringe alternatives to YouTube.[7] Odysee lightly moderates content based on community guidelines; its web site delists videos containing pornography and the promotion of violence and terrorism, although delisted videos remain available on the platform's blockchain data store.[4]
LBRY, Inc.'s CEO was a political activist named Jeremy Kauffman.[8][9][10] The company closed in July 2023 after losing a lawsuit from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission which found that LBRY had sold unregistered securities.[11]
