Video on VoiceBan is deliberately different: 60-second clips that live for 30 days unless people care enough to reshare them — and every reshare pays the creator in VBAN, verified on-chain. Plus the Voice Lobby: live rooms that are voice only, on purpose.
A clip is at most 60 seconds, and it lives for 30 days. Then it's gone — unless people reshare it, because resharing extends a clip's life. Attention, not storage, decides what persists.
That's a deliberate inversion of the infinite-archive model. Most video is conversation, and conversation is allowed to end. What the network keeps carrying is what the network keeps choosing — clip by clip, share by share.
Short on purpose — a thought, a moment, a reply
Every clip has a clock
Shares reset the clock — the crowd votes with attention
Ephemeral on the network doesn't mean lost to you. Every clip can be downloaded, by anyone who can watch it, and every download carries a VoiceBan watermark. Your work travels with your network's name on it — off-platform sharing becomes distribution, not theft of attribution.
When your clip is reshared, you get paid — in VBAN, to your wallet, with the qualifying share verified on-chain before it pays. Not points, not a "creator fund" IOU: the same coin the whole network runs on, moving because your work moved.
The Lobby is VoiceBan's live layer: drop-in rooms that are voice only. No camera anxiety, no face required, no video performance — just people talking, live, the way this network started.
The Lobby is also exempt from verification ranking entirely: it's live voice end to end, so the thing the voice badge measures is already happening in front of everyone.
None of this — clips, watermarks, rewards, rooms — sits between you and publishing. Posting is never conditional on verification, on badges, or on anyone's approval. Features earn you reach and rewards; they never buy you the right to speak, because on VoiceBan that right isn't for sale in either direction.
