DLive is an American video live streaming service that was founded in 2017. It was purchased by BitTorrent, Inc. in 2019. Due to the site's lax enforcement of prohibited content guidelines, DLive has become a popular alternative to YouTube and Twitch among white supremacists, conspiracy theorists, neo-Nazis, neo-fascists, and extremists. The site is also used by gamers as an alternative to Twitch.
DLive uses a blockchain for its donation systems. It originally operated on the Steemit blockchain, before switching to the Lino network upon its relaunch in September 2018, and later TRON network after its 2019 purchase by BitTorrent.
