Greetings Steemians! This is my first official developer update for the DMJ project. Currently I'm working towards an MVP and half finally completed one of the milestones towards that objective. My latest commit to the BitBucket contains a smart contract that is designed to receive an IPFS Hash, generates the checksum on-chain, then stores it immutably. Although doing the checksum computation on-chain is more costly then doing it off-chain, it allows everyone to verify correct execution, computation, and return data.

My next step is to finish writing a mock server-side app in python (this will eventually be re-written in go to enable faster execution, and concurrency). This app will watch a directory where video files will be saved, and when it detects a new video/upload it stores it in IPFS, forwarding the hash to smart contract to store a checksum of the hash.

Once I have that done, I will construct a basic p2p streaming service using livepeer. I'm aiming to have an MVP ready by October of this year at the latest, as implementing the p2p streaming service requires rewriting some of the go code. Currently it is a one man self-funded project, so I don't get as much time to work on it as I like. If anyone would like to help with this project I would be more than grateful for some help!
