Network
The Livepeer Network is a global decentralized group of orchestrators that revolutionizes video transcoding, distribution, and AI video processing, enabling developers and content creators to build scalable applications.
About the network
The Livepeer Network leverages a decentralized system of orchestrators to power efficient, scalable, and secure video streaming.
It operates through a decentralized infrastructure that leverages a global pool of node operators, known as orchestrators, to transcode and distribute video content. Video creators or developers submit video streams to the network, where orchestrators compete to perform the work of transcoding – converting videos into various formats to ensure smooth playback across all devices.

What is LPT?
LPT is essential for driving the Livepeer network. Holding LPT allows you to influence the network's direction through governance and provides the opportunity to earn rewards. As a token holder, you are integral to maintaining the network’s decentralization and security.
Applications
Apps use endpoints exposed by Livepeer network Gateway nodes to access network capabilities to power their video experiences.
Gateway Nodes
Gateway nodes receive video compute jobs from apps and route them to the Orchestrator nodes.
Micropayment System
A ticket-based payment system, where gateways send tickets to orchestrators for the jobs performed. Orchestrator nodes can redeem winning tickets for payment.
Orchestrator Nodes
Orchestrator nodes perform transcoding and AI processing jobs using the GPU clusters.
Delegators
Delegators stake to and passively accrue a portion of fees and rewards from the Orchestrator nodes.
