Livepeer LPT
Video computing and network participation.
Livepeer coordinates computing for video and AI tasks. LPT is its staking and network-participation token.
What is Livepeer?
Applications send computing jobs to Livepeer operators, including video conversion and AI inference. Operators supply computing resources, while LPT holders can delegate stake to them. LPT staking and ETH-denominated service fees have different roles.
Delegation does not guarantee income, and token value can fall. Operator performance, protocol rules, and contract risks affect participation.

Video processing
Operators convert video into formats applications need.
AI computing
The network also supports AI inference jobs.
Delegation
LPT holders can back operators without supplying hardware themselves.
Origins & development
Livepeer introduced its initial network on Ethereum mainnet in 2018. Current documentation covers participation on Arbitrum and a broader video and AI computing marketplace.
