A New Model for Content Platforms
Xylotube represents a fundamental shift in how content platforms operate. Unlike traditional models where platforms are owned by external shareholders, Xylotube is owned by its creators and members who actively participate in the platform's ecosystem.
Platform Ownership by Creators
Xylotube's revolutionary model ensures that those who create value on the platform own the platform itself. Through our unique Membership Share system, creators earn ownership stakes proportional to their content's engagement and value.
Governance Structure
Xylotube operates under a democratic governance model where members elect a Board of Directors to oversee platform operations, strategic direction, and financial management.
Board Election Process
Each year, Xylotube members participate in elections to select representatives to the Board of Directors. The election process is designed to be transparent, fair, and representative of the diverse community on the platform.
Every member with at least 100 Membership Shares gains voting rights, with each share representing one vote. This ensures that those most invested in the platform's success have a proportional say in its governance.

Dividend Distribution
As a creator-owned platform, Xylotube distributes a significant portion of its profits back to members through quarterly dividends. The dividend amount is proportional to the number of Membership Shares each member holds.
In Q2 2023, Xylotube distributed $12.3 million in dividends to members, representing 45% of net profits. Our charter mandates that at least 40% of net profits be returned to members through dividends each quarter.
