PeerStream’s Partnership with YouNow Progresses as SEC Qualifies the First Consumer Reg A+ Token Offering


Integration of Props Tokens as a Loyalty System for Users of PeerStream’s Popular Social Video Apps, Paltalk and Camfrog, Expected in Q3 2019

NEW YORK, NY, July 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE – PeerStream, Inc. (“PeerStream,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) (OTCQB: PEER), a communications software innovator developing enhanced security and privacy solutions for video, voice, and text applications and data transmission, today announced that its partner, YouNow, has completed a significant milestone: the U.S.  Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has qualified YouNow’s Reg A+ offering of Props Tokens, YouNow’s utility token for cross-app rewards. This is the first consumer token offering to be qualified under Reg A+.

As previously announced, PeerStream’s popular social video apps, Paltalk and Camfrog, two of the largest live video social communities, will be among the first apps to integrate the Props token-based user reward system. The Props Token is designed to enable a decentralized network of apps, operating independently of one another, to share an underlying currency that rewards end-users who create, consume and engage with content and services. 

Alex Harrington, CEO of PeerStream, commented: “We’re thrilled that Props received approval for the first consumer token offering under Reg A+. Now that this regulatory approval has been obtained, we are eagerly working towards roll-out within our apps.”
