Chingari and Bolt Global bring together India’s leading content creators

Across the rise and peak of web2 platforms, content creators have learned that it’s their imagination and work upon which a platform’s success relies.

Any benefits have been greatly skewed towards the operator on web2, rather than the creator. So it’s no surprise that as the digital world transitions into web3, platforms are emerging that offer a much fairer deal to the millions of people who are developing that amazing content.

Leading the charge are Chingari and Bolt+. Both platforms are tightly focused on building a sustainable creator economy that benefits everyone fairly. Platforms upon which creators can build a community, a content catalogue to be proud of, and a genuine career.

Chingari is one of India’s biggest rising social stars, offering a social, short-form video platform that’s supercharged with a vibrant web3 ecosystem. With more than 50 million users and boasting over 1.6 billion views, it topped the Indian download charts and provided a home to the country’s biggest creators, along with their huge communities of fans.

Bolt has approached social content from a different angle. Bolt+ is a web3 content-sharing platform with a smart TV app that’s pre-installed on over 8 million TVs, a self-custody BoltX digital asset wallet, and its own EVM-compatible media-focused blockchain, BoltChain. Combined with the BoltOS toolset, content creators have everything they need to launch, operate, and earn from their very own interactive TV channels. 

“A partnership between Chingari and Bolt was an easy choice,” says Sumit Ghosh, CEO and co-founder at Chingari. “We share a lot of the core values, not least of them being a fair and sustainable economy for content creators. So we’re kickstarting our partnership by launching a Chingari TV channel on Bolt+. This new social TV experience allows us to bring some of India’s most popularAbout Chingari
