Livepeer is a network run by independent computer hardware providers, builders, and engineers who operate it and help decide its direction. Of the 7 things it promised, it delivered 1, 6 are still open (2 with no date); the next dated step is Q3 2026. It trades at $1.37, #362 of all coins by size, 99% below its highest ever price.
This week Nothing changed on its record.
A real job, real backing. Delivered 1 of 7, none late. Next step in 15 days. +19% to match its rivals. Nothing to be careful of on the record.

To be worth what the typical coin in Video and media is worth ($81.49M), its price would need to rise 19%, to about $1.64. To match the leader, Theta Network, 173%.

What to do Add it to My coins and come back on Q3 2026, when it says it will deliver: The team will get the network ready to support the Livepeer Agent product. That step adds use of the coin, which is what a bigger market cap has to come from. If it lands, the record moves; if it slips, so does the case.
A gap is not a forecast. Most small coins never close it. The site never picks.
Four tests, printed. Passing all four means a real job, real backing, something ahead, and a price far below the leader of its group. A filter on facts, never a verdict.
Every line has a source: the coin's own listing, CoinGecko's tags, the record, or the news feed. Reputation here is a count, never an opinion.

Video and media: this coin next to Theta Network, the biggest rival within reach. People go to the bigger coin unless the smaller one does something it does not.

- Livepeer is a network run by independent computer hardware providers, builders, and engineers who operate it and help decide its direction.
- Theta Network says
- Theta Network says it provides on-demand computer processing power for artificial intelligence, entertainment and media, for both universities and businesses.
Two claims, side by side, in their own words. Whether the difference is real is for the record to show over time, and for you to judge.
Livepeer is a network run by independent computer hardware providers, builders, and engineers who operate it and help decide its direction.
Its listing puts it this way: The Livepeer project aims to deliver a live video streaming network protocol that is fully decentralized, highly scalable, crypto token incentivized, and results in a solution which can serve as the live media layer in the decentralized development (web3) stack.
Problem it says it solves: AI services. 37 coins we have checked say the same; together they are worth $24,708,545,527.
Where it trades: Coinbase, Crypto.com, Kraken, Binance, Binance US
Each bar is a coin's worth today (price × coins out), longest first. The lit bar is this coin; grey bars are the others doing the same job.
Bars are market cap. Order is size, nothing else. Differences are measured from the coin you are looking at.
What should make me careful?

None of the six tests fails. A missed promise counts only on a record a person has checked.

The tests: nothing to hold it for, more missed than delivered, priced ahead of its record, half the supply still to come, rivals ship while it does not, a big release of coins soon.
