Video conferencing applications and programs have become in great demand after the spread of the Corona virus in various parts of the world, so that video conferencing via the Internet is not just a blessing for remote workers, but rather a lifeline for companies that have been separated from their customers.

Enter SmartSession, an Ethereum-based firewall for Zoom calls, is a blockchain app that has been approved for use on the video conferencing platform.

How to make money from Zoom calls:

Instead of letting people watch lessons, free of charge, on Zoom, presenters, or anyone using SmartSession, can cash in on the program by accepting only paid users and blocking other users.

This means that anyone who wants to learn how to do something through Zoom must first buy, and then spend, Ethereum on SmartSession smart contracts.

There is another benefit, as smart links can reward people for the referrals they provide.

Erez Ben Kiki, founder and CEO of 2key, the Israeli company that is developing the software, said:

If a yoga instructor wants to raise $20 per participant, for example, he can choose to reward participants for bringing in new subscribers.

Ben Kiki said the system was created within three weeks, and is the first blocking wall to be adopted by Zoom.

Zoom security boom:

The advent of Zoom has been very successful, booming even more amid the lockdowns imposed by governments during the coronavirus pandemic.

A few months ago, Zoom had about 10 million users, last month, the number today has reached 200 million users and then according to some recent news reports it has risen to 300 million users.

Companies have had to quickly adapt to the new normal. Ben Kiki’s wife, a yoga instructor, for example, has moved all of her yoga online.

Ben Kiki admits that not all of its students are interested in cryptocurrencies or have enough technical knowledge to buy some, but about 20 people agreed to pay them in crypto, which is good enough according to Ben Kiki.

Those without a browser extension like the MetaMask wallet can take advantage of the in-app Ethereum SmartSession wallet, which supports the direct purchase of Ethereum with 17 supported fiat currencies.

Next month, Ben Kiki said that it will also be possible to pay with DAI, USDT and TUSD stablecoins. In the next quarter, other currencies will be added, including Bitcoin.

Like many crypto products, SmartSession is on the cusp of going mainstream, Ben Kiki said:

We’ve just started promoting it, so no users yet, but plenty of conferences in the space (it’s all online now) and entrepreneurs have already expressed plans to use it from next week.
