System And Method For A Real Time Streaming Video Platform

Filed: December 27, 2018

Published: March 23, 2021

Inventor: Gabriel De La Vega

Application No: 16/234218

This patent covers critical technology for real-time live streaming video platforms that forms the backbone of many modern live streaming services operating today.

Time-Sensitive Opportunity

These valuable patents will expire in 2027. We must take legal action now to secure rightful compensation for their widespread use by major technology companies.

Patent Litigation Beyond Expiration

Crucial Timeline Strategy

Key Legal Principle

Patent litigation can continue for years after patent expiration as long as the legal proceedings are initiated before the patent expires.

Our enforcement strategy is based on this critical legal principle: we must file all patent infringement cases before the 2027 patent expiration date, but the actual litigation process, settlements, and damage collections can continue well beyond 2027.

This means that even though our patents expire in 2027, we can potentially collect substantial damages for many years afterward, as patent infringement cases often take 3-7 years to fully resolve through the legal system.

Legal Basis:

Under U.S. patent law, a patent holder can sue for damages occurring during the patent term (before expiration), even if the lawsuit extends well beyond the expiration date. The statute of limitations allows filing up to six years after the infringement occurred.

Global Market Value & Opportunity

China's $720 Billion Live Streaming Market

According to authoritative data from iResearch, a leading Chinese market research firm, China's live streaming industry has reached an astounding $720 billion in revenue - dramatically higher than other market estimates.

This figure has been widely cited in respected industry publications:

"This figure is expected to further grow to RMB 4.9 trillion (US$720 billion) in 2023, according to a 2021 iResearch report."

- China Briefing, "China's Livestream Industry: Impact on Market and Business Strategy"

Cross-Border Enforcement Value

Under US patent law, when foreign live streaming content enters US jurisdiction and uses patented monetization methods, it becomes subject to US patent laws, even if the stream originates outside the country.

Key Value Point:

With China's live streaming market at $720 billion, even if only 5% of this content enters US jurisdiction, this represents an $36 billion addressable market for patent enforcement.

Global Market Projections

  • IMARC Group: Market to reach $605.2 billion by 2033
  • Market Research Future: Live streaming market to reach $1,050.7 billion by 2035
  • Custom Market Insights: Market to reach $712.9 billion by 2033

Growth Impact:

With China's market showing a 53% year-on-year growth rate, the potential future value for patent enforcement grows dramatically each year until patent expiration in 2027.

Potential Enforcement Value

$1.24 Billion

Conservative estimate through patent expiration

$4-4.5 Billion

Moderate scenario based on standard market

$8.8 Billion

Optimistic scenario including Chinese market

These projections are based on standard industry royalty rates of 2-5% applied to the addressable market through patent expiration in 2027.

Post-Expiration Returns

With litigation extending beyond the 2027 patent expiration date, damage calculations would include infringement from the entire statutory period (up to 6 years prior to filing), potentially yielding additional billions in settlements and judgments through 2030 and beyond.

China's $720 Billion Market Impact

With China's live streaming market at $720 billion per iResearch data, even a modest 5% of this content entering US jurisdiction represents a $36 billion addressable market. Applying standard royalty rates of 2-3% could yield $720 million to $1.08 billion annually from Chinese content alone.

* These projections are based on standard royalty rates applied to the global live streaming market, with particular emphasis on the Chinese market data from iResearch. Actual results may vary based on litigation outcomes and market developments.

Why Invest Now?

Timeline Urgency

  • Current (June 2025): Case preparation and initial filings
  • Late 2025-2026: Discovery and litigation proceedings
  • 2026: Settlement negotiations or trial
  • 2027: Patent expiration deadline - all cases must be filed before this date
  • 2027-2030+: Continued litigation, judgments, and damage collections

Extended Revenue Timeline

While we must file before patents expire in 2027, litigation and revenue collection can continue for 3-7 years beyond expiration, maximizing the investment return window.

Competitive Advantages

  • Early Priority Dates: Patents predate widespread adoption of live streaming technology
  • Clear Infringement: Documented use by major technology companies
  • Massive Market: Global live streaming video market ($720B+ with China)
  • Multiple Targets: Six major companies provide multiple potential revenue sources
  • Post-Expiration Value: Revenue collection extending years beyond patent expiration

Global Enforcement Potential

US Patent Jurisdiction Over Foreign Content

Under US patent law (35 U.S.C. § 271), anyone who "makes, uses, offers to sell, or sells any patented invention, within the United States" is liable for patent infringement.

When foreign live streaming content enters US jurisdiction and uses our patented monetization methods, it becomes subject to US patent laws, even if the stream originates outside the country.

Enforcement Principles:

  • The use of patented technologies within US territory constitutes infringement
  • Foreign entities with US market presence can be subject to US court jurisdiction
  • Revenue from US viewers/users falls under US patent protection
  • Foreign companies streaming to US audiences must comply with US patent law

How Foreign Content Enters US Jurisdiction

  • Cross-border e-commerce platforms
  • TikTok and similar social media apps
  • Chinese live streaming platforms with US audiences
  • Global gaming platforms hosting foreign streamers
  • Cross-border live shopping events
  • International distribution partnerships

China's Impact: With China's live streaming market at $720 billion per iResearch data, even a small percentage of this content entering US jurisdiction represents an enormous potential infringement value.
