and performs actions defined by the system. In Livepeer architecture, “actor” is a formal category used to describe participants with distinct responsibilities, incentives, and interactions. Actors are fundamental to describing how the network functions end-to-end from a systems engineering perspective.
Livepeer’s ecosystem involves both protocol actors (on-chain roles) and network actors (network participants and builders)
Actors are the participants that make the Livepeer network function economically and technically.
Core Actors
The Livepeer network has three main actor roles: Orchestrators, Delegators, and Gateways (formerly called Broadcasters)
. (Transcoders now refer simply to the GPU instances attached to Orchestrators.) Each plays a distinct part:
Orchestrators (Node Operators): These run the go-livepeer client software and provide compute (usually GPU-accelerated) to transcode video streams or run AI inference jobs
. Orchestrators stake LPT (self-bond) to become active: the higher their stake (plus delegated stake), the more work they are assigned
. They set pricing parameters (ETH per pixel, fee share %, reward share %) and must call on-chain functions (like reward) to claim ETH fees and LPT inflation each round
. To run efficiently, orchestrators typically use hardware encoders (e.g. Nvidia NVENC/NVDEC) and maintain strong network connectivity
.
Delegators (Token Holders): Any LPT holder can stake their tokens by delegating to one or more Orchestrators. This strengthens network security and gives Delegators a share of the rewards. Delegation does not transfer token ownership – the LPT remains in the delegator’s wallet, bonded by the staking contract. In return, Delegators receive a fraction of each Orchestrator’s fees and inflation (according to the Orchestrator’s chosen feeShare and rewardShare percentages)
. Delegators must stay staked (and migrated to Arbitrum) to continue earning; after Confluence, failing to move stake would forfeit rewards
. Delegators also gain governance rights: they can detach their stake to vote on proposals, or vote via their Orchestrator
.
Gateways (Broadcasters/Clients): Gateways are entities that publish video streams or AI inference requests to the network (these were called Broadcasters pre-Confluence)
. A Gateway sends raw media segments to the network along with ETH to pay for services. It negotiates with Orchestrators (off-chain) to select a suitable worker, attaches tickets as payment promises for each segment, and eventually receives the transcoded output. Gateways pay ETH fees (on-chain via the TicketBroker contract) and do not need LPT. They may either retrieve finished videos for end-users, or forward them to streaming clients via CDN. Gateways are the network’s demand side and do not earn stake rewards.
🔍 Key Role Flow: Delegators ▶ stake LPT to support Orchestrators, which powers security and gives Delegators a cut of rewards
. Orchestrators ▶ register on-chain, declare capacity and pricing, then accept work from Gateways. Gateways ▶ submit video/AI jobs (paying fees) to Orchestrators for processing, receiving back transformed data.

Role Summary
Developers And Applications
- Bring demand into the network
- Integrate through gateway-facing APIs
- Optimise for latency, quality, and cost
Gateway Operators
- Provide job intake and coordination
- Match workloads to available orchestrators
- Handle routing, retries, and service-level interfaces
Orchestrator Operators
- Provide supply-side compute participation
- Execute or coordinate transcoding and AI workloads
- Earn fees and rewards based on activity and stake backing
Delegators
- Bond LPT to orchestrators
- Influence security and economic weight
- Share in reward and fee outcomes
Interaction Pattern
Applications do not usually coordinate directly with every compute node.
A common pattern is:
- Application -> Gateway -> Orchestrator -> Gateway -> Application
This separation improves operator specialization and system composability.
Actor Pages
Why Role Separation Matters
- Better developer experience on the demand side
- Operational specialization on the supply side
- Open competition across service and compute providers
- Clearer accountability for pricing, performance, and reliability
