Happy new year 2026! The 2025 in short…

The 2025 was a particular year in which we revolutionized the updates to the platform- [Platform: the set of the main domain and all the subdomain of a particular website; also the computer architecture and equipment using a particular operating system] - . At the beginning of the year, everything was very calm, we strengthened new partnerships, we took some time to recharge; from the celebrations of the 17th anniversary onwards, we have released a lot of updates, new features and completely new open source codes. You can say that we have revolutionized part of MYETV platform with open source functionalities developed internally by us. At the end, it was a fantastic year and we want to continue like this improving existing functionalities and adding new ones. As always, we do a recap of all the updates of the year to get a point on the new functionalities and those that will come in the coming months.

A Look Ahead: The Foundation for 2026

As we close the chapter on 2025, it is clear that this year wasn’t just about “updates” it was about restructuring the very DNA of MYETV. When we look back at the roadmap we traveled, from the heavy lifting of backend encryption changes to the visible polish of our open source video player, every single line of code was written with one goal: sustainability.

We have spent the last twelve months building a fortress. By integrating Cloudflare’s cutting-edge performance and security, shifting to robust encryption standards like Argon2id, and rewriting core components like the File Manager and Video Player as open-source projects, we haven’t just patched the platform; we have prepared it for the next decade. The “Winter Update” wasn’t just a feature drop; it was the proof of concept that our new architecture is stable, scalable, and ready for whatever the future of the web throws at us.

So, what does 2026 hold?

If 2025 was the year of Revolution, 2026 will be the year of Evolution. We are now sitting on a powerful engine the new MYAI, the decentralized potential of our P2P- [Peer-To-Peer Network: is a network made up of many p2p keys that can communicate with each other held together by a central system that can control them] - sync features, and a fully customizable plugin ecosystem. In the coming year, we aim to push the boundaries of how content is not just consumed, but interacted with. We plan to deepen the integration of artificial intelligence to help creators manage their networks more intuitively, and we will continue to champion the open-source philosophy that allowed us to grow so much this year. We want to see developers use our player, fork our file manager, and contribute to an ecosystem that belongs to everyone.

We also haven’t forgotten the community aspect. The introduction of MYCOINS in public networks and the new tipping systems were just the start. We want to empower creators to build real, sustainable economies within their networks, giving value back to the people who make MYETV what it is.

Finally, I want to thank every single user, developer, and partner who stuck with us through the hard times and celebrated with us during our 17th anniversary in June. Your feedback, your bug reports, and your content are the fuel that keeps this engine running.

Here is to clean code, zero downtime, and limitless creativity.

Happy New Year from the entire MYETV team. See you in 2026!
