AbstractLive streaming, as a new practice of online digital content business, generates revenue mainly through users’ monetary gift giving to content providers. The designs of the live-streaming platforms allow users to experience real-time interactions with both content providers and the virtual community. This study investigates potential motivations regarding the immediacy and real-time social interactivity and tests their impacts on users’ intention of monetary gift giving behavior. The findings will not only extend the self-presentation theory to new contexts but also contribute to the Internet gift economy by elucidating underlying motivations in the victual gifting cycle. The study will offer a new angle for online digital content businesses worldwide on how to construct interactive functions in online communities.
