NFTs

The platform is designed for artists to mint NFTs of their work and get paid for them in full without any third-party interference. Artists may mint various forms of such pieces, including singles, albums, EPs/LPs, sample packs, instructional technique videos and many other types of musical production and composition work. These may or may not be exclusive to music. They certainly can include images, videos, or 3D objects. However they must have some form of musical attribute.

Artists will have the ability to mint editions or 1/1 tokens as they desire.

NFT Staking

When an NFT is purchased it becomes locked to the owner. This person may choose to Stake their NFT on the artist's profile to receive Sonus tokens as a reward. They will be displayed as the owner, but it will be presented for other users to see and listen to freely as part of the collection from an artist. This enables a peek into what could be very exclusive content depending on how rare an artist makes their work. Currently this will only work with 1/1 mints. If a good enough suggestion/use case is made in the DAO, implementation for staking editions may also be considered.

NFT Marketplace

Users that purchase an NFT from an artist may post it for sale in the marketplace. Marketplace sales can be a flat rate or go for auction.
