we need to see more independent musicians thrive in web3. the music industry screams for new ways of monetization, but nothing truly groundbreaking has happened in the past years. that's something i think about often, and i'm still yet to find the answers for what can be done about it.

The real issue is that there’s no solid web3 protocol musicians can truly rely on yet. Even as a music fan, there’s no web3 platform that keeps pulling me in. Everyone seems to either pivot or shut down. I also feel like the blockchain guarantees aren’t well understood. Is my song really going to stay available on IPFS or Arweave like they promise? Am I just taking their word for it, or is there actually a way for me to verify this myself?

i believe it goes even further. it's hard to pay attention to a 2-3 minute song, it's time consuming...specially in a space that moves this fast. jpegs did well because it doesn't take you more than a second to process what's going on...with music, we need something completely different, not just a platform to mint stuff.

That’s an interesting point, but I feel like a song, with its artwork, should be seen as more valuable in that way. Even with jpegs, it’s not clear to me what collectors really care about. I don’t get why PFPs get more hype than photography NFTs. I’m willing to bet it’s more about speculation than the actual art. I also think the profile picture is super powerful and underrated, especially by people who aren’t crypto natives
