How are you able to operate a music distribution service for free?

We’re able to offer this by doing what we call ‘royalty capture’. When royalties come back to us from Digital Service Providers and streaming platforms, the royalties are then placed in short-term US Government bonds, or stablecoin pools in various decentralized finance platforms including AAVE and Balancer for one month, or until you meet our minimum withdrawal requirements. During this time, these royalties gain interest, we keep the interest, and you keep 100% of the principal royalty amount.

After this set time, every cent an artist earns beyond a minimal locked amount is always available for withdrawal.
