About

Founded in 2018, it just surpassed 5 Million monthly active users in August

Audius is a fully decentralized music streaming protocol built with public blockchain infrastructure (Ethereum, Solana) and other decentralized technologies (e.g, IPFS) — whitepaper. Audius allows artists to distribute to and get paid directly from their fans, and is comprised of the following components:

  • ERC-20 utility token $AUDIO

Top artists and active users may earn $AUDIO tokens as rewards

 

Users stake $AUDIO to secure the platform, and in return receive a share of network fees, governance weight, and exclusive feature unlocks

 

  • A decentralized storage solution and ledger for sharing audio and metadata
    • authors can generate immutable and timestamped records
  • A unique track encryption scheme
  • A discovery protocol for users to efficiently query metadata
