Music Protocol is a modular Layer 1 blockchain designed by and for the music industry. Music Protocol transforms static music intellectual property into flexible, programmable assets. This approach generates profit and fractionalized income and licensing across the digital landscape, creating significant financial returns. By leveraging blockchain technology, we facilitate direct connections between artists and consumers, opening new avenues for fan engagement (gaming and metaverse), innovation (AI), and financial growth (RWAs).
