Voise platform is based on the Ethereum blockchain and provides an avenue for artists to publish their work for fans and make 100% of the revenue. It runs via a smart contract, so once the platform is launched people will be able to verify the software for themselves.
On the Voise platform, artists have complete control. If they decide to publish their work to the network, they upload the file and it is published over a peer-to-peer network. People can browse the uploads to find music to their pleasure, and can even listen to samples before purchasing.
VOISE tokens can be used to pay the artists for their content, with every transaction being published to the Ethereum blockchain. Once the transaction is confirmed, the funds will subsequently be sent to the artist’s wallet. The artist will be getting every single penny paid, minus a small transaction fee to broadcast the transaction.
On Voise, an artist can set their own prices and decide how they want to offer samples to their fans. They can even set up a “donation” system, with a small 30-second clip being available initially and after a donation the entire song becomes available.
Voise launched an ICO earlier last year, and the tokens that came from it will be the best way to interact with the platform. You can buy the tokens on exchanges such as HitBTC, Cryptopia, and EtherDelta, with more exchanges planning support.
Pros
- Main features: - Unlike a traditional streaming service where, if it shuts down, your music is gone, with Voise the entire music library will be hosted via a peer-to-peer network, so your music will always be accessible. - This service is not only in demand for digital currency enthusiasts, but the rest of the public. Most people around the world have no idea what Bitcoin is, let alone how to buy, store, and use it. In time, the Voise platform is also set to integrate fiat payments to further open the platform to as many people as possible. - Another nifty feature of Voise is the DAO Radio. This feature allows users to vote on music via the blockchain, letting people rate current songs on a public playlist and vote for new songs to get added.
Cons
- The Whitepaper is poor of real technical details. The team appear to have not so important history developing these types of applications, so problems can arise. In conclusion this project seems to be not competitive compared to other similar platforms (Creativechain) but it's at first steps so there is still a lot of work to do.
