FROM THE FIRST PLAY
Built around the music.\u200b
A community can start the market. Only the artist can claim their creator profile.
02
Launch the market
Create a Solana market connected to that artist.
03
Fees accumulate
Creator fees are allocated to the underlying artist.
04
Artist claims
The artist verifies their SoundCloud identity, connects a wallet and claims eligible earnings.
THE PRINCIPLE IS SIMPLE
Creator fees have
one destination.
100% of app-level creator fees belong to the artist. Paid Sound takes no share of creator fees.
Launch an artist marketCommunity-created ≠ artist-endorsed.
Anyone can start a market. Artist verification confirms account ownership; it never automatically endorses a token.
Unclaimed doesn’t mean unallocated.
Fees belong to the canonical SoundCloud creator, even before the artist connects a wallet.
Every cost has a name.
Network rent and third-party protocol fees are separate from creator fees. They are disclosed before signing.
Development mode is explicit.
Demo records are fictional. The devnet provider creates real test tokens, with no liquidity, trading fees or withdrawable balances. Trading and settlement require a separately integrated production protocol.
