what's bond?
Bond is a blockchain platform that allows users to own and invest in music through tokenized shares representing streaming rights and royalties. Artists release limited-edition tokens for their songs, enabling fans and investors to acquire fractional ownership. As streams increase, token holders earn proportional revenue, creating a direct link between music success and financial returns. The system uses blockchain to ensure transparent, immutable records of ownership and payouts, bypassing traditional intermediaries in the music industry. Leveraging smart contracts, Bond facilitates secure transactions and automated royalty distribution. It supports provenance tracking for original tracks, helping creators protect and monetize their work in a decentralized manner. Deployed on networks like Base, the platform reduces costs and improves accessibility for global participation, fostering a community where endorsements and investments in music are tokenized and refundable under certain conditions.
