What is Corite CO? Everything about CO token

In 2021, recorded music revenues reached 25.9 billion USD, with 65% coming from streaming music. The majority of revenue was generated by large music streaming services such as Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube.

However, most musicians make little to no money from their songs. Having fans on Instagram, Tik Tok, or YouTube does not always transfer to Spotify followers and streams, or ticket sales.

The rise of NFT has made it simpler for musicians to engage with fans. According to Water & Music's "NFT market update April 2021" report, musicians have sold 70.5 million USD worth of NFTs to date.

What is Corite CO? 

Corite CO is a decentralized music distribution platform, developed on BNB Chain. Corite CO allows musicians to generate funds, receive fan support, and in return, share their revenues from major streaming platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and TikTok.

With Corite, artists have full control and ownership over their content, while fans can enjoy the music and communicate directly with their favorite artists. Corite's business model is similar to Play to Earn, where artists and fans are rewarded with CO tokens, badges, NFTs, etc. when contributing their parts.

Corite CO can be seen as the blockchain version of Spotify. On June 6, 2022, Corite was awarded as one of the featured projects on BNB Chain.

How does Corite CO work?

For artists

Artists can get funding and marketing support from backers through crowdfunding campaigns. A typical campaign includes a presentation of the artist and the music, previous accomplishments, social follows, photos, and a snippet of the music.

Artists can also create challenges that fans must achieve in order to be rewarded. Some challenges are automatically created when the artist achieves a certain goal or milestone.

Artists will gain Fan Power tokens after releasing songs and setting up fan challenges. Besides, artists can also create and sell Corite Originals, music NFTs that exist in the BEP-1155 standard. These NFTs have attributes and features that increase NFT's possibilities in the world of music.

Songs are released through Corite to all major music services, including Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Tidal, Amazon Music, Shazam, Youtube, and Tiktok.

For fans

Fans can become marketers, sponsors, co-creators, listeners, followers… of their favorite artists. After participating in the fundraising campaign, fans can track the song’s release process and receive a real-time revenue share from all major streaming services. 

The Fan Power tokens represent how active fans are. The more tokens fans own, the more incentives and benefits they will enjoy. The amount of Fan Power tokens is determined by:

• Number of artists supported.
• Number of NFTs purchased or earned.
• Completed fan missions.
• Following artists on Spotify and other services.
• Sharing music on social media.
• Creating and sharing playlists.
• Numbers of songs reviewed.

CO token Use Cases

CO token holders can take part in crowdfunding campaigns, receive discounts, have early access to new releases, contribute to the platform in exchange for rewards, trade Corite Originals NFTs, generate social tokens, join DAOs, and administer the Corite ecosystem.

By locking CO tokens, fans will gain early access to crowdfunding campaigns. The CO tokens locked will be returned after the campaign is over.
