Audius (AUDIO) is a decentralized music streaming platform built on blockchain, designed to empower artists by allowing them to share music directly with fans without intermediaries. Unlike traditional music platforms, Audius gives artists full control over their content and revenue streams. Artists can upload their music to Audius for free and earn AUDIO tokens, the platform’s native cryptocurrency, as rewards for sharing exclusive content or achieving certain milestones.

AUDIO tokens are used for governance (voting on platform changes), staking (to secure the network), and unlocking special features. The platform leverages blockchain to ensure transparency and fairness, providing a more artist-centric approach to music distribution while building a community where both artists and listeners can benefit directly.
