#sxsw was a lot of fun and we made a lot of music. Here’s a clip from the sprinter van w a @joerogan reference while in ATX
Our guy @3intheVM was with us during #SXSW rapping in the van, making beats in the casita at the Guild House🔥🔥 He can do it all…and he’s got a song with our Founder @PhillipRather that’s yet to come out. Stay tuned!😁

I’m proud to announce we’ve raised $2M in “pre-token” funding and launched @guildtogether in public beta. We believe the total addressable market isn’t starving artists...it’s human creativity itself. Thanks to @CapitalFactory @0xPolygon and all the others who have supported us!

Apple didn’t gracefully change. They got legally forced to stop taxing startups and SMB's 30% just for having a “Buy” button. You can now route payments outside the App Store. NFTs are allowed too.

Web3's biggest rug of all is not enforcing secondary royalties. NFTs were supposed to rewrite the rules for creators. Instead, secondary royalties were never a priority while marketplaces simply pandered to traders.

If enforcing equitable compensation requires jumping through technical hoops, it’s not going to see mass adoption. Under the current NFT use cases, and with no real utility on these platforms themselves, there is not an incentive.

Secondary royalties could change ticketing, memberships, fan economies and so much more. But none of that happens if marketplaces keep playing to the here and now instead of the bigger picture. We cant sell sustainable royalties if we don’t enforce them.

Getting close to the election, and the choices we make will define how we handle monetary policy for years to come.
🛡️ 100 Faces of Crypto 🛡️ As the founder and CEO of musical, @PhillipRather is passionate about emerging web3 platforms that help musicians and other creatives connect, collaborate, and distribute their work in a more equitable fashion. With musical, artists can access AI tools, store their IP immutably, negotiate splits and royalties, and expose rich NFT experiences through the creation process. Fans can invest in the “next Beyonce,” participate in royalties, engage with and advocate for their favorite artists. #StandWithCrypto

The time at Meta taught us a lot of things that influenced how we approached product design and features for @musicalworldapp

A small business would now signify what they are trying to accomplish - foot traffic or appointment sign ups for instance - instead of starting with a marketing picture or description. By focusing on the job a creator needs to do, we can avoid the complexities of new software.

AI and blockchain technology can dramatically impact our ability to create together, but both will need to be integrated into workflows and platform systems to have their full effect.
