Music and humans are absolutely inseparable, and music is widely considered to be the key to self expression and experiencing life to its fullest. At first glance, it seems like there’s no room for improvement in this field, however, modern technologies have consistently improved the way we experience music, providing us with high-quality hardware and software, subscription platforms, and easy access to limitless artists capable of satisfying anyone’s individual tastes.
Recently, we has seen a variety of artists experiment with blockchain technology.
