UPLOADING MUSIC IS FREE FOR THE FIRST YEAR.

Distribute up to 12 Songs during our launch window (June 2024 to June 2025)

1). We charge a one-time $60 set-up fee.

We'll help you understand lighting wallets and payments, shareholder splits, decentralized social media and distribution strategies.

After that you'll be able to self upload right to your Phantom Power account, where you'll have access to legal documents, split sheets, and promotional information.

**Singles work best for now. We suggest a new song every 3-4 weeks if you have a back catalog.

2). We Are Value4Value

What does that mean? It means when you win, we win. Value 4 Value means we are motivated to share and promote your music. We are here to be a partner. Not a debtor.

We take 5% of incoming lightning payments for all music that is distributed through us. We work with multiple partners to find the best place to place your music and ensure that everyone is paid fairly and legally.

Imagine a world where 95% of the revenue comes directly to you, instead of to the gatekeepers.

We'll promote you on:

Valuecasts (think pirate radio that pays)

Podcasts (lifestyle and news shows that are all lightning enabled)

And, that is just the beginning!

We are already hosting live lightning enabled performance opportunities (see our upcoming events page for more info) and over the next year we will have dozens of new worldwide events to feature artists who are making this movement a reality.

Here's the thing: Early adopters always have an advantage. Now is the time ⚡️ What do you have to lose? $60?

Value-4-Value is both a monetization model and a philosophy. It is a content format that allows fans to directly boost artists when they enjoy their work - without subscriptions or paywalls. There have been many success stories in music, using direct to fan tools like “Patreon” and “Go-Fund Me.” These solutions have proven that fans are eager to have a direct connection to their favorite musicians.

This decentralized distribution model and Value-4-Value takes those ideas one step further by allowing fans to reward you directly when they are listening in app, something that cannot be done in any traditional distribution or current platforms. This experience becomes truly participatory and reciprocal.

The default monetization model you're currently being subjected to relies heavily on corporate surveillance, walled gardens, controlled by algorithms and gameable analytics. The major labels and distribution companies have near total control of your revenue stream.

By controlling the revenue stream they will always control you, your music, your ability to make an income and your ability to connect with your fans in truly meaningful and direct ways.

Value-4-Value is about open standards, connection and sound financial management. Value-4-Value offers a truly revolutionary way forward.

At this time, we suggest that decentralized distribution be an additional revenue stream, not a replacement of traditional distribution through partners like DistroKid, CD Baby and others. We recommend artists continue to pursue opportunities within the mainstream music industry until this new technology segment matures.

At this time we do not. Think of joining the Valueverse as an added revenue stream. We encourage professionally aspiring artists to keep doing their thing in the traditional music industry. These revenues do not overlap with any existing royalty collections or laws. If you are an independent artist, free of obligation to a label or financial underwriter, there is no statutory regulation for collecting lighting payments by anyone other than YOU.
