K-Tune – ICO Detailed Information

K-Tune is a Switzerland-based blockchain project that is comprised of the Korean lovers of K-Pop. Their Ethereum-based platform is set to bring together the aspiring musicians with real professionals of this industry in order to develop and expand the K-Pop scene.

K-Tune: A Blockchain Gateway for Musicians

There are three main participants in K-Tune’s ecosystem namely, music-makers, masters, and music fans.

• Music-makers, or artists, can obtain access to a set of K-Tune’s proprietary software for an established monthly subscription, which they can pay in KTT tokens. By using this software, artists can create high-quality music content, which then can be cataloged and put up for sale. Other musicians can browse the K-Tune extensive database, fish out instrumental tracks that suit their current creative needs, and purchase them with KTT or other means of payment. The musicians can also receive royalties in KTT, with all transactions being embedded in the Ethereum smart contracts. 
• Masters is the category that includes professional musicians, such as beatmakers, lyrics writers, singing specialists, and topliners, who are affiliated with K-Tune in one way or another. Their task is to help fledgling artists to make steps in the right direction through advice, track engineering, and practical training. Masters get compensated for their consultations in the native cryptocurrency. Moreover, in case a master recognizes a real potential in an artist throughout their cooperation, he would be free to offer the young talent a spot in other high-profile projects.
• Music fans are afforded an opportunity to not only listen to all tracks available in the K-Tune network but also earn moderate amounts of KTT by merely streaming music on different social media outlets. The tokens can also be obtained through the airdrop program. In addition, listeners can use an upvote option, thanks to which they may also earn small sums of KTT. Finally, fans can donate a desired amount of tokens to their favorite artists. 

Arena and Camp

The ecosystem itself is divided into two major functional parts: the so-called K-Arena and K-Camp., both of which are tailored to suit the needs of all network members.

• The first is the music marketplace, where all participants are given a chance to put up different types of content (tracks, lyrics, video tutorials, etc.) for sale, while others can freely buy it at a suitable price at an appropriate price in KTT.
• The second is a virtual collaboration space where semi-amateur musicians can work together on intellectual products with intent to sell them to the professional artists.
