levyThe Beginner's Guide to Music NFTs
NFTs are opening the door to a new business model for musicians, allowing them to monetize their music in a way that has never been done before. The world music artists live in is arguably corrupt as they go through complex steps to get their music heard and fight with treacherous TikTok and audio streaming algorithms to achieve virality and make money. Not everyone is a social media artist and minimizing the value of art to a price-per-stream is outdated, leaving a long tail of creators stru...

I have always been fascinated by the question of what makes certain content truly valuable and shareable, and I have spent a lot of time thinking about what motivates people to collect and how to create content that speaks to them on a deeper level.
That's why I'm excited to introduce Mint Season 7 to the world.
The next 20 episodes will span three months and focus on every aspect of "Creating Content Worth Collecting," a tagline that I hope will inspire more creators to shift their focus from algorithmic virality to creating content of collectible quality.
Claim Season 7’s free subscriber collectible to get notified when new episodes drop.
We’ll highlight various forms of tokenized media like music NFTs, podcast NFTs, writing NFTs, film NFTs, video NFTs, and crypto art, and answer questions like:
What does it take to create content worth collecting?
What are the links between viral distribution and onchain monetization via collection?
How can content creators use tokenized media and NFTs to increase value and strengthen relationships with their audience?
How will DeFi and tokenized media intersect and develop in the future?
What are the main challenges for crypto-native content creators and tokenized media projects and how will they be addressed?
How will decentralization change content creation and consumption in the web3 world?
Will traditional media adapt to or be replaced by decentralized organizations in the web3 landscape?
What challenges and opportunities will the web3 media industry face as it grows and how can they be addressed?
How will the user experience of web3 media differ from traditional web media and how will this affect content consumption?
I hope that by exploring this topic in-depth, we can help more creators understand what makes content valuable to collect and how to create content worth collecting that resonates with their audience.
This season, listeners will hear from a variety of high-profile creators, savvy collectors, and ambitious founders on their strategies for producing collectible content.
We’ll hear from:
Farokh | Founder of Rug Radio.
Robin Schmidt | Founder of BasedAF.
Zack Guzman | Host of Coinage Media.
Alice Ma | Co-Founder of Mad Realties.
Jacob Horne | Co-Founder of Zora Protocol.
Chase Chapman | Host of the OthersidePod.
Diana Chen | Host of Rehash Podcast.
Aidan Musnitzky | Founder of Spinamp.
Christina Beltramini | Head of Growth at The Aave Companies (Lens Protocol).
0xLucas | Head of Web3 at Bankless.

Peter Saputo | Music NFT Artist.
Roberto Nickson | Founder of Metav3rse.

TK the Legend | Music NFT Artist.
BlockchainBrett | Partner at Palm Tree Crew.
I'm showcasing Lens Protocol and Bello.lol this season, who's collected the podcast’s soulbound NFTs, granting them promotional utility throughout the season.
I also thank Cointelegraph and CryptoSlate, this season's media partners.
The season is available to enjoy across all video and audio streaming platforms and new social apps built on Lens Protocol, such as Lenstube and Lensterxyz.
I'm excited to focus more of my efforts on this mindset shift. One of the reasons I launch new seasons with accompanying themes is to get answers to my personal questions and curate the right people to provide insight on the topic.
That’s how I organized Mint Season 1 and how I will continue to lead future seasons to come.
