Last Wednesday, Sound unveiled the Sound Protocol, a permissionless, open-source, modular smart contract framework for musicians and creators.

Its main features are:Permissionless base layer Previously, artists needed a signed message provided by Sound to sell their music. With the new Protocol, artists can f...
