Earn from music battles, not streams: WaveWarz

Hurricane Ike, founder of WaveWarz, on a new way for musicians to get paid: head-to-head music battles where people buy and sell on the competing tracks like stocks, and the artist earns one percent of every trade on their side - engagement, not streams. One artist earned about 0.5 SOL in minutes of a single battle. He covers the live chart scoring that makes a battle as fun to watch as it is to hear, the nightly 8:30pm EST quick-battle queue, and community battles in any format (music, roast, cooking) with automated payouts straight to artist wallets. Artists keep their masters, IP, and audience. 500+ SOL in volume, 40+ artists, built on Solana.
