Thank you. Yes, this project is designed to help guitar players who create quality music and music related content earn money. Thanks for your support, we hope it will.

Thank you CryptoNext, that's great news.

Good project, is this concept of music and dedicated to the guitar? whatever it is hopefully in the future can run smoothly and many supporters

great! traditional guitar players are not that so many nowadays. this might revive the passion of others who used to play guitar.

We're currently focusing on features and custom e-blasts in high-profile guitar related media for the European and American markets. We've already been featured on Guitar Interactive Magazine. BitChord is also to be featured in a few upcoming high-profile crypto podcasts. We understand that this is a competitive field and we are committed to bringing the project to the attention of its target investor audience.

Hi there. Thank you for your question. I'm sure that in 1876, when Alexander Graham Bell was telling people that they would be able to talk to each other without ever leaving their houses, to some people this may have sounded ridiculous. But look how that worked out.

One of the reasons why today a single Bitcoin is worth thousands of dollars is because it's a payment method, a payment system that's OUTSIDE the bounds of traditional banks and "tried and true" money transfer methods of the financial world. Those are under strict control that benefits the "key holders" of those systems.

The current systems that guitar players use do NOT benefit them. And that makes perfect sense because they were NOT designed to benefit anyone else but the platform itself. Look at YouTube earning millions by slapping targeted adds to people's original content and (in best case scenarios) paying them pennies. How about the well known "guitar lessons" platforms selling guitar player's hard work (their original content) to those same guitar players' followers and keeping 80-90% of the profit? How nice is that? Well it is, but not for the players. One of the many reasons this keeps on happening is because those platforms do NOT reveal the exact numbers - sales, percentages, fees etc. They don't want to. If that happens it's quite possible that everyone (buyers included) may see those systems for what they are - cash machines making money on the sweat&tears of guitarists who have toiled for many years, mastering a very difficult instrument while covering the ongoing cost out of their own pocket.

Blockchain provides for FULL TRANSPARENCY of all sales. All BitChord sales will be public information on the Ethereum blockchain. BitChord takes NO FEES and NO PERCENTAGES out of the guitar player's content price. Guitar players keep 100% themselves. Further guitarists would be able to earn money on the platform in different ways:

• 1. For uploading approved content the platform will automatically award you some of our BitChord tokens (BCD) which are already available to purchase.
• 2. Other users may buy your content.
• 3. Other users may decide to tip you as a "thumbs up".
• 4. BitChord takes NO fees from guitar players for hosting, advertising, selling and distributing their content. Guitar players always keep 100% of their product sale price.
• 5. Once we have developed viable advertising partnerships and strategic alliances with companies trying to market their products and services to the BitChord audience - guitar players hosting their original content on the platform will receive a share of the advertising revenue.

That's right - that's PASSIVE income (income you don't have to work for) for life. The amount different players earn will vary depending on many factors, but even if it's $20 a month - imagine no longer having to pay for your mobile service? That would be nice, wouldn't it?

Considering that companies like CryptoKitties were able to raise $12 million dollars to bring collectable kitties to the Blockchain - we believe that a platform aimed at helping real people battle the modern day challenges of playing guitar while trying to stay alive and pay your bills - should get at least some support.

exciting project, as the first decentralized video distribution network that connects guitar players, advertisers, and viewers on a single platform. what strategy does the team use to attract investors? as it sees the increasingly high ICO market competition and many competitors

Hi there. The information about our team has been posted publicly on our website since day one. Just go to https://bitchord.io/ and click on "Meet The Team". Under each person's name and role on the team there's a link to their personal LinkedIn profile.   (see screenshot)

wow! this is a very cool project!
I like listen play the guitar.
This is a very cool project, and I am very curious about how it will evolve.
I will follow this project.

Interesting project. this is very helpful musicians especially guitarists. but here i do not see your team. where i can see?

It sounds a bit ridiculously decentralized platform for guitar players, what can blockchain do and how will it improve something in the guitar community? How will you help guitarists make money through your platform?

Thank you. We think so too. Freelance guitarists spend a lot of time and money on developing their craft. Guitar lessons with professional players, guitars, pedals/processors, amplification, strings, instrument setups and repair, audio recording hardware/software and other misc. equipment. The list can go on and on. Yet they're expected to play free gigs or as they put it in ABC's Nashville - "playing for cold pizza and warm beer". The biggest issue for most players is that while they're honing their craft they have to keep working at some low-paying job just to pay the bills leaving them stressed and unhappy. Which makes it even more difficult to persevere with improving their craft up to the point where they're "undeniably good". But that takes years. And many don't ever make it that far, pressured by a harsh financial situation, family and friends nagging them to get "a good job" instead etc. There are so many talented guitarists who were never given the opportunity to develop their skills and shine. It's sad really.

We believe that BitChord can change that. No other platform is aimed at helping guitarists earn. Even if it's not thousands of dollars a month - to quote a popular British supermarket chain - "Every little bit helps".

But yes, you're right - first they must learn about BitChord and the possibilities it offers - so feel free to share our website and this thread with friends who may benefit from learning about BitChord.

interesting project. these will help a lot the freelancer guitarists. there are so many guitarists who are playing sometimes for free just to be heard. but with this platform, it will be a great help for them. only if they are aware with this BITCHORD blockchain.

Excellent question. On BitChord's platform great guitar players will be able to earn money by creating and submitting quality guitar related content - this may be a video performance, video lessons, an educational video course, an educational book in .pdf, a backing track, a quality transcription of popular (or some of their original) tracks in Guitar Pro. The main criteria will be "usefulness to others". After your original content is approved and submitted you would be able to earn money in different ways:

• 1. The platform will award you some of our BitChord tokens (BCD) which are already available to purchase.
• 2. Other users may buy your content.
• 3. Other users may decide to tip you as a "thumbs up".
• 4. BitChord takes NO fees from guitar players for hosting, advertising, selling and distributing their content. Guitar players always keep 100% of their product sale price.
• 5. Once we have developed viable advertising partnerships and strategic alliances with companies trying to market their products and services to the BitChord audience - guitar players hosting their original content on the platform will receive a share of the advertising revenue.

That's right - that's PASSIVE income (income you don't have to work for) for life. The amount different players earn will vary depending on many factors, but even if it's $20 a month - imagine no longer having to pay for your mobile service? That would be nice, wouldn't it?

Absolutely. That's why we were just featured on Guitar Interactive Magazine's website and YouTube channel. More features in guitar media to follow.

Interesting project. 'Get paid to play guitar' but can you explain more about this word ? how to you pay me ? 

but guitar players should know how to use cryptocurrencies first. also, they need to know that this exists right?

We agree. Something similar is already happening on YouTube - however the downside is - guitar players are doing it for free and there are tons of low-quality content that is not filtered in any way. The only one making any money in this situation is YouTube. Guitar players are just submitting their content for the "exposure". With thousands of guitar related clips being uploaded every day - the so called "exposure" is quite limited. Also platform users (aspiring guitarists) who want to learn how to play, have a very hard time learning in a vortex of never-ending content with often poor educational or production quality. That may certainly feel overwhelming to new players. How are they supposed to know what is good and what isn't if they're just starting out?

Our efforts at this time are targeted at bringing the idea to forward-thinking people who can notice the potential of the platform and more importantly the opportunity to create wealth for themselves as an investor in the project. Once the platform is developed and fully functioning guitar players will come to earn, to learn, to be a part of a fundamentally new type of a guitar community. You don't have to be a guitar player or even a music lover for that matter to benefit financially from investing early in the platform.
