Musicoin Project is looking for Devs!

Two years ago, I wrote this article about Musicoin called Musicoin: From the Ashes of the Phoenix! Take the time to read this article to put yourself in the previous context, if you feel it.

After this first phase of Swap to a Token based on the Ethereum blockchain and the ERC20 protocol, during which the majority of the community and Musicoin holders were left on the side of the road, for lack of information on social media or even by emailing to inform them, a second swap has been decided. Well.. What other option? If it wasn't to alienate the entire Musicoin community, between 8000 and 10000 musicians, already, from memory. Tens and tens of thousands of tracks. This is not a negligible base!

Let's remember that Musicoin was the first music streaming site based on the blockchain. From the launch of the project, musicians received their royalties in Musicoin ($MUSIC) instantly each time one of their tracks was played. These funds were fed by mining. A percentage of the Musicoin mined was dedicated to this fund and fed what was called the UBI.

As it was necessary to have a blockchain that does not generate expensive fees for each transaction. Basically every time a track is played. The Musicoin team decided to port the project to the Skale Network and prepare the second Swap. Here we are around the first quarter of the year 2021. This is where things started to get complicated.

This playlist was built by a long time member of ReadCash. It gives a good overview of the music I compose.

To this day, January 09, 2023, still nothing concrete. Two years full of promises of Skale port, of work on the project, of hope (false hope?) to the whole community. Or rather what is left of it. And still nothing! Not a shadow of a functional online site, let alone a visible port to Skale. Not even a screenshot of anything related. In short, still nothing on the horizon! So forget a Token Swap too! Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that nothing has been done, or that nothing has been tried. But...

Reality brings us back to earth quickly. For a project of this magnitude, you need blockchain specialists, high-level coders. People who are able to port a project based on an ERC20 token to the Skale blockchain. With all the problems that will have to be solved at all levels.

At the beginning of January I decided to call the team members, to tell them my opinion about the project, and that it was high time to ask for help, to look for worthy developers. That despite the good faith and efforts, we were at the wall with nothing.

I share here the discussion as it is a public one on Musicoin Telegram Channel. It's me talking with Ben Gyles, the Dev in charge of the project. A community driven one now. Everyone can bring some help!

The purpose of my request was to make people aware of the need to find qualified people to help bring this project to fruition, to help in this search, to promote it. Because who knows, every day we meet people from all walks of life. A developer who could help in some way could be hiding here, or there.

It looks like they understood the necessity to move forward. :0)

Here is the last report of their monthly (previously weekly) meeting: https://www.publish0x.com/musicoin-radio/musicoin-january-2022-meeting-topics-xrgeopg

If you think you can help one way or another in this Project, feel free to plug over the Musicoin Telegram Channel, and ask for more details, etc. Tell them how you can help. I think it worth it!

Also.. and why not. Imagine porting Musicoin to a Bitcoin Cash token.. Could it be possible? As an alternative? Some skilled people here to have a idea about it?

See you soon, Bitcoin Cash Space Rockers! :0)
