Euterpe addresses several specific needs and challenges within the OSS and tech ecosystem, particularly in the music industry and decentralized finance:  Funding Access for Artists: Traditional funding mechanisms in the music industry are often restrictive and biased towards well-established artists. Euterpe democratizes this process by allowing artists to generate funding directly from fans through the issuance of personal cryptocurrencies, removing gatekeepers and leveling the playing field. Fan Engagement and Rewards: Current platforms offer limited engagement options for fans. Euterpe enhances fan involvement by enabling them to invest in artists as tradable cryptocurrencies, directly linking their support with artists' success, and providing rewards and royalties through NFTs. Fairness in Artist Discovery: Many platforms have biased artist discovery processes influenced by commercial interests. Euterpe’s decentralized AI, Plumes, ensures a fair and unbiased mechanism that promotes equal visibility for all artists, helping independent and emerging artists gain recognition without preferential treatment. Integration of Advanced Technologies: By incorporating blockchain for secure transactions and legal agreements, Euterpe introduces transparency and security in interactions, fostering trust and broader adoption of decentralized systems in the music industry.
