Where is this whole thing going and what are we trying to do with value for value? How does live music fit in? How can independent artists get a piece of V4V? 

For episode 4 of Radio Detox, I’m talking with OpenMike, founder of Tunestr.io. This podcast features (mostly) Phantom Power Music artists and OpenMike has chosen for his guest split to go to Phantom Power Media to support what they’re doing in the Valueverse with independent artists. 

In this episode, we talk about how OpenMike started Tunestr—and why. He also shares his Bitcoin story. You’ll hear what it’s like to work in the traditional music business while operating Tunestr in the Valueverse. He shares what it was like to compete with the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville with Bands at Bitcoin. Since he’s worked with the bands on this podcast, you’ll also hear his insight into what these performers are like and why we love their music. 

What happens when you bring together two sober Bitcoiners who love music & cats? Lots of fun stories and predictions on where the world of V4V, Nostr, and Bitcoin are headed. 🚀
