What makes Muzika Network outstanding from other music ICOs?

Music related ICO is nothing new to crypto currency world nowadays, along with the popularization of blockchain technology. There were some early adoption like Voise or Music Coin, some born later such as Dench Music or Moose Coin and some are even in ICO stage, for instance Bitsong and Muzika Network. Although not all of them are successful but they have one thing in common: filling the gap between artist and audience using blockchain technology. Among these projects, Muzika Network stands out and is deemed the most promising. Here’s why...

Muzika Network is a Korea-based project

Along with Japan, China and US, Korea is one of the biggest crypto currency communities in the world. They have a platform coin for their own called ICON (ICX) to compete against giants like ETH or NEO. Besides, Korea is also a leading countries in the world’s music industry. “K-pop” – which is the short form of Korean Pop, has proven its popularity and is worldwide known for “Gangnam style” MV on Youtube or recent BTS phenomenal. Combining these two specialty, Muzika Network aims to create a platform where artists and audiences are directly connected and fair treated, unlike the conventional music industry which mainly depends on third party agencies. This is not an innovation concept but it perfectly makes sense in a country like South Korea.

Young, excellent founders with real running product

Unlike many other projects which are lack of practicality, Muzika is based on a real running business: Mapiacompany. Mapiacompany was founded in 2015 by a young talented trio: CEO Inseo Chung, CTO Sangmin Heo and COO Jangwon Lee.

The collaboration with Ontology also gives Muzika an edge in terms of technology infrastructure and ecosystem interoperability.
