Stage revolutionizes the music industry by merging Idol-style addictive music competitions with SocialFi, allowing fans to impact artists' success and earn Real World Assets (RWAs) in return, gaining tangible stakes in their careers. This creates a dynamic community where every interaction enriches both the fan and the artist's journey.

As the first platform to embrace AI music, Stage introduces AI music competitions and on-chain tools, enabling anyone to tokenize music samples, melodies, beats, and vocals, pioneering a new era of interactive and investment-driven music engagement.

Developed by AI and industry pros (incl. blockchain.com), Stage aims to redefine the stardom industry, with 80% user engagement from the start before public launch. We're targeting 500K users in the first three months, backed by major KOL influencers, top-tier TGE partners, a BMG records deal and a solid community.

Highlights:

• Strong Reach: 13M+ followers via signed ambassador deals (Tohi, Jerry Heil and Gola).
• Pre-Launch Success: 200+ artists and 43k users already on our iOS app before the official mainstream launch.
• KOLs invested in Stage:
• CryptoRand (twitter.com/crypto_rand)
• ThatMartiniGuy (youtube.com/@ThatMartiniGuy/)
• Incrypted (https://incrypted.com/about/)
• AltCryptoGems(https://twitter.com/altcryptogems)
• Axel Blaze (https://twitter.com/axel_bitblaze69) and 300+ others.
• Artist-Friendly: 60% profits to artists; BMG partnership.
• Expert Branding: designed by Spotify's former Brand Design Director.
• Solid Funding: $2.4M raised, from VCs such as Cogitent Ventures, RR2 Capital, Moonrock Capital, Synapse Network and individuals such as Heath Wells, cofounder of NuOrder (recently acquired by Lightspeed for $425M).
• Diverse Revenue: on-chain votes & transactions, digital collectibles, in-app purchases and potentially large scale publishing deal commissions - both with token buy-back & burn.

Vision:

Become the premier platform democratizing talent discovery through Gen-Z fan-driven engagement and rewards.

Music is just the beginning; our vision is to evolve into the ultimate SocialFi hub, nurturing talents across football, acting, comedy, dance, and beyond.
