VereNFT is pleased to announce the launch of Aficionados NFT marketplace created for breakthrough music talent on 27 June. It aims to help musicians earn revenue, build up their fan base, and finance future tours or live gigs as they seek to ride out the cost-of-living crisis. It will also help to address the issue of unequal revenue distribution in the music and other creative industries using innovative blockchain technology.

A number of prominent and emerging artists are joining, including:

  • Skinny Living — a British soul-rock band who have recently become independent following years of being signed with prominent labels
  • Peter Bence — a Guinness World Record holding pianist with over a million YouTube subscribers and over one billion streams of his music and videos
  • The Trouble Notes — a multi-nationality, multi-instrumentalist busking group with tens of thousands of active followers across streaming platforms and social media
  • Darrell Craig Harris — sports photographer for TopRank Boxing and LA Raiders — Sports Illustrated
  • Carne Griffiths — foremost contemporary British artist

Moreover, Aficionados will be working with digital social media giants Music Crowns, which has 5 million followers who have supported, championed and discovered unsigned, independent and breakthrough music artists over the past 12 years, including Lewis Capaldi, Freya Ridings, Callum Scott, Tash Sultana and Jessie Reyez.

Through a partnership with whitelabel NFT marketplace provider VereNFT, Aficionados NFT marketplace is green and scalable. NFTs can be minted at a cost of £0.05 at 0.02KwH each with high scalability and low latency. (To put that in perspective, you would have to mint more than 15 NFTs to boil a small standard kettle.)

By minting NFTs of videos, photos, audio and even physical items or events, artists can monetise their work and engage their fans without the middleman. They also stand to earn a percentage of royalties each time their NFTs are sold on.

Alan Vey, Co-Founder and Chairman, VereNFT, says: “NFTs are more than the latest technology craze — they can be a real force for good. While most of the discussion around this emerging tech centres around pixel artwork and virtual real-estate we are still only scratching the surface of the true potential of NFTs. With Aficionados, this creative application will help to improve equality for creatives, facilitate closer relationships between artists and their fans, and support the recovery of the music industry in the wake of a tough few years. We’re thrilled to be part of that revolution and look forward to seeing the full impact of the project as it grows.”
