Why you will Tokenise Yourself on the Blockchain

Tokenisation of people is coming

If you are an musician/creative/athlete why wouldn’t you?

If you are a smaller up and coming artist, the reward is more security now by realising some of your future worth today. Obviously your future earnings might be higher/lower than what you sell the token for, but that is the risk. You forego some portion of future earning for upfront capital now, in many ways it is a hedge against not becoming a household name. No matter how much you believe in yourself, that’s just smart economics.

If you are a larger artist, it becomes a way for you to sell some of your past success while establishing a new economic model to drive financial growth.

Coin holders become a core group of supporters, who are rewarded with the % of profits they own, but also early release information, guaranteed tickets to concerts and things only for them. That provides significant benefit to owners over what is currently available. Not only would that attract speculative investors, but it would attract fans who love specific artists. The potential this breeds is a highly liquid market, where the value has the opportunity to fluctuate. At this point, an artist could decide to sell more tokens, realising future profits now…
