every little bit counts. for example, we have a value for value creator that's rocking out on nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg and i feel that he deserves more followers and more people listening to his music. im going to keep shilling his work because i truly enjoy his music. keep kicking ass nostr:npub16c94ez2d7qtrexemrtzw387ff0akmarnm08l3sp46uul865tedvsjtt64t 🔥

I believe it's more zaps, or total sats received. At least that's how it used to be. There were some complaints that it could be gamed.

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

yeah you can very easily pay yourself and withdraw and just repeat that alot.

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

what makes a song move up the chats more on nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg more listens or more zaps?

There’s no right answer, it comes down to the individual and what they think it’s worth. If you’re not getting enough from spotify(no surprise), than you can move your music to Apple, who tends to pay artists a bit more. If you still don’t think you’re making enough, look into one of the many independent platforms and see if you can make what you feel you deserve, like Tidal.

It should also be noted that you can’t use any past numbers as a metric, since technology has vastly changed how we can connect to the artists we enjoy. In other words, there is no physical product to account for so you can’t use numbers from sold CD’s, tapes or records as a metric.

also straight earning your royalties in a volatile asset that has the potential to go up a lot.

it's hard to put a value on music these day with such a vast accumulation of music over time and the advances is recording technology and ease.

Yeah when you say it like, wow. I did a book once and it had quarterly royalty payments which we're kinda annoying.

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

it's quarterly and 3 months behind haha

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

Is there an e-commerce/ shopifty client on nostr / lightning??

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

how much should a music artist get paid for 1,000,000 streams? It's currently around $4000 AUD.

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

On traditional music streaming platforms it take 3 months for your royalties to arrive in your account and then there's a annoying withdrawal process. Nostr takes about 15 seconds hahhaha

Bullet Train and Real Me are my most recent songs. All the other where released 2 or 3 years ago. These last two songs are my first steps back into recording some music after a long year of travelling and working in a few cool places around the world. So if has been a while since I've had some fresh tunes to listen too.

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

It's gonna be a crazy world when people start going mega viral on Nostr and literally become millionaires infront of peoples eyes. And it's so transparent.

Dunno if you run your own node or have a wallet outside the WL platform but you can make an extra 10% by self-hosting and your music will still be featured on all Podcasting 2.0 platforms. ;) Just gotta get comfy with or copy-paste the .xml RSS feed.

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

I will definitely look into this more

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

I recon Nortr gives me he highest probability to get nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m to here my music.

I think a lot about a Nostr version of Napster. Pretty much napster that can't be taken down. But now you can Zap for value as well as have verified Profiles.

9x wow! That's awesome. How was your revenue before, per listen? Steady? Or are things just now starting to take off with this 9x Wavlake rocket?

My Friend Jimi 1y ago

just comparing streams. I still get more streams on Spotify but only make $1 per 250 streams. Where on wavlake I got around 8000 Sats with around 250 listens, so 8/9 times more.
