Fountain Rewind is here ✨

In 2024, creators on Fountain embraced open distribution via RSS, open payments via Lightning and open social via Nostr.

Listeners sent a total of 2 BTC to creators this year. That's equivalent to $127,900 based on daily prices but would be worth nearly 50% more today.

You streamed 63 million sats and sent 40,000 boosts, with an average boost value of 3,380 sats (around $3.20).

Let's see who picked up the top awards in 2024...

MOST SUPPORTED SHOW: RABBIT HOLE RECAP nostr:npub10uthwp4ddc9w5adfuv69m8la4enkwma07fymuetmt93htcww6wgs55xdlq

RHR has quickly become one of the most-loved shows among Fountain listeners (affectionately known as ‘freaks’). In 2022 they were #3, in 2023 they were #2, and in 2024 they finally claimed the #1 spot. Congratulations, nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy and nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx.

SHOW WITH MOST SUPPORTERS: MR OBNOXIOUS nostr:npub14mcddvsjsflnhgw7vxykz0ndfqj0rq04v7cjq5nnc95ftld0pv3shcfrlx

In 2024, What Bitcoin Did came to an end to make way for Mr Obnoxious. Peter McCormack announced that nostr:npub16le69k9hwapnjfhz89wnzkvf96z8n6r34qqwgq0sglas3tgh7v4sp9ffxj would be the new custodian - much to the relief of the 800 listeners who supported the show this year.

MOST SUPPORTED EPISODE: LINUX UNPLUGGED | 545: 3,062 DAYS LATER nostr:npub1awyzkzaktxlhyg6syzst3pxy5lvp0c908yphz4ekk9rp3zcapp5qxn79n4

One of three popular shows about open-source, security and privacy from Jupiter Broadcasting to make the top 40. Makes sense once you know that listeners boost their zip code (pricey if you live in Alaska).

MOST SUPPORTED ARTIST: AINSLEY COSTELLO nostr:npub13qrrw2h4z52m7jh0spefrwtysl4psfkfv6j4j672se5hkhvtyw7qu0almy

Ainsley's music is the pop soundtrack of the next generation. Since “Cherry On Top" became the first track to hit 1 million sats last year, she has inspired countless artists to follow her path, becoming the face of this new movement.

ARTIST WITH MOST SUPPORTERS: MAN LIKE KWEKS nostr:npub1fnn2h0tgm2mwnl0kar5ez25wztum2w0q0rrrf326n0ljn999znwsqf4xnx

When Kweks isn't working his 9 to 5, he's making beats from his bedroom in Tanzania. He may have earned just $25.68 from music royalties, but since first publishing his music on nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg he’s earned 2.3 million sats (over $2,000).

MOST SUPPORTED TRACK: ABI MUIR | STOCKHOLM

Born in Scotland, residing in Australia, Abi’s goosebump-inducing vocals and heartfelt lyrics define her songwriting. In Stockholm she explores a darker side to her music that crosses into alt-rock, topped with Muir's sultry vocals.
