Spins Network is a coordination protocol that transforms passive music listening into collective action. By aggregating streaming data and aligning listener behavior toward higher-paying platforms, we maximize per-stream value for artists—then settle everything transparently on Polygon.
Three interconnected layers work together to aggregate data, coordinate behavior, and settle payments.
Connect your streaming accounts via secure OAuth. We aggregate play history from Spotify, TIDAL, Apple Music, and more into a unified data model using ISRC-based track normalization.
The heart of Spins Network. We calculate network-wide coordination using principles from synchronization physics, measuring how aligned the community's streaming behavior is toward higher-paying platforms.
Built on Polygon PoS for fast finality and near-zero transaction costs. Perfect for micropayments—every stream can trigger a payment without eating into artist earnings.
Music streaming generates millions of micro-transactions. We needed a blockchain that could handle the volume without eating into artist earnings.
Near-instant settlement for every stream
Micropayments without the micro-fees
Scale to millions of concurrent users
Reliable infrastructure for real payments
Per-stream royalty rates vary dramatically across platforms. TIDAL pays artists roughly $0.0128 per stream while Spotify pays around $0.004—a 3x difference. Yet listeners have no mechanism to coordinate their behavior to maximize artist compensation.
Spins Network measures collective coordination using an "order parameter"—a value from 0 to 1 that shows how synchronized the network is. When listeners coordinate their streaming toward higher-paying platforms, the order parameter rises, and so does artist revenue.
