Great discussion guys. Thanks for the shoutout. I'm glad that you are all poking and prodding and asking the questions that will help get new music out there.
We all have our roles and I've found immense satisfaction in onboarding new bands into the valueverse and will keep on doing that providing that people keep listening, boosting and sending the artists messages. 👌

Into the Valueverse – The UK’s First Bitcoin-Powered Music Gig ft Longy, Joe Martin & Nathan Abbott
On Friday, 23rd May 2025, history was made at The Fickle Pickle Club in Westcliff-on-Sea.
Into the Valueverse became the UK’s first-ever Bitcoin-powered live music event, blending raw independent talent with the revolutionary value-for-value model.
🎤 Featuring:
@Longy – Southend rebel with electrifying punk-folk fire
@Joe Martin – Americana storyteller with soul
#Nathan Abbott – Bluesy Essex heart with a rock edge
💡 What made it unique:
Fans in the room — and around the world — could send boosts and zaps (instant Bitcoin micropayments) directly to the artists while they played, thanks to Podcasting 2.0 apps and NOSTR Live. The stream included value time splits, so sats flowed seamlessly to whichever artist was on stage.
💰 Result: Together, we raised 0.0045 BTC (~£375) for the artists on the night.
🙏 Massive thanks to the legends who made it happen:
Azte.co • Fountain.fm • @raj • @earth21 • @Micky from BTC Essex • Joe Lamb • The Fickle Pickle Club
⚡️ Want to support future shows?
Download the @Fountain app, grab some sats via Azte.co and join the value-for-value revolution.
📍 Venue: The Fickle Pickle Club, Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex
📆 Date: 23rd May 2025

Released on: 10/08/25

To access the valueverse download a modern podcast app such as Fountain.fm or listen in via your browser using lnbeats.com or curiocaster
The valueverse is where artists publish their music to the Bitcoin layer of the internet, allowing fans and listeners to send “boosts” (small Bitcoin payments) directly to them. It’s music in its purest form: peer-to-peer, value-for-value. Artists receive almost all of the value, with no middlemen — just music, connection, and freedom.

We are lucky over here in music. Because While others are busy seeking political approval and regulatory clarity, we simply get on with using the tools that Bitcoin has given us to navigate around the current system, all without needing anyone's permission."

4 tracks are in the v4v top 40 chart from our show "Into the valueverse"
Ty so much for your support let's keep it going!
This was one of my favourites from the night!
Let's boost it to get it in the top 40 too. "Sweet Sunshine" by Nathan Abbott.
