You are correct , but it is not me - I don't own the company- the Founders do. I just happen to be optimistic it will go up in value. Etherium is like Silver. Regular Bitcoin is like Gold.  There is a big risk , just like all Stocks on the Markets... Bitcoin stocks are traded on the NYSE... Bitcoin is worth about 11 grand each coin at the moment. Did you know some folks are millionaires now ?

However we got to "invest or die" as they say .... Spotify makes $669 Million a month and pays musicians nothing. Historically, music makers have always been ripped off. At least Musicoin is transparent because of Blockchain technology and cannot be tampered with.

All investments are vunerable. Remember the real estate crash in L.A. ? The top 1% will crush anything they wish to and "sell short" and make billions. Currently Wixen Publishing in Santa Monica are suing Apple, Tidal, Spotify, and others for 1.6 Billion dollars ... you'd rather trust them crooks in L.A. , SF Bay Area , and NYC and Sweden ? Those companies are proven to be crooks. Or would you like to trust something that shows promise of being transparent with the our earnings ?  You have make up your own mind. Musicoin is not exclusive for your placements and earnings - wherever you want to put your material is like the Wild West - it is wide open.  - JW

Your calling it "mining the currency" but really it is betting that it will go up in value with the stocks...am I right? I believe it is based on emotions and belief of what it will do - the stock market rides on emotions...

Regarding my statement "Wherever you want to put your material is like the Wild West - it is wide open." Well JP, You are not uploading songs to the Musicoin site and signing an Exclusivity Contract with Musicoin's founders. You can still place your music on Apple, Spotify, Tidal, and Indie Radio and College Radio, and make vinyl albums if you wish, and/or give away CD's as part of your concert ticket price (like Prince did)  and sell them Albums you own the rights to right out of your living room. And that's what I meant...
