πŸ—ΊοΈRoadmap Q1 2023

In July 2022, we launched Sinfonia in Mainnet minting and launching 14 FanTokens, including artists, record labels, and music mags, giving fans for the first time the opportunity to buy, sell, or perform yield farming operations with FanTokens related to the music industry.

We also promised that by the end of the year we would also work hard to integrate two new features as are NFT and the Media Player, and as evidenced by the public testnet we launched at the end of November 2022, we have kept our promise.

In fact, in the testnet you can already interact with the minting functions of NFTs, as well as listen to tracks or podcasts related to them or watch videos.

Now, though, the time has come to bring these new features into production, and so the roadmap for Q1 2023 that we have laid out for Sinfonia is as follows:

Sinfonia Docs Online - Live

This is the documentation you're exploring in this moment. Keep in mind it is still an Alpha version and we're updating it daily.

Global Ambassador Program - January '23

An ambassador program is a marketing strategy used by companies or projects to promote their products or services through a network of individuals, known as ambassadors. These ambassadors are typically customers, fans or influencers of the company who are willing to promote the brand to their own networks. The program typically includes incentives, commissions, or exclusive access to products or events in exchange for their participation. The goal of an ambassador program is to increase brand awareness and sales through word-of-mouth marketing and social proof. This program can be a great way for a company to reach new audiences, and for the ambassadors to earn rewards for promoting the brand they already love.

New Artists Onboard - The whole quarter

Sinfonia's artist onboarding program is a set of steps or procedures that we use to onboard new artists and help them understand how to use the platform and take advantage of its services. The program is designed to make it easy for artists to get started with the platform and understand how to use it to promote their work and connect with fans.

The steps in an artist onboarding program can vary, but generally include:

- Wallet Generation: The first step is for the artist to generate a BitSong wallet. - Profile setup: The artist will be prompted to provide information about themselves, such as their name, bio, and links to their social media profiles. - Content upload (NFT): Artists will be able to upload their music, videos, images, and other content to the platform. - Tools and features: The platform will provide the artist with tools and features to help them promote their work and connect with fans, such as analytics, marketing, and fan engagement tools. - Support and guidance: The platform will provide support and guidance to the artist, such as tutorials, FAQs, and customer support, to help them make the most of the platform.

The artist onboarding program is an important aspect of Sinfonia's artist engagement strategy, as it helps artists to understand the platform and how to use it to their advantage, and it makes them more likely to stay active and engaged with the fans.

NFT MUSIC CONTEST - Registrations to open in January '23

An NFT Music Contest is a competition that is centered around the use of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) in the music industry. The contest typically invites music artists, producers, and composers to submit their work in the form of NFTs to be judged by a panel of industry experts.

An NFT Music Contest can be a great way to showcase the potential of NFTs in the music industry and to encourage artists to experiment with the technology. Additionally, it can also help to bring more visibility to the contestants and their work. It can also be used as a way for music platforms to promote the use of NFTs and to increase the adoption of this new technology within the music industry.

Convert Podcast to NFT - Upgrade in January '23

Converting a podcast to an NFT (non-fungible token) refers to the process of creating a unique digital asset that represents ownership or access to a specific podcast episode or series. This is done by creating a token on the BitSong's Blockchain, and linking it to the podcast episode or series.

The process of converting a podcast to an NFT typically includes the following steps:

  • Tokenization: The podcast episode or series is tokenized, meaning that a unique token is created on the blockchain to represent it.

  • Encoding the podcast: The podcast file is encoded, meaning that it is turned into a format that can be embedded in the NFT.

  • Creating the NFT: The token and encoded podcast are then combined to create the NFT, which can be minted, bought, sold and traded on various NFT marketplaces.

  • Listing: The NFT is then listed on NFT marketplaces, where potential buyers can view and purchase it.

  • Ownership: Once an NFT is purchased, the buyer becomes the owner of the unique digital asset and can access the podcast episode or series.

Converting a podcast to an NFT allows creators to monetize their content, and to give fans a unique way to own and access their podcasts. Additionally, it allows creators to track the performance of their podcasts, and to create a new way of engaging with their listeners, by offering exclusive and limited access to their content. It also allows for easy tracking of the revenue generated from the podcast, and for the creators to have a direct relationship with their audience.

The Sinfonia's FanToken Request Form is an online form that allows musicians, bands, record labels, and other music-related entities to apply for the creation of their own FanToken on the Sinfonia platform.

  • Description of the FanToken, including its purpose and intended use

  • Information about the team behind the FanToken

  • Financial information, such as projected budget and funding sources

  • Marketing and engagement plan for the FanToken

  • Other relevant information

The FanToken Request Form is an important tool for the Sinfonia platform, as it allows the platform to evaluate the potential of each applicant, and to determine whether the FanToken is a good fit for the platform. Once the form is submitted, the Sinfonia team will review the application, and if approved, will work with the applicants to create the FanToken and list it on the platform.

The FanToken Request Form is a key step in the process of creating a FanToken, and it is an important tool for artists, bands, record labels, and other music-related entities to connect with their fans and to raise funds for their projects. It also allows the Sinfonia platform to onboard more artists, bands, and labels, and to expand its offerings.

Trading Competition - February '23

A FanToken and NFTs Trading Competition on Sinfonia is a competition where users can trade Fan Tokens and NFTs, which represent fan-controlled assets of a specific artist, club, label or other music industry's entity. In this competition, users can buy and sell Fan Tokens and NFTs in a simulated trading environment, and the users with the highest returns at the end of the competition are the winners. This competition allows fans to show their support for their favorite team while also allowing them to participate in the growing world of NFT/FanTokens trading.

When gauges on Sinfonia are renewed, it typically means that the platform is updating its parameters for determining liquidity mining rewards. These gauges are typically used to measure how much liquidity a user has provided to the exchange, and can include metrics such as the total value locked (TVL) in a liquidity pool, the number of trades executed, or the time a user has provided liquidity.

Renewing these gauges can also mean that the platform is updating its reward structure for liquidity providers, for example by increasing or decreasing the amount of rewards for certain metrics, or by adding new metrics for determining rewards.

It can also mean that the exchange is updating its rules for participating in liquidity mining, for example by setting new minimum or maximum balance requirements, or by introducing new pools for different assets.

In summary, when gauges on a DEX are renewed, it means that the exchange is updating its parameters for determining liquidity mining rewards, which can include changes in the reward structure, the metrics used to measure liquidity, or the rules for participating in liquidity mining.
