The Open Audio Protocol exists to bring the world’s music onchain. It’s a community-run, transparent, and open-source repository known as the Global Music Database.
Originally pioneered in the 2020 Audius Whitepaper, the Open Audio Protocol marks the next chapter for a music ecosystem powered by $AUDIO. The protocol combines blockchain, crypto-economics, and music industry technology standards to deliver new tools for distribution, access, and direct-to-fan freedom.
