Sounds good. There was a tribe that started a coin,  I think it was called mazacoin or maizecoin. They maybe open to it.

Coin in the name should be reserved for verified artist.

Getting the below error when trying to connecting to Nicehash. Using the same u/p that I have always been using.

Your pool is shown as incompatible therefore we encourage you to contact pool operator to make sure that the pool is using minimal/starting pool share difficulty which is compatible with our service (and thus compatible with today's miners), please send them link to our FAQ on this topic: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=faq#faqb3. Thank you!

Its good for big artist, but I don't think it will be great for new/independent artist. Plus its just a flat subscription fee, no opportunity for the fans to invest directly into the artist.

Just came across this guy. Does a good job a presenting peer-to-peer ideas.

How about keeping it simple. You get a fee for the initial referral plus an amount equal to x% the yield generated by that user for the first year.

i'm on it!
