CoinGeek reported on SonicStar, a music streaming and distribution platform built on BSV Blockchain. The platform lets artists upload music, receive satoshi-based payments per stream, and sell tracks as 1Sat Ordinals. Creator Ruth Heasman said she earned almost as much in a few weeks on SonicStar as she had in two years on Spotify, using her own catalog as an early demonstration. (CoinGeek)

SonicStar uses nanopayments of about one thousand satoshis per play, while artists can also sell copies of tracks as 1Sat Ordinals held by listeners in their own wallets. The article says artists keep 75% of each sale, the platform takes 15%, and the payment split is enforced by the transaction itself rather than by later royalty reporting. (CoinGeek)

The platform also connects to the wider AI-agent theme. Heasman said SonicStar welcomes AI-generated music where the artist holds ownership rights, and the article explored the possibility that AI agents could become customers, curators, collaborators, or purchasers inside a wallet-based music platform.

BSV TIMES read:
SonicStar is a practical application story because it shows BSV Blockchain being used in a familiar consumer setting: music. The important point is not only that music can be placed on-chain or sold as Ordinals, but that micropayments can create a different economic structure for artists, listeners, and future AI-agent discovery.
