  • how Jonathan monetized his content in the early days (2009) of the internet
  • what crypto event sent Jonathan down the rabbit hole and how Vitalik Buterin was involved
  • why CryptoPunks piqued Jonathan’s interest in monetizing his content on-chain

  • where his song data is being uploaded in the context of web2 and web3 
  • how SongADAO will work and how it could change the paradigm of the music industry
  • the characteristics of his 12/31/2021 NFT drop, which will see over 3,000 songs minted
