By bridging digital and physical worlds, we’re offering labels and artists a new way forward with innovative formats for their art. The success of this collaborative drop confirms our belief – that the future of music and culture consumption is on Web3.”
Public Pressure was originally a leading music online community and magazine to empower artists and labels. Launched in 2015, the brand has now adopted a completely Web3 path forward. Further, the media company has its headquarters in London with offices around the world.
Public Pressure builds between music, culture and technology. Moreover, Public Pressure is built on the Polkadot blockchain. This blockchain has the lowest total electricity consumption and carbon emissions per year of the six proof-of-stake (POS) blockchains. Furthermore, the blockchain itself provides easy transitions from the music industry into Web3.
Moonsama is the biggest community within the Polkadot blockchain ecosystem. It is a DAO that provides multi-chain blockchain solutions including NFT collections, web3 assets, and an awesome metaverse. It also allows players to purchase in-platform NFTs as utilities.
