So I can't really help with you on this as far as being a musician on steemit goes because I have not really started putting my music up on steemit yet. I have however been following and investing in blockchain based music projects since 2014.

I think you are doing some good work here but I do worry you are over looking the potential that is Muse. Muse will do to streaming what steemit has done to blogging. It is based off of steemit's code but modified to reward attention instead of upvotes and pay artist for streams. This is a far better solution than what lots of these other crypto projects are doing. Trying to create music specific token and get people to pay for music will not work. Streaming has spoiled everyone and there is no going back. Plus since Muse is based off of Graphene blockchain technology like Steem it will be able to actually handle having a large amount of users. We all know that it just takes a just a few kittens to clog ethereum. You can find out more if you check the FAQ section at museblockchain.com

Also you can find one of the founders right here on steemit. This is a link to the latest update by @cob

I know you are working on the musicians guide to steemit and I think that is amazing work. I am 100% for anything to help bring more power to the artists and financial freedom for them to create music. I am working on some math rock infused sludge songs that I hope to be able to share on here soon along with some ambient soundscape projects I have. Keep up the good work dude and I always look forward to your posts!
