# About Sonorus **Sonorus is a Web3 protocol to revolutionize how MUSIC is published, discovered, and monetized.** The traditional music industry has long been criticized for its lack of transparency, unfair business model, and limited opportunities for artists. With blockchain technology at our core, Sonorus proposes an innovative community-driven music NFT publishing protocol, in which the value of great music works can be truly recognized, the originality of music fully respected, and the beauty of music widely recognized. On Sonorus, great music works are not only published in the form of NFT, but more importantly, they are empowered by a set of mechanisms to reflect the community's collective appreciation of the music on the NFTs. The mechanisms are designed to provide fair and strong incentives for artists and fans to create and discover great music works. So that great music is never left unheard. Join us on this transformative journey as we unlock the true potential of music on Web3! *Note: Sonorus is constantly improving and evolving as it grows, so the content in the Whitepaper could be changed in the future.* --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
