Quick Start 🚀🎵

Welcome to Allfeat

Allfeat is an open and decentralized music data registry designed to provide a universal, transparent, and community-driven way to store and certify music-related information. Unlike traditional databases controlled by centralized entities, Allfeat ensures that music metadata remains accessible, tamper-proof, and collectively maintained by industry participants.

Why Allfeat? 🎼

The music industry suffers from inconsistent metadata, missing credits, and lost royalties due to fragmented and closed databases. Allfeat solves this by offering a shared and structured music data repository where everyone—artists, labels, rights holders, and fans—can contribute, verify, and benefit.

What Makes Allfeat Different? 🔍

Many existing projects, such as MusicBrainz, provide open and collaborative music databases. However, these systems rely on trust without built-in incentives or guarantees. Allfeat leverages blockchain technology to introduce economic and cryptographic assurances, ensuring that metadata is verifiable, tamper-proof, and economically incentivized to remain accurate and complete.

What You Can Do with Allfeat ✅

  • Register music information (works, artists, releases, rights...)
  • Collaboratively verify and certify its accuracy
  • Ensure data permanence and traceability

Instead of relying on a single entity to validate information, Allfeat distributes governance across its participants, ensuring data integrity through transparent, economic, and reputation-based incentives.

How Allfeat Works 🔗

Allfeat operates on a dual-layer consensus to secure and validate music data:

1️⃣ Technical Layer: Proof-of-Authority (PoA)

  • Ensures a stable and efficient network infrastructure.
  • Managed by pre-approved industry partners.
  • Provides enterprise-grade reliability and security.

2️⃣ Metadata Layer: Proof-of-Metadata (PoM)

  • Governs the validation and certification of music data.
  • Open to all participants through staking and verification.
  • Ensures that only verified and valuable data is stored permanently.

By utilizing blockchain technology, Allfeat prevents unauthorized alterations while enabling a decentralized and auditable certification of music metadata.

MIDDS: The Common Language of Music Data 📜

Allfeat introduces MIDDS (Music Industry Decentralized Data Structures), a standardized way to represent musical works, recordings, artists, and rights. MIDDS replaces fragmented, inconsistent databases with a unified, structured, and verifiable registry.

Core Principles 🔑

  • Community-Driven Governance: Data accuracy is ensured by stakeholders, not a central authority.
  • Immutable History: Each entry is time-stamped, preventing data loss or manipulation.
  • Structured Metadata: Predefined templates improve consistency and interoperability.

The Bigger Picture 🌍

By fixing metadata inaccuracies that cost artists billions in lost royalties, Allfeat transforms music metadata from a liability into a shared, auditable, and valuable asset. Through a collaborative, transparent, and economically aligned system, Allfeat paves the way for a more equitable and efficient music industry.
