We just published a new artist story on Bitcoin For The Arts: — Dissident Beats from the World's Longest Lockdown During Melbourne's brutal 2020-2021 lockdowns — the longest in the world — Matt picked up his instruments and refused to stay silent. He lost friends, employment, and was censored across every major platform. He doubled down, releasing raw dissident music for free on a value-for-value model. When he discovered Nostr and the ValueVerse, everything changed. A censorship-resistant home where he could finally connect directly with listeners. "I am happily returning the value I have received for my music back into the ValueVerse where I gain much value." He's already onboarded two other musicians to V4V and Nostr. His advice to fellow creators: "Be brave. Risk being cancelled to express yourself. Embrace censorship-resistant protocols and turn your back on the platforms."
