Soniq™ - Make your music
more than a hobby.
Who we are (not another freaking ICO)
We are musicians. We are fans. We are coders.
Just like blockchain itself, we are fair, just and transparent. We are not another freaking ICO and we do not want to promise the world and then deliver a speck of dust.
Having a rich background in blockchain development, we believe we are more than competent to bring you alternate solutions to help connect people who want to participate in the world of music and earn, both as creatives and fans.
We want you to succeed and we want everyone to be treated according to what they deserve. We take pride in our forward-thinking and celebrate progress. We are Soniq, a project where collaboration and fair play aren’t mere concepts, but the norm. We promise to do one simple, yet awesome thing: provide the world of music with something no one else has ever come up with - a real-world blockchain use case with all the benefits it brings - transparency, security, geographic independence.
Why we’re doing this (the unified banner of Soniq)
We understand the problem and we have the solution
Have you ever wondered why music middle management professionals charge so much for their services? So have we, and we have no idea. Without dealing with the hows, whats and whys of the current state of the music industry, we’ve decided to take our project down the path of blockchain.
TThrough blockchain, we want to make sure that you earn automatically and instantly for your contribution and the value you’re contributing, without a price tag set by corporate business people. People take the music industry for granted - we are here to change that.
Where we come from (the Cypherfunks)
The Cypherfunks evolution
The Cypherfunks was an original concept behind crowdfunding a global band, using a decentralized cryptocurrency. The project has slowly grown into a much more mature, much more idealistic movement. Where the Cypherfunks was a band that celebrated collaboration (yay, we’re a global band!), Soniq adds fairness, equality and skills exchange to the equation (yay, we’re a global band that gets paid!) Soniq is a global band and we invite you to be a part of it!
What we are doing (our part)
Building blockchain-powered products that will help make your music more than a hobby
Ideas we are working on:
SONIQ Stars - take your freshly minted SONIQ for a spin in our fun and immersive, brand-spanking-new, never-before-seen breed of interactive talent show, from the comfort of your phone.
Enjoying The Voice, The X-Factor, American Idol and the likes? We are taking the talent show concept to a whole new level! Watch or participate in music contests from your phone, anytime, from anywhere. Choose from multiple, theme-based events - #guitarsolo standoff anyone? Spend and earn SONIQ by competing, voting & reacting - we prepared prize pools both for contenders and the audience. Build up your rep, become a judge and go full-on Simon Cowell!
Invest your SONIQ in a promising artist - or just support a buddy with an awful voice and a ton of passion. Help them win the hearts of people - and a prize in SONIQ. Organize events - challenge your friends to a drum session frenzy. Or go for big time event sponsorship - promote, attract & engage audience for a hefty return-on-investment in SONIQ. Secure, transparent voting, forever rig-free - because blockchain!
A music skills exchange platform - Do you need a producer that specializes in your genre(s)? We offer to connect you with the right professional. Need a session sax player for recording a solo on a song? We’ve got you covered! Want to hire a DJ to play your venue? Say no more! The Ethereum-powered Skills Exchange Platform is going to be the world’s largest pool of music creatives and experts full of enthusiasm and drive, who are ready to take on the music industry and make it work for them.
The cryptocurrency side to the Skills Exchange Platform is exactly what makes this project possible. This is one of the pillars of Soniq - pay and get paid in our coin. This is a decentralized, peer-to-peer network, meaning minimal fees and, most importantly, no middlemen!
This doesn’t even begin to explain what we’re doing, or the amount of passion, dedication and thought invested into this project - check out our white paper if you really want to get to know us and what we aspire to do.

Do we have a token
Soniq Token
SONIQ token is an open source, cryptographic ERC20 compliant token on the Ethereum network. It has no additional (fancy) functionalities than those defined in the ERC20 interface.
All of the activity under the umbrella of Soniq will be performed using SONIQ as it will be an integral part of the platform and other upcoming products under the Soniq banner.
Smart contract address:
0x1c62aca2b7605db3606eacda7bc67a1857ddb8ff
Why should you buy SONIQ?
SONIQ is a low supply token, and with up to 45,000,000 units in circulation it's realistic to expect it to surpass the US Dollar value per unit, especially once its use case becomes available for global use.
SONIQ was born in August 2018 when, after a 2-month swap period, 76% of Cypherfunks were swapped for freshly minted SONIQ tokens. You can read more about the swap in this article.
The team behind the Soniq project is working on an online talent competition show application that uses the SONIQ token as the sole payment mean, that allows the audience to vote for their favorite contender as well as post comments, like, send gifts & tips, emojis, etc.
Also, the winner of every round of competition wins a particular amount of SONIQ, provided by the competition sponsor, which they can use for further self promotion and purchase of premium-level perks.
We firmly believe that, as the popularity of the app grows, the token usage will follow in suit, creating the demand for an already scarce (low supply) token. This is why we wanted the SONIQ investors taking a bigger part in the Soniq ecosystem:
A significant percentage of SONIQ profits will be added to the special pool; e.g. locked and out of circulation.
What’s the purpose of this model? The purpose is to incentivize the SONIQ holders to have a say in management decisions, further project directions and basically partake in managing the funds from the pool.
Holders’ voting power will be determined by the amount of SONIQ tokens they hold according to a rich list.
