0.00000026: Michael Rhee, Wavlake

Michael Rhee is Founder of Wavlake. Wavlake allows artists to upload their music to its platform and connect their Lightning node to Wavlake's Lightning node. Listeners can then tip the artist or group with direct payment to their node. Michael is Changing the Tide with a platform that creates a more artist-friendly model of streaming. The goal? By cutting out middlemen and allowing listeners to make direct micropayments to their favorite musicians, these artists can benefit from the distribution model of the Internet (8 billion potential listeners) to hopefully earn significantly more from streaming than current dominant streaming platforms.
