What Is Corite (CO)?

Corite (CO) is a Swedish music and tech startup founded in 2018 that has its own distinct approach to funding artists. It works by letting fans invest in music and get a share of streaming profits, becoming an integral part of the journey from product creation to implementation.

Corite's blockchain-based platform allows CO token holders and music fans to participate in fan funding and promotion, get early access to Tier-1 music projects, and earn rewards for contributing to the Corite ecosystem.
