Crowdfunding Project Highlights
Showcase visionary campaigns. Turn fans into backers.
Rythme’s Crowdfunding DApp empowers artists and managers to raise funds directly from their audience — no third-party platforms, no high fees. Whether you're planning a music video, tour, vinyl pressing, or Web3 drop, our ecosystem brings your community into the process.
