Not directly. Rythme does not request KYC from users. However, payments via Stripe, PayPal, or Coinbase Commerce may involve their own identity verification, depending on your region and transaction size.
Earnings & Monetization
How do artists earn money?
Artists can earn through:
Music streaming bonuses
NFT or token sales

Do managers earn as well?
Yes — managers linked to verified artists earn a preset percentage of artist revenue (e.g. royalties, token sales). This is handled automatically through smart contracts — no manual invoicing needed.
Can I get paid in crypto?
Yes. If you connect a wallet, you can receive earnings directly on-chain. Otherwise, payouts default to your linked payment method or stored balance.
Safety & Support
Is my wallet safe?
Rythme never stores seed phrases or private keys. All wallet connections follow EIP-4361 (Sign-In with Ethereum) and Solana wallet adapter protocols.
Your wallet signs each transaction, and data is handled client-side.
