This week's guest(s):

Violetta Zironi, Italian singer-songwriter and actress with a decade-long career in traditional music, has birthed five studio albums and multiple world tours. In film, she has starred in three movies, including a Netflix Original production.

Venturing into blockchain in 2022, she is the #1 music NFT artist globally generating $2.5 million in revenue, showcasing resilience, a true entrepreneurial spirit and paving a new path for independent artists.

When starting to operate within the blockchain space, Violetta decided to put her traditional music releases on standby to fully explore the possibilities of web3, and managed to foster a community of 1,500 dedicated fans, sell over 10K music NFTs and lately a single song inscribed on the Bitcoin blockchain as an Ordinal for 1 BTC. 

Violetta believes the decentralized principles of Bitcoin can be applied to every aspect of life and creativity, including music, and is working to achieve self sovereignty for artists.
