Nina Protocol: Rewriting the Rules of Music

EN

Nina Protocol isn’t just another music platform. It’s a rebellion against the status quo, built by musicians and technologists who are tired of seeing artists pushed to the margins. Powered by Web3 and blockchain, Nina flips the script: no middlemen, no hidden cuts, just direct, peer-to-peer transactions and radical transparency. Everything is public, every artist is in control, and the community calls the shots.

Nina’s founders, Jack Callahan, Mike Pollard, and Eric Farber, come straight from the heart of the DIY underground: punk bands, noise scenes, indie labels, and hands-on audio engineering. They’re not just building a platform, they’re creating a living, open-source archive and a digital community, inspired by the wild west days of Napster but designed to empower, not exploit.

Nina Protocol is about challenging the old models and building the next 50 years of music infrastructure. Here, independent voices don’t get lost in the algorithm — they get amplified. Their Q&As are legendary: honest, unfiltered, and always tuned in to what really matters for artists right now.

When Eric Farber hits the by:Larm stage, expect a real conversation about how tech can build a fairer, more resilient music ecosystem, one where artists and listeners are collaborators, not commodities.

Artist, label, or just curious about the future? Nina Protocol invites you to imagine a new internet for music: decentralized, community-driven, and built to last.
