About

Audius is a protocol that positions itself in the audio distribution industry as a censorship-resistant and decentralized alternative to the likes of Spotify and Apple Music. Secured by their proof-of-stake smart contract staking deployed on Ethereum, Audius utilizes a network of content and discovery nodes to store and index artists and their creations. The platform's key point of difference is that all content-related revenue is distributed to its creators, with no protocol fees.

  • Is there any risk in Staking $AUDIO?

    • There is no significant risk when delegating $AUDIO.

    Please consider that there is a risk of slashing up to 100% of your funds, in case that the validator you delegated to, signs illegal transactions or votes for illegal forks. However if the validator and your funds get slashed would be decided case by case based on an on-chain governance vote.

    If you choose a reliable validator, the risk of slashing should be close to 0.

    Additionally, please consider that there is a 7 day unbonding period before you can access your delegated funds and transfer them.
