How to convert token value appreciation into realized gains.

For Token Holders​

Realizing Gains​

Token holders benefit from price appreciation. To realize gains:

  1. Go to your Portfolio
  2. Select the song token
  3. Click "Sell"
  4. Enter amount to sell
  5. Confirm transaction
  6. Receive ETH

Example​

You bought: 1,000 tokens @ 0.0001 ETH each = 0.1 ETH
Current price: 0.00015 ETH each
Value: 0.15 ETH (+50%)

Sell 500 tokens:
- Receive: ~0.075 ETH
- Keep: 500 tokens worth ~0.075 ETH

For Creators​

Selling Initial Tokens​

As creator with 80,000 tokens:

  1. Decide how much to sell
  2. Consider market impact
  3. Sell in smaller batches
  4. Retain some for long-term

Best Practices​

  • Don't dump - Large sells crash price
  • Gradual selling - Spread over time
  • Communication - Tell community your plans
  • Retain stake - Keep skin in the game

For NFT Owners (Non-Tokenized)​

If your song isn't tokenized:

  1. Revenue paid directly to wallet
  2. Check "Earnings" section
  3. Claim when available
  4. Receive ETH/USDC
