Former X Factor star Violetta Zironi, sold a song for 1 BTC and generated 340 ETH in sales but says OnlyFans performers get more respect.
Violetta Zironi, a 30-year-old Italian singer-songwriter, might just be the poster child for Web3 music. Her path as a musician shot out of the gates at the age of 18, when she finished third on the popular reality TV show, X-Factor Italy in 2013.
Since her TV stardom, Zironi ditched a music label deal with Sony Records that she felt took advantage of her and now mints her songs on the blockchain.
In a little over three years, Zironi has built and cultivated a community of fans who see value in owning her music as NFTs. Now based in Nashville, Tennessee, she recently sold a 1 of 1 song titled “n0 0rdinary kind” for 1 Bitcoin ($60,000 at the time) as an Ordinal, and has amassed over $2.5 million in revenue through her music NFTs, including her debut collection “Moonshot” on Ethereum where the artwork was done by her father, a renowned Disney visual artist.
