SONIK · Pay to Verify

Turn every one-shot, loop, and MIDI sequence into a sub-cent revenue stream. Bypass subscription fatigue and bloated marketplaces. You don't 'swap'—you stream micro-royalties directly to the creator's wallet with every drag-and-drop. Settlement is instant on Base, turning your sample library into a self-monetizing API for other artists and AI music agents. Anyone can pay 0.01 USDC over x402 to verify someone else's QUIP chain and walk away with a receipt.
