Streaming music has been around for a long time, but the way it is distributed and paid continues to change, leading to challenges. A company that is dealing with the audio morphing landscape is Volareo. I spoke with its founder, Nick NM Yap, to learn more about the Volareo speaker (See the figure) and how it differs from more conventional distribution solutions.
Volareo's smart speaker uses blockchain technology to track the music he plays, offering a different method of paying for what you listen to.
What is Volareo?
Volareo is a music streaming speaker that makes the benefits of accessible blockchain and cryptocurrency easy to use. Born from the need for innovation in high-quality hardware, Volareo seeks to help active musicians and discoverers, trying to use innovative technologies in the music industry.
It is also an open and decentralized platform that allows creators, developers, cryptocurrency enthusiasts, blockchain partners and voice business to thrive in my decentralized ecosystem, where privacy and anonymity are guaranteed.
Why is the Volareo streaming speaker different?
Volareo offers consumers an independent, reliable, fair and supportive alternative to devices built by large conglomerates. It is the first to offer voice integration with various blockchain-based platforms, such as Musicoin, Emanate, Choon, Soundeon and many others.
We believe that consumers should have freedom of choice and a wider range of smart speakers to choose from than those currently on the market. Moreover, Volareo is completely private and completely open source, which makes it a truly unique product.
Volareo's mission is not to monetize its users, but to make it easier for people to support their creators of favorite content, and eventually build a stronger bond with them. This can be done using blockchain technology and cryptocurrency, which will be easily convertible into legal currency with Volareo.

How is blockchain technology used in the system?
Voice control is integrated with streaming platforms, concert tickets, merchandising, etc. Based on the blockchain. These platforms allow direct payments in cryptocurrency, which guarantee content creators a fair premium and maximum peace of mind for consumers. The security of data chains makes it possible.
Why can these services only be provided with a technology like blockchain?
The decentralized accounting system allows data to be securely stored and tracked and therefore content creators need to be rewarded in an instant and more equitably. Centralized non-blockchain services do not offer this luxury (which should be common). Therefore, user data is kept secure and is not exported to the cloud.
How users, musicians, etc. Do they actually use the system?
Users and content creators use their voices or keystrokes to interact with the speaker and the platforms connected to it. This is a welcome alternative to being fixed on a screen, typing, searching and scrolling. The Volareo app offers an additional platform for a smartphone / tablet, where musicians can access information about the biggest fans not available before.
In addition, Volareo accepts voice commands and can be controlled within the app in four languages: English, Dutch, Spanish and French, with other languages supported in the future. With voice commands, listeners can search by artist, song title or even text, thanks, for example, to Volareo's partnership with LyricFind.
How did Volareo build the system?
I have over 25 years of experience in consumer electronics, and I have used my experience to start the Volareo journey.
A combination of internal and external hardware and software specialists has been involved in the construction of the Volareo ecosystem, which incorporates an open software platform and the speaker. The Hong Kong-based accelerator Zeroth.ai helped develop Volareo's artificial intelligence.
