In the unofficial telegram chat for Linx, the corrupt admins will try and supress the free flow of information about crypto in the music industry by blocking information on rival projects through bans and blame it on "shilling".

Here is a list of alternatives to Linx to be used as a resource for comparison and contrast (some of these can be considered direct competitors, others are not), however, they are all competing for the music space. As you may notice, there is a lot of projects, some with serious backing and funding, DYOR:

1 ) MUSICOIN - is a project within the cryptocurrency realm that is striving to better allow music creators and artists to connect to their fans and listeners.

2 ) VOISE - is a blockchain powered anonymous decentralized platform with personalized token based on Ethereum's smart contract ecosystem for transactions.

3 ) GRMTK - the GRMTK Token represents the intellectual property of Gramatik, an iconoclastic and revered DJ in the international club and festival scene.

4 ) MOOSECOIN - a blockchain based music platform bringing together musicians, music lovers, streaming services, recordlabels and investors.

5 ) VIBERATE - Viberate is a live music ecosystem and a blockchain-based marketplace that connects artists and music-industry professionals.

6 ) MUSICONOMI - Musiconomi represents a new music economy that reshapes the way listeners and musicians engage

7 ) UJO - to create a transparent and decentralized database of rights and rights owners, automating royalty payments using smart contracts and cryptocurrency.

8 ) AUDIOCOIN - a Digital Currency For The Music Industry

10 ) OPUS - Decentralized music distribution using InterPlanetary File Systems (IPFS) on the blockchain.

11 ) CHOON - is a music streaming service and digital payments ecosystem powered by the Ethereum blockchain designed to solve some of the music industry's most fundamental problems.

12 ) INMUSIK - is an ecosystem based on a blockchain database that supports the music industry, streaming, and social interaction, with cryptocurrency rewards and a financial framework on which future music industry applications can be built.

13 ) BITSONG - BitSong is a new music platform, which will be built using the Ethereum blockchain and the IPFS distribuited filesystem.

14 ) RESONATE - Resonate is a streaming music service cooperative owned by the people that use it musicians, indie labels, fans + developers. Stream it until you own it.

15 ) BITTUNES - Bittunes is a digital music service where artists and fans discover, connect and earn together. Bittunes operates outside the structures of the music industry.

16 ) POTENTIAM - Potentiam is a music platform governed by the users where the rewards are distributed between all those that bring value to it without the need for middlemen.

17 ) AUDIUS - is a new blockchain-based music platform that wants to revolutionize the way artists get paid by cutting out the middlemen.

18 ) EMUSIC - eMusic is the first major music service to embrace Blockchain technology - redefining music distribution and rights management.

19 ) MUSE - Muse is a self-paying royalty distribution platform built on Blockchain Technology.

20 ) TAO NETWORK - TAO Network is a neutral platform involved in creating blockchain projects for the music space. The solutions created by the platform are applicable to the whole music industry without favoring any single artist, record label or publishing house. The TAO of Music is supported widely by the music industry.

21 ) SOUNDAC - Autonomous Blockchain Royalty Management

it was frowned upon to mention these for purposes of comparison in the telegram chat as Chobani claimed it was advertising/promoting of other projects). Thankfully bitcointalk is a transparent medium of exchange.

Some points to observe about Linx before investing:

- No transparency (no github to prove work other than a wallet for over 1 year, random screenshots, no beta test as planned)
- Unknown devs, no possibility to confirm who they are (easy exit/run)
- No trademark (how can you expect to partner with a professional company in the music business without one?)
- No registered business entity (how can you expect to partner with a professional company in the music business without one?)
- Unresponsive devs, telegram is run by clowns (just a community with no actual access to the project), criticism is bannable
- Failed partnership to traxsource, no details provided, appears to be a dead end
- No transparent tracking of total premine left (devs are not providing links to display that the premine is still there)

Some questions to ask about Linx before investing:

How does LinxPay work?
What qualities and capabilities does LinxPay have? (for example compared to spicepay)
What are the qualities and capabilities of the flagship Linx Platform?
What functions can it undertake?
How does it compare/differ to current and upcoming rival platforms/projects in the market?
Would the music industry pick a crypto that is less developed than rival projects such as lack of smart contracts?

Mate, its time to move on from this scam.
