"Why do some people have a lot of money?"

I had a realization reading this message on our Telegram. Not everyone will be able to stack and stake PURPLE via Everstones from a combination of price, and artist-only PURPLE rewards.

Honestly, that’s the way it’s supposed to be.

For thousands of years, the color purple has represented something that not everyone can grasp, whether that be the label of royalty, or just the difficulty in acquiring the rare pigment.

“Unlike other textile colours, whose lustre faded rapidly, Tyrian purple (so-called after the Phoenician city that honed its harvesting) only intensified with weathering and wear – a miraculous quality that commanded an exorbitant price, exceeding the pigment’s weight in precious metals.” - BBC

Purple also marks the highest vibrations of visible light, a sort of transition to a higher, invisible energy. This energy is the music that PURPLE is rewarded to.

PURPLE isn’t for everyone all the time. But that's okay, it’s not supposed to be.

Blu is for everyone.

Blue is the color of the oceans, and the sky above our heads. It’s the color of the throat chakra, governer and facilitator of communication.

BLUX keeps us communicating - You communicate your daily Ups which give BLUX to artists. Your Blu Ups communicate what music you love. We give you BLUX to communicate our gratitude for guild activity. It’s the life-blood of cXc.world

BLUX is the little brother of PURPLE, but it does (almost) all the work to get music heard on the mapp, along with SOL. And even though we’re not selling BLUX, artists will be, and your participation HODLing and trading BLUX sets up an economy that will benefit listeners and creators alike.

PURPLE simply makes BLUX easier with daily Blu Ups / BLUX via Everstones, providing anyone with a stream of BLUX, not just creators.

You can unlock all the features of cXc.world without the scarce PURPLE, so to demonstrate BLUX's awesomeness, we've crafted an invite-only Beta Bash to give away BLUX 2x daily to people who enjoy cXc.world. But, I regress, I must save that information for another occasion.

Current X Change is dedicated to harmonizing Humans, Collectives, and Gaia. Our media Mapps are just the start. As we refine Purple, we also seek to redefine what it means to come together as humans and co-create. We hope you'll enjoy the tools already here, and are infinitely stoked for what the future holds.
