If you are reading this, it probably means that you understand the importance of tracking the performance and progress over time. Over the past 4 weeks, we got a lot of things done and here is what the numbers have to say about it.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for contributors

We are getting more and more traction every day and we are over the moon to see our contributors improve their game. With a 9% rise from last month, we are now at the 72% of approved changes for artists, venues and events. Keep it up guys, you are doing great.

This month, you added artists from 154 countries, a lot from the US, Venezuela, Colombia, Russia and Brazil. We have no idea why, but most of them were added on Mondays.

In case you still don’t have plans for the weekend or any other day, you can choose between 81,000 upcoming music events here.

Good work pays off

Contributors, we love to have you on our team, and we are incredibly happy to share the rewards with you. Just this month, the top 10 contributors earned 18,927 VIB altogether. You probably already know that quality is key, so we upgraded our rewarding system for an even better distribution of tokens between the users.
