Bond creates a new type of online relationship built on trust with real commitment and no lock-in. Bond sits between a free “follow” and a recurring subscription: you bond money to someone once, they earn the interest, and you can withdraw your money anytime. Since a bond is refundable, bonding is effectively free and built on trust from day one. The result is a verified audience list of real people with real intent and skin in the game. Bond was formerly known as Royal, which is an NFT music marketplace.
