The Tatiana Coin (TATIANACOIN) is the first music artist coin issued ever. It was minted by singer-songwriter Tatiana Moroz in 2014, before Cryptopunks, Etherocks and even Ethereum existed. It was built on Bitcoin using Counterparty.
It was launched with the help of Adam B. Levine, creator of Let’s Talk Bitcoin!, CEO of Pixelmind and former managing editor of Podcasts for CoinDesk.
There were 3 million TATIANACOINs minted on Counterparty (XCP).

Spells of Genesis (SoG) is the 1st blockchain-based mobile game ever made. Spells of Genesis cards were the first-ever collectibles on any blockchain. This legendary collection of NFTs was minted on Counterparty (XCP), long before the popularisation of NFTs that we see today.
TATIANACARD is a historically significant card in the SoG story. Created in collaboration with Shaban Shaame, EverDreamSoft’s founder. Only 1200 were ever made!

From as early as 2015, Tatiana had conceived of a token that would contain her combined music and artwork. She minted a run of 100 tokens for this purpose in 2015. Then in 2017, she minted tokens to contain all her albums to date.
These include the TATIANAMOROZ (100 coins), minted 10 Oct 2015 and the TATIANAALBUM (900 coins), minted on 10 Feb 2017, among others.

Think of an artist coin as a digital gift certificate or a type of token that you can hold in a digital wallet. These coins can be redeemed for backstage access, music, merchandise, held onto for future rewards, and they can even be traded or sold with other music fans.
They allow an artist to gather support from their community through long-term fundraising. The coins allow fans to become more connected and build strong relationships with their favorite artists over the course of their careers.
TatianaCoin is a unique digital currency based on top of Bitcoin using the Counterparty protocol. Bitcoin is a decentralized currency that is not manipulated by a central bank, which allows it to equalize the playing field worldwide. It uses the blockchain technology, which is a public ledger network that could store all kinds of information, such as property rights, digital rights, smart contracts, payments, and more. This allows for greater speed and transparency. It provides virtually free access to this global currency to anyone who had a cell phone or an internet connection, even in the most remote parts of the world!
Tatiana Moroz’s next album is coming soon in summer 2022. Fans will be able to purchase the Tatiana Coin using cryptocurrency or credit cards. Fans that purchase using the Tatiana Coin can get advanced access to the album with special bonuses. Stay tuned for details.
