artchain

What is artchain?

art assets secured on the blockchain

• the world's first asset registry and deed exchange for art assets

• a single, secure marketplace for collectors, art brokers, and artists to exchange art assets with full provenance guaranteed

• secure exchange via smart contracts and escrow accounts all hashed on the blockchain for full satisfaction for all parties from every transaction

• appraisal and conveyancing costs lowered with our distributed provenance ledger

• our distributed reputation system allows great work to gain traction in the marketplace and promotion to a wide public on an intuitive interface
