Verisart Plans To Use The Blockchain To Verify The Authencity Of Artworks
Startups such as Monegraph and Ascribe are entering this space both for the opportunity in the art world and for the wider platform play of ascribing authenticity to any image.
It’s also managed to sign up legendary bitcoin figure Peter Todd as a Board Advisor. Todd is both a core developer for Bitcoin and an extremely vocal and well known figure in the blockchain/Bitcoin community.
By using the Blockchain, Verisart provides digital provenance to physical works that can be verified online and in realtime. This could benefit artists, collectors and dealers alike.
