@KeyMaster - I think Kyle got it right. I will add that depending on the circumstances, the artist may opt to get compensated in artcoin or have that artcoin converted to a fiat during the sale.  Since the art has an intrinsic value linked to the market and assuming we have an efficient market, his/her work would never be devalued due to currency risk.  If the artist chooses to hold artcoin, he/should would benefit from gains or take the losses from currency fluctuation, at that point, holding artcoin is the same as holding a foreign exchange note and subject to market fluctuations.

where is the bounty program Sr? its very promissing this project

The smart contract allocates about 4% of the total minted Artcoins at the end of the sale that will be distributed for bounties and to advisors. We haven't published the bounty program yet, formally, but will in the coming days. If you want to get involved now, send a message to OP (ArtcoinMike).

Interesting project but I have few questions. If for example the art is priced at this x amount of artcoin, exchange happens and artist gets x amount, then suddenly artcoin price at the market goes down, then artist feels his work is devalued? And problem with eth is scaling issue and gas price. Have you considered using waves? Im interested yet curious.

Just because the value of Ether goes down does not mean the value of Artcoin will go down. That is, if the price of the currency is expressed in ART/USD. In the scenario that ETH/USD declines and you wanted to make a trade of ART -> ETH, it will always just take as much ETH as necessary to == that amount in USD. Hopefully that makes sense.

I don't necessarily see Ether's current scaling issues as a long-term challenge to the project.

Hi!  The Whitepaper  and the roadmap are on our sale site @ artcoin.fund - or can be found here:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/artcoin.fund/docs/artcoin-whitepaper.pdf


In regards to the Night Watch, if I am not mistaken, it is part of the Rijksmuseum collection.  If the  Rijksmuseum would choose to sell it to us or at auction, we would have to acquire it using funds raised.  Lets say we where to buy it for 20m euro, you would be able to buy it for the artcoin equivalent (the going public exchange rate) - that is assuming you wanted to hang it in your living room.  If we did not buy it but  Rijksmuseum wanted to auction it through our platform,  it would go to the highest bidder (in artcoin regardless of the going rate).  In either case, we would store the ownership record in the blockchain so if someone created a forgery, there would be a public record that only you and you alone own Night Watch.  

You would also be able to buy a digital print for a few artcoin and view it in your gallery.  

That said,  Rijksmuseum will probably not be selling us the Night Watch.  Our arts council and token holders will select, vote and set a willingness to pay for works offered through auction houses, galleries and directly from artists.  (we have reached out to a handful of living artists like Jeff Koons to start the conversations around potentially offering their work through artcoin) - so while the Night Watch may not end up in your house or in the artcoin collection, you can feel confident that the works that do will be of equal economic and cultural value (in terms of relevance and growth)

I believe you are very much correct.  The Utility of the coin will be a very special niche.  We hope the Crypto community sees the Economic value in diversifying their coin and token strategies and that the utility of the coin (ie being the purchasing token for appraised and increasingly value work) can produce some balance to tokens and coins with no value at all.  Finally, we hope that this effort can expand the utility of blockchain as a whole and bring all new buyers into the mix.  We would love some feedback and advice around what the cryto community would like to see to strengthen the value proposition for them - please chime in with feedback if you can!

What is Artcoin About?

Artcoin is a value token built on the Ethereum network with the purpose of bringing fine art and new art to everyone.  Today, the art market is not accessible.  Artcoin will open access to that market.  Artcoin will be the future of how Art is bought, traded, tracked, accessed, valued, and authenticated.

  • With the ICO, we will acquire investment grade work that will appreciate in value
  • Your tokens would not only be exchange tradable but could be used to buy work out of the collection for your personal collection
  • Our coin supply will only increase to grow the collection and will be offered at progressively more expense rates to insure the interests of token holders are maintained and the value of their tokens grows.
  • ONLY works sold through Artcoin can be tracked on the blockchain for authenticity
  • A marketplace with allow artists to sell work directly to buyers with Artcoin
  • Virtual and Real galleries will provide access to Artcoin holders to view the collection they helped fund


Token Functionality


Distribution of Funds


  • 70% of the funds will flow into an escrow account and be spent on investment grade art.  The selection of the art will be a collaboration between our arts council and investment advisory experts and token holders.  Art will be visible virtually and token holders will be able to pay Artcoin to physically acquire the art
  • 30% of the funds will go to building the ownership validation, marketplace and digital rights platforms
