Ink That Never Fades
For centuries, inserting pigment under the skin defined countless cultures and rituals. Our innate desire to be unique and permanent manifests itself through arts. And, there’s no art that’s closer to the human body, more unforgiving, persistent and unique other than tattoos. More than anything, body art is a way of life.
Tattoo art, in its DNA, holds the same core values as blockchains: The main purpose of both of their existence is permanence and immutablility. Body arts are traditions that span over generations, yet they die with our bodies.
The way the tattoo businesses function today is hindering artists’ creativity and exposure in many ways: A large portion of artists, despite their talent and creativity, are bound to work from catalogs. Being a tattoo artist is mostly a day job with no passive income options. Since they are non-transferrable, there are no royalties related to tattoo art.
NFTs offer true ownership, forever. Powered by NFTs, tattoos become inheritable, a tattoo can be passed on through generations. They become collectibles, art that can be kept and sold multiple times before and even after their application on the skin. Powered by the blockchain, ownership and authorship of the art become provable, immutable and trackable. Powered by smart contracts, tattoos can be integrated into games, metaverses, AR/VR applications and future digital technologies. NFTs are the key to unlocking a potential that has never been seen before.
