EP 44: An introduction to Crypto Art


Listen Later

Back in the 14th century some Italian visionary invented canvas, and though it grew to become the main support medium for painting, it took a while for artists to wrap their heads around it, used as they were to wooden panels. Well, a very similar thing is happening nowadays with cryptoart! The late 2010s saw the emergence of a niche genre for purely digital art works that can be bought, sold and collected through blockchain networks. What is a blockchain network? Long story short: a transaction ledger for a cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) What does this mean and why is it a game changer for the art world? No more paperwork for sellers! You see a work you like, you press “buy”, and hallelujah it’s yours. If you wanna learn more about the wonders of cryptography, tune in for this week’s episode!
