The New York Times journalist Scott Reyburn analyzes the theme of the Blockchain applied to the art. A lot of stakeholders, such as the Christie’s auction house, are trying to introduce the Blockchain in the sector to ensure more transparent transactions and a brighter market.
Collectors and professionals could verify safely the authenticity, provenance and ownership of the masterpieces on a ledger located in the cloud.
The Blockchain has already had interesting results in the field of art in digital format through files reproduced and redistributed indefinitely. This new business could bring considerable cash flow for the future scenarios.
