Artrade is an innovative art market platform based on the Solana blockchain, dedicated to reshaping the way art is bought, traded, and experienced. By transforming physical artworks into real-world assets (RWA), Artrade injects new vitality into the art industry through blockchain technology.

Innovative technology reshapes trust

Since its establishment in 2021, Artrade has developed into a thriving ecosystem with over 7,000 active users. As of January 2024, the platform's market value has exceeded $180 million, becoming an important driver in the art and blockchain fields. The platform's core technology—the Real Protocol—combined with NFC chip technology, enables the seamless conversion of physical artworks into digital assets, ensuring the authenticity and traceability of each piece. This technology not only brings greater trust to artists, collectors, and investors but also makes art transactions more secure and transparent.

The artworks on the Artrade platform include masterpieces from world-renowned artists and brands, including classics by Kaws, Banksy, Warhol, and Basquiat, as well as co-branded artworks from brands like Swatch x Omega and Louis Vuitton. All artworks are certified through real protocols, ensuring a seamless connection between the physical and digital worlds.

Exciting Events: From Picasso to Snoop Dogg

Artrade's innovative activities continue to attract the attention of art enthusiasts worldwide. This year, the platform achieved the digitalization of Picasso's original works for the first time, opening up new possibilities for global collectors to share historically significant artworks.

Additionally, Artrade has launched a special event showcasing previously unreleased portraits of Snoop Dogg taken by the world-renowned photographer Lionel Deluy. This unique photo, valued between $10,000 and $30,000, was given away to a lucky user through a social media lottery. The event not only enhanced community engagement but also highlighted Artrade's unique advantages in the integration of culture and technology.

DAO governance empowers users

Artrade achieves platform governance through a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), empowering users to decide which artworks to prioritize for digitization, thus enhancing community participation and transparency.

The platform's native token $ATR is the core of this ecosystem, providing users with benefits such as staking rewards and trading fee discounts.

  • Supporters Level: Stake at least 25,000 $ATR to enjoy a 15% annual percentage yield (APY) and a 10% trading discount.

  • Sponsors Level: Stake 100,000 $ATR to unlock higher yields and benefits.

  • Ambassadors Level: Stake 250,000 $ATR or more to enjoy a 25% annual percentage yield and a 30% trading discount.

The revenue generated by the platform is proportionally distributed to token holders, building a sustainable community economic model. At the same time, the DAO also supports incentive programs like 'ATR Army' to promote the creation and dissemination of high-quality content.

$ATR value continues to rise

In the past year, the price of $ATR has surged by an astonishing 4500%, with a further increase of 200% in the last month. Nevertheless, the current price of $ATR has not yet reached its all-time high (ATH), indicating significant growth potential.

Future Outlook

Artrade's expansion is accelerating. The $ATR token has now been listed on the Austrian exchange Bitpanda, providing a more convenient trading channel for global investors. At the same time, $ATR has also launched on major exchanges like Raydium, Gate, and Bitget, further enhancing liquidity and market coverage.

The platform's user-friendly features (such as Google account login and built-in wallet management) provide convenience for both newcomers and seasoned collectors. Additionally, support from the renowned venture fund Victus Capital (the investor behind the DeGods project) enhances Artrade's long-term development potential.

The DAO community continues to grow, with 150 new members added last month, while the platform's token value steadily rises.

As a pioneer in the integration of art and blockchain, Artrade is making art more accessible, traceable, and immersive. Artrade invites artists, collectors, and enthusiasts from around the world to join this wave of transformation and redefine the future of the global art market.
