Opportunities and challenges of NFTs

Can arts workers use blockchain technologies to build economic power?

We’re excited about the opportunities blockchain technologies offer for arts workers to control and derive economic benefits from their work. However, lack of information, tools, and means to exert collective power may undermine the potential of these technologies to deliver greater self-determination to creators, especially those from marginalized communities. 

We’re in the early stages of advocating for artists’ ownership rights in this space. We want to make sure that advocacy is rooted in the lived experiences of artists working in this space. Have a blockchain technology experience story to share?  We’d love to hear it here!
