Strategic Safeguarding of CryptoArt On-Chain

Ledger’s collaboration with Sotheby’s aligns perfectly with its plans to establish a notable presence in the digital art sphere. Last year, the firm initiated developing an NFT art collection with an endowment fund to increase the global NFT footprint. Still, this isn’t the first time commencing such assets, with its Genesis NFT collection — granting limited edition Ledger Black-on-Black Nano X cold wallets — being a 24 hour sell-out.

Sotheby’s, on the flip side, is actively pursuing to enhance its stance in the digital art world. Already, the auction house is a pioneering force on-chain, recently netting $1.2M in 24 hours through a generative Art Blocks auction and $6.2M from Dmitri Cherniak’s NFT ‘The Goose’, among other significant sales.

Soon, these Ledger x Sotheby’s advantages will provide art collectors with the opportunity to explore the importance and value of independent asset protection. Not only does the cooperation embody an epoch whereby art and technology coexist, but it unveils new horizons for preserving virtual, decentralized creativity via Ledger x Sotheby’s wallets and educational resources.
