Tokenization
Art is evolving, transcending physical boundaries into a limitless digital realm. At Moscoso Art, we embrace this transformation, bringing decades of artistic mastery into the new era of blockchain and tokenization.
Through tokenization, each artwork is secured, authenticated, and immortalized on the blockchain—ensuring provenance, exclusivity, and accessibility like never before. This is more than innovation; it’s a revolution in how art is valued, collected, and experienced.
¿What is asset tokenization?
Asset tokenization refers to turning physical assets, such as real estate, artwork, or commodities, into digital tokens residing on a blockchain. These tokens signify ownership or a share in an asset, facilitating its exchange or transfer.
Tokenization introduces the ability to buy fractional shares of valuable assets like artwork. It enables you to invest in an asset without buying it in whole. For instance, if an artwork is priced at $2,000, asset tokenization can help you buy it in fractions, such as 200 fractional assets of $10 each.
Benefits of assets tokenization
Asset tokenization offers significant benefits beyond providing a decentralized alternative to real-world products:
Liquidity: Traditional markets often face inefficiencies, such as high fees and long settlement times. Tokenization helps solve these problems by creating more liquid, interoperable assets on the blockchain.
Availability: Tokenized assets can be divided into millions of smaller tokens, making it easier to trade them. Fractionalized assets expand the buyer pool and reduce the need for expensive intermediaries.
Transparency: Tokenization increases transparency by recording ownership, returns, and transaction history on the blockchain. The open system reduces the risk of fraud, particularly in industries dealing with high-value assets like fine art or luxury items.
Programmability: The ability to embed code in tokens and utilize smart contracts is known as programmability, which enables greater automation. You can apply it to various use cases, such as loyalty programs, micropayments and cross-border transactions.
Composability: You can use tokenized real-world assets as collateral in decentralized markets, enhancing liquidity in the DeFi space and generating rewards for ordinary investors. This allows cutting-edge financial products like token baskets and synthetic assets to further improve the ecosystem. The term “token baskets” refers to a bundle of crypto assets designed to provide diversification, manage risk and simplify crypto investing.
How asset tokenization works
Broadly, asset tokenization involves four steps:
Verification of ownership: The owner’s rights over the asset are verified through legal and documentation checks.
Transfer to blockchain platform: The asset is transferred to a blockchain-based platform that supports tokenization.
Asset valuation: The asset’s value is assessed and finalized while complying with the regulations.
Tokenized asset offering: The asset is divided into tokens, which investors can buy and trade.
Road Map will be coming soon
A roadmap detailing the upcoming tokenization of select Moscoso artworks will soon be unveiled. This initiative will include an exclusive NFT collection in collaboration with Metalapse and the Moscoso Foundation, marking a new chapter in the convergence of traditional and digital art. Through this, we aim to expand the boundaries of artistic expression while preserving authenticity and legacy in the blockchain era.
