The art industry has been slow to adopt new technologies, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t people willing to pay for original pieces of art.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to sell your art online using the blockchain technology behind Bitcoin.
Create an account with Coinify.
You can use Coinify.com to easily turn your artwork into NFT tokens. Just upload your image file and select the type of token you’d like to create.
Then, enter the price you’d like to charge per token. Finally, choose whether you’d like to receive payment via PayPal or Stripe.
Upload your artworks.
Once you’ve uploaded your artwork, you’ll need to decide how you would like to sell your work.
There are two main options: 1) Sell directly to buyers who will pay with cryptocurrency; 2) Sell to an online marketplace where buyers will pay with fiat currency.
Choose how much you’d like to sell.
If you choose to sell directly to buyers, you’ll need to set up a smart contract (a piece of code that runs automatically once certain conditions are met).
You’ll also need to find a buyer who’s willing to pay for your art using cryptocurrency.
Add your payment information.
Once you’ve completed your transaction, you’ll receive an email with instructions on how to access your tokens.
This will usually require you to log into your wallet and click “View Wallet Info.”
Wait for buyers!
You’ll need to wait until buyers purchase your artworks before you can sell them. If you’re using a marketplace like OpenSea, you’ll see a list of buyers who have purchased your work.
If you’re using another platform, check out the documentation for your particular platform.
