The Making of the Most Trustworthy Blockchain for Creators — Nik Kalyani
Write-up by Vitruveo’s Strategy Council Lead, Nik Kalyani
We are architecting Vitruveo from the ground up to be the very best Blockchain for Creators.
Over the past two years I have spoken to thousands of artists, collected thousands of artworks, hosted many exhibitions both virtual and irl, and studied every aspect of the Web3 art ecosystem: marketplaces, contracts, royalties, wallets, licenses, UIs … all of it.
There are many things that work, but there are many more that are broken. The biggest problem we have to fix if we want to get more artists and art appreciators in the space is TRUST.
Web3 has all the technology elements for trustlessness, but ironically, these very elements have thwarted the growth of Web3 art by letting scammers, copycats and fraudsters run amok.
The fix for this is to dial the decentralization back a little and add controlled centralized elements by conforming to current industry standards that are trusted by many, especially professionals in the art industry. My vision for Vitruveo blockchain is to build the most trusted blockchain for creators in existence.
I think of all the key features of the blockchain as circles that work harmoniously to create a single Circle of TRUST that becomes the foundation of everything we do in our vertically integrated ecosystem.
Vitruveo — it’s all about TRUST!
