THE EXACT PROCESS THE PASTEL NETWORK USES TO RESOLVE THE ISSUES OF LEGITIMACY AND OWNERSHIP IN THE DIGITAL ART INDUSTRY
The digital artwork industry is in dire need of help. Currently, the industry is held down by issues bordering on the legitimacy and ownership of digital artworks.
On the one hand, creators of digital artworks find it hard to convince the artwork collectors that they are the owners of the artwork in question.
On the other hand, digital artwork collectors are now wary of purchasing and collecting artworks from the digital marketplace because they are not certain of the number of collectors that already have the same copy.
Thus, it wouldn’t be out of place to posit that the traditional digital artwork industry is fragmented across the lines of legitimacy and ownership of digital arts.
All that is set to change, thanks to the innovative inputs and the set of technological improvements made by the Pastel Network.
This article explains the important details of this new and decentralized digital artwork marketplace designed by the Pastel Network.
THE PASTEL ID
While the Pastel Network is hinged on blockchain technology, it doesn’t leave it at that. There is still more room for introducing more features that will help in ending the rift between artists and artwork collectors.
The best way to resolve that is via the Pastel ID. This is a unique identification process that empowers both the artists and the artwork collectors to use the distributive and decentralized architecture of the Pastel Network to the fullest.
With the Pastel ID, both the artwork collectors and the artists can work together, thereby, making digital artwork creation and collection something that both parties will look forward to.
HOW DOES THE PASTEL ID WORK?
The Pastel ID works in the following ways:
1- Created by the Artists
The Pastel ID is created by the artists because it is one of the requirements they are expected to provide before their digital artworks can be uploaded to the Pastel Network blockchain platform.
On the one hand, the Pastel ID boosts the artists’ control over their artworks because it is an excellent way of keeping their Intellectual Property (IP), in this case, digital artworks, secure.
On the other hand, the Pastel ID is used to access the Pastel Network. So, it the artwork collector or the artist doesn’t have the ID, they wouldn’t access the Pastel Network.
2- The Pastel ID is Used to Prove Authenticity
The Pastel ID can also be used as an excellent way for artists to prove that they own artworks uploaded on the Pastel Network.
The concept is that the Pastel ID is made up of a public ID and a private key. Those two are connected to the public accounts of the artists, especially their social media accounts.
Through that means, potential artwork collectors can easily check the public accounts of the artists to confirm if they are the owners of the artworks.
WRAPPING UP
The Pastel Network is a good addition to the digital art industry. I am optimistic that the wide range of inputs this network has to make will take the digital artwork industry from where it is to where it ought to be.
