TheArtToken (TAT)

What is TheArtToken

Securing capital with the world‘s oldest and most stable asset - art. For the first time, investors have the option to collateralize cryptocurrencies with a real and fungible asset, using a token 100% backed by art. Everything is managed, insured and secured with Swiss precision and discretion.

The works of art, carefully curated by internationally active art experts, form the solid basis of TheArtToken (TAT). TAT already has a prefunded art collection worth USD 4.1 million, which forms the cornerstone of the asset-backed token. All funds collected via the security token offering (STO) are after investment converted directly into the tangible asset and thus protected against fluctuations and volatility on the crypto market. The funds are invested in Post War & Contemporary art, which has had a certified return on investment of +10.85% p.a. on average for more than 50 years (see Deloitte Art & Finance Report). In addition investors can trade their TATs daily on exchanges, participate in the security and annual appreciation of the assets by holding them or even redeeming TATs into artworks.

The long-term goal is to secure the crypto assets of the investors in gaining constant value through art assets without being subject to fluctuations of the crypto markets and to ensure appreciation with a minimum of speculation. Simultaneously one of the most prestigious contemporary art collections in the world will thus be built up.

Challenge

The world of cryptocurrencies is characterized by the extreme volatility of the market. Therefore it is a sheer impossibility to make predictable investments in the long term and to accumulate money without speculating. The great potential for appreciation carries an even greater risk of total loss. Many cryptocurrencies, tokens and ICOs are mostly based on just an idea. A vision, whose probability of occurrence remains indefinable.

Solution

With TheArtToken (TAT), a token has been created that is backed and secured in value by a solid, internationally curated art collection. Internationally traded masterworks of contemporary art form the basis for security and permanence of investors‘ crypto assets.
