Title: Bitcoin Artist Collective, Anyone?
Post by: btc4peace on March 04, 2017, 08:01:06 PM
Would anyone be interested in a site where you can sign up as an artist (free of course) and submit original art.

My company can convert your art to various print products from shirts to mugs, pens, framed art, etc.

We would sell our products at a store we run and 10% of all sales would be used to buy mining contracts that pay an equal dividend to all artists based on their number of approved store listings.

Thoughts?

Ever heard of Deviantart? You're some seventeen years late. Its only a matter of time until DA introduces Bitcoin as a form of payment.

Deviantart? More like, get your work stolen hahaha.
I think he has a chance, he should just do good with globalization, suppliers and marketing :)

Buy mining contracts?Do you mean Cloud mining?Don`t do this,you will get scammed.
All the artists and designers who want to print their designs on products and sell them can use Teespring or Zazzle.
You will have to invest a lot to beat the competition of the big players like those companies.
Good luck.

For starters, 10% is way lower than a fair percentage, 40% should be the least for these kinds of sales. Payments shouldn't be in a indirect manner (mining contract earnings being divided and then paying the artist) but instead it should be directed at artists (in bitcoin) on a regular manner.
What measurements would be taken to ensure the artists of fair earnings? Would there be a transparency in terms of each sales for each artist?

I think my idea is broader than the replies.

I envisioned a self-serve / anyone can register and submit original art so long as it has commercial re-use license.

Our system will auto create art_collections->authors->Art_Title->item (mugs, skins, shirts, etc).

When a sale is made, we invest profits and pay kickbacks based on involvement.

Needs to be scalable and reliable

It's definitely an idea although there are similar sites that already exist.
The only issue with it being a self-serve site is how will you be able to ensure that all artworks that are published are otingonal? I assume that you'd be targeting new artists, but how'd you ensure that the paintings in question are really their work?

Yeah, Devian Art is the preceedor of this type of start up. But the usage of bitcoin REALLY MATTERS thats why I think I'll try to contact your company as soon as I get an idea of the art I can do :D Actually social networks lack this type projects. Many communities on FB and many Instagram accounts strongly need it
