Zo Studio
Zo Studio enables artists to leverage their talent, establish connections with collectors, and broaden their reach by utilizing NFTs as a means of monetization. Aspiring and established artists can actualize their talents and devise a long-term NFT strategy. They can also find other artists to collaborate with while building a community that depicts global cultures via NFTs. These NFTs will be spearheading the effort of diversifying the art industry while boosting the artist’s earnings and their collector community. Zo Studio is bullish about NFTs bought for investments, utilities and as identities. The Zo Membership doubles as an NFT that provides access to this trusted community and their products, and services.
Zo Studio has already inspired 20 artists to launch their collection and has achieved a 100% sell-out rate with buyers from 10+ countries who now own 10,000+ NFTs.
The NFT industry has seen a huge uptick in recent times. According to a report by market tracker CryptoSlam, total NFT sales on the Ethereum blockchain – which hosts most trading – jumped to $780.2 million in January 2023 from $546.9 million the month before. Since NFTs are digital assets that use blockchain technology to prove ownership and authenticity of content, they are a great way for digital artists, gamers, and musicians to monetize their content and ensure that it remains unique and protected. As of Feb 2023, the total NFTs sales volume since 2018 on the Ethereum blockchain is $37 Billion with 28.6 million transactions and 2.9 million NFT collectors according to a report by The Block. Blockchain technology has opened up a whole new market for digital art, and some NFTs have sold for millions of dollars at auction.
However, there are some challenges hindering the widespread adoption of NFTs. A significant lack of awareness coupled with the absence of knowledge regarding the opportunities and benefits of NFTs is a huge barrier. In addition, collectors struggle to find trustworthy creators, while creators lack resources and networks to succeed. Furthermore, artists struggle with monetizing diverse art forms and breaking into exclusive art markets. Here is where Zo World aims to make the biggest impact by creating a community of trusted artists and collectors. Zo World truly believes that one day, the world of art will be a mix of traditional paintings and NFTs.
