Digital art is reshaping the world of luxury collecting by introducing a new dimension of accessibility and ownership, and Sotheby’s and Ledger are speaking to a new generation of collectors. As of 2024, those who purchase valuable digital pieces at Sotheby’s will get a limited-edition Ledger x Sotheby’s Nano X hardware wallet.
With blockchain technology enabling the creation of unique digital assets and ownership certificates, collectors can now acquire and trade high-value digital artworks securely, democratizing the luxury art market and challenging traditional notions of art ownership.
