Social Movements In Art Are On-Chain
summary
A project proves a paper claim: signed works by women and non‑binary artists often fetch less value, so 100 signatures are packaged and sold as NFTs on Tezos using smart contracts, FXHash and marketplace tools; conceived over a dinner and minted and sold within minutes the next day, released in weekly drops of 12, sold out and ends up in museum collections; contracts and licensing are handled fast, and the experiment demonstrably raises symbolic and literal value.
