This record serves as a permanent statement of authenticity that can be viewed or accessed by anyone. Today, when you buy a piece of art or a collector's item, it typically comes with a paper certificate of authenticity, which you must then keep track of forever. It is easily forgotten, lost or destroyed, creating a very fragile system for authenticity. Blockchain’s offer a simple and more secure solution to this long standing issue of proving authenticity.
Let’s say you want to buy a piece of artwork from Banksy. With NFTs, you can see the entire history of that piece, all the past owners, every sale, all the way back to Banksy's’ original creation of the piece. Without NFTs, you wouldn’t know if you were buying the real piece or just a really good fake.
One of the benefits of blockchains is that they are decentralized systems, meaning, they are not controlled by a single entity. This can help to promote fairness and transparency in the distribution and ownership of NFTs. Decentralization offers a layer of protection and transparency through trustless and permissionless transactions.
This technology is revolutionary for collectors, too. Imagine you’re about to buy a concert ticket online— with NFTs, you can trust its authenticity, because of the undisputed blockchain history, instead of relying on the reseller’s word.
NFT safety?
Web3 technology is still new and constantly evolving, so while no single action guarantees protection, there are best practices that can help. The best rule of thumb is that if something looks too good to be true, it probably is. Never share your wallet’s seed phrase, be careful when taking actions using your wallet, and make sure to thoroughly evaluate NFTs before buying.
Use your common sense when using crypto, blockchain, NFTs and other new technologies. Doublecheck before you agree on anything.
Screenshot it?
'Can’t I just right-click and save or screenshot the photograph or the NFT?'
Of course you can save or screenshot an NFT, but that doesn’t make you the owner. Taking a picture of the Mona Lisa doesn’t mean you own it. You could print it out and enjoy the art, but you wouldn’t be able to resell it for its true value. Similarly, you could take a screenshot of a Bored Ape, but that won’t get you on the yacht (the unique utility that makes collecting this NFT extra special).
Similarly, you can screenshot a Marcus Musashi photograph, but the quality of that screenshot will be to low to generate a epic sized real print. Also, it will not have the unique NFT code, autograph, dating and numbering that has been given to the print when it's bought. This makes sure that you have the absolute real art work collected.
How to buy an NFT?
There are multiple marketplaces to buy NFTs, like OpenSea. You can also get NFTs from people who send it theirselves to your digital wallet (like MetaMask). To learn the
basics of buying an NFT, please check out our partner at OpenSea (which also provided context and media for this page).
After that, please return to our Studio to collect your art.

And last but not least;
Why should I buy an NFT of Marcus Musashi?
The unique formula that makes this purchase so valuable is the combination of the museum quality fine art and the NFT. You get a physical art piece of the highest quality, including the digital verification.
This combination makes it perfect to buy, keep and resell these artworks.
Mind you, the NFT is optional, not mandatory.
The upsides?
Also, the fine art of Marcus Musashi is very rare with just a handful of editions per photographs. When these art works are sold out, it will never be made ever again. This is your chance to own a Marcus Musashi in your space.
To make sure you truly have the real art works, we carefully curated and figured out how to make sure the art is double-authenticated. The NFT is verified by the blockchain, and the fine art will have a unique marking that is added after the order is made, making sure that you have the absolute real deal. This makes reselling easier, more trustworthy and professional.
A big plus is also the upsides you gain when you purchase the NFT from Marcus Musashi:
+ Be the very first to know of new artworks
+ You are a proud owner of a super limited fine art work and NFT
+ You support the art, the journey, and future artworks of the artist
+ Buyers get access to an exclusive club of fine art buyers
+ You will receive a free copy of future coffee table books
+ You can access future galleries and exhibitions for free
It would be a great honor to have you as our client.
