Dear friends,
I'm happy to announce, that after being a successful crypto-artist for almost 2 years (using Ethereum), I just tokenized and sold my first tokenized artwork on the Hive blockchain.
NFT Showroom
The project, that made it possible is called @nftshowroom and it's a marketplace for rare tokenized art on the Hive chain.
Members of the Minnow Support Project and the Peace, Abundance, and Liberty Network Discord Group announce a new project that is currently in alpha on Hive!
Being an early adaptor and a long time member of the Steemit/Hive community, I was lucky enough to be accepted as one of the whitelisted artists.
We have already started testing with a small group of verified artists to evaluate the site UI and functionality. Once we are satisfied that things are working as intended we will open up admissions to the public.
Some familar names
Although the platform is really super-new, there are already a few artworks of well known artist available, like @mikkolyytinen, @yusaymon, @richardfyates and @juliakponsford to name a few.
After sending out a tweet about it, my long time artist buddy @mr-monk also joined #nftshowroom and published his first #hive #nft.
First Sale
I particularly was happy to notice, that he also bought edition one of my Hive Mind artwork. So thanks a lot to him and congratulations for that historic purchase.
There are 2/3 editions left and I slightly raise the price to reward early adopters. Current price is 125 SWAP.HIVE.
Invest in Cryptoart
NFT's are a definitely one of the best use-cases for blockchain technology and most of my cryptoart doubled or trippled it's price in a few month on the secondary market. But I also already made up to 10 times of the initial sales-price on some of my collected nft's.
So you should definitely check out the NFTshowroom website, follow them on Hive, Twitter and Instagram.
For any questions or support please visit the NFT Showroom discord.

Hey, congratulations for fist sale of digital art nft show room, at early morning i knew about it of announce. Your hard work is finally turn into a moving forward with this platform.
Thanks you! I will see how it turns out, but I'm looking forward to attracting more Hive people into cryptoart.
Man! Thanks for the mention, and congratulations to everyone who is already involved with the platform. Developers, admins, testers, artists, collectors, and art enthusiasts. This is a huge achievement to both sides, to cryptoart community and to hive. I feel so proud of being part of all of this.
Yay! Thanks again for being my first Hive-cryptoart collector! It's a great step for Hive and hopefully will bring more crypto-people into collecting rare digital art.

👏👏👏 Congrats on your first sale!
Thanks a lot! Thanks for helping to make it possible! 🙌
Wow, congrads! I have two pieces of NFT artwork in my collection and I'm glad to see another made its way home to someone. I'll check out your work out!
Awesome! Collecting nft's can be very fulfilling and rewarding at the same time.
Congrats on your sale and joining NFT Showroom! Your stuff is amazing!
Thanks a lot for your appreciation! Digging your stuff as well 😉
That's really cool! It's only in recent years that I've started to collect more art. Would love to see this evolve to where you can get a physical copy that has a unique ID and proof of originality using Hive.
Agreed, that would be cool! I once used nfc-stickers to link to the proof of authenticity of some of my artworks on the ethereum-blockchain (but I think the project has been discontinued). You could print a qr-code on the back of an artwork, that links to the blockchain record. On the other hand, digital frames and virtual galleries are definitely becoming a thing right now.
That's cool! I learned something new:).
Would love it if there's both something physical on the artwork, as well as a record on chain showing proof of ownership. Would add something valuable to any artwork right away imo.
wow that's amazing! Congratulations!!!!
Thanks a lot!
Congratulations on the sale! NFTshowroom is such an amazing development step for the platform.
Thank you, I definitely agree. It was way time to implement such a nft-market on Hive. Especially as you can now blog about your work and sell it using the same blockchain. Hopefully it will help to cross-promote and intensify the interchange between cryptoartists and collectors using different blockchains.
