Abstract

It is analysed the main characteristics and problems of digital art as well as the solutions and concerns offered by cryptographic certificates in all aspects of the life of the work of art: creation, diffusion, and preservation. The authenticity of digital art can be verified using an NFT (non-fungible token). This research aims to clarify the concerns of digital artists on the issue of ownership and authorship of digital pieces by explaining how NFTs work in the art market.
