Introducing Artsale: INO platform by Instaraise

Greetings, NFT aficionados!

We’re beyond excited to introduce our forthcoming INO (Initial NFT Offering) platform, Artsale – a comprehensive solution designed for NFT artists and buyers alike.

At Artsale, our goal is to empower NFT creators and the entire NFT community by delivering a seamless and user-friendly crowdfunding experience.

In this blog, we’ll guide you through the concept of INO and showcase how our all-encompassing Artsale platform enables you to run pre-sales (INO), mint, and explore a diverse range of NFTs on Tezos.
Let’s jump right in!

What is an INO and how do artists benefit from it?

An INO, short for Initial NFT Offering, is a crowdfunding model inspired by the concept of Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs).

By selling a limited edition set of NFTs collection through the platform, INO offers genesis NFTs – the first generation of NFTs – allowing participating investors to capitalise on the inherent supply constraints.

This decentralised offering model addresses various challenges artists face while selling their NFTs, such as immediate liquidity while benefiting retail investors and early adopters with lower listing costs and early access to their desired NFTs

Introducing the Artsale Platform

Artsale is a comprehensive Self-hosted NFT pre-sale platform built on the Tezos Blockchain that enables users to Run Pre-sales, explore, and mint NFTs.

We’re committed to making INO easy and intuitive for artists with features that allow them to customize their NFTs, set prices, define start and end times of their sale, and establish minting limits.

How does the Artsale platform work?

Navigating through the Artsale platform is a breeze. In the main section of our Artsale website, you will be able to explore and mint NFTs, participate in the Pre-sales, search for specific NFTs, and filter them based on sale details and other parameters.

Artsale provides 3 main features which enable Creators & NFT Enthusiasts in:

🌐 NFT Discovery: More exposure to your NFTs with Instaraise

All the Pre-sale will be listed on the discovery page of the platform. Additionally, the pre-sales will be shared on Instaraise’s Twitter and Telegram channel to showcase your NFTs to a wider audience

💲 NFT pre-sale: Run Self-hosted NFT pre-sale in 2 simple steps

That’s it!

🖨️ NFT Minting: Grab your favourite NFTs before it goes to the marketplaces

Events, just for you!

Here are quick glimpses of the event that you cannot afford to miss!

💰Refer and Earn: An exclusive event for NFT enthusiasts to refer their favourite NFT artists and earn rewards in $INSTA tokens.
🐂NFT Bulls: Top NFT buyers and investors on the platform will be rewarded additionally based on a gamified leaderboard on Artsale.

Details regarding these events will be updated in upcoming days.

🚀Creating a Pre-sale for your NFT

Creating an NFT on our platform starts with an Account KYC process to ensure a fully transparent and vetted sale.

Once you’re done with the KYC, you can create a pre-sale by entering details such as the collection name, sale duration, NFT link configuration, pricing, and sale limits. 

After completing these steps, you’ll land on the sale status page, where you can verify your NFT details on the Tezos Blockchain explorer via a provided link, and your pre-sale is ready to go live!

Your NFT pre-sale will then be listed under the Projects section of Artsale website, making it easy for potential buyers to discover and participate in your sale.

You can also check the sale details and status by clicking on your sale card.

Artsale will be launched in upcoming weeks with exciting events specially organised for the NFT creators and buyers on the platform

All the event details and updates will be shared on Instaraise twitter channel.
