Introducing Artsale: INO platform by Instaraise

30 Mar, 2023

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.
