Problem
Photographers often lack control over the rights and royalties associated with their digital images when selling them online. Traditional NFT marketplaces may not provide the necessary tools for photographers to effectively manage their work and ensure provenance.
Solution
Sloika is a curated NFT marketplace designed specifically for photography, providing photographers with the tools to sell and manage their work on the blockchain. The platform enables photographers to maintain control over their image rights by using custom smart contracts and setting their own royalty fees. Sloika focuses on high-quality photography, offering larger image sizes and detailed properties for each series. Every photographer is carefully verified, and each series is minted on a provenance un-upgradable contract with a fixed supply using a custom token, ensuring authenticity and rarity.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes photographers looking to sell their work as NFTs while retaining control over rights and royalties, as well as collectors seeking curated, high-quality photographic NFTs with verified provenance.
