While the digital art market creates new opportunities, its anonymous and highly liquid space can be hard to moderate. With this issue in mind, DOS incorporates the same level of due diligence as traditional art acquisition.
DOS validation ensures that each artwork and gallery undergoes manual verification by art specialists, not just a machine. As a result, the standard prevents any possibility of copyright infringement.

Who Benefits from Due Diligence

Artwork Verification Process
Benefits of Validation
Requiring galleries to verify their identity, DOS ensures no imposters can claim ownership or digitise someone else assets. This way, the standard protects actual IP owners and provides online collectors with confidence in the authenticity of the assets they purchase.
When galleries verify credentials and art, they get more than just proof of identity. It also shows that digitized assets are backed by culturally significant physical originals. Collectors interested in art highly value this factor, which has been almost nonexistent online.
By going through the validation process, galleries establish an account that serves as the legitimate origin of artworks. In this way, collectors will be able to distinguish counterfeiters and direct their funds to you, the actual seller of digital originals.
