The Artist Market is a “stock-exchange”-style space where Talent Managers trade Synthetic Artists. It’s a gamification and entertainment module of the INarte ecosystem. You’ll find it in the Market app ( InArte — Phygital Music Collectibles | Figurine Musicali AI Certificate su Blockchain ).
The most important thing to understand: Here you don’t buy and sell artists with real money, and no ownership is transferred. What changes hands is only the management of the artist (the Talent Manager role). The artist’s intellectual property always remains solely with INarte.
What do you pay with? With Loyalty Points (PT) — the same points you accumulate through platform activities (in the market they’re also called “Etere Fragments”). PT are not money, are not convertible to cash and are not a cryptocurrency: they’re internal loyalty points.
What you can do in the Market:
Buy an artist listed by another manager
List one of your artists for sale
Send a purchase proposal (private offer) even for artists not for sale
Vote for artists with Like/Dislike
Follow the market with charts, leaderboards and a general index
How “value” works: Each artist has a Score (a number that works like a “quotation”) and an Estimated Value in PT. The more the artist sells, receives votes and wins at the Festival, the higher its Score. (We’ll see the exact calculation in the next post.)
A note on costs: on every successful purchase the platform retains a 5% fee in PT, deducted from the seller.
In short: the Market is a stock-exchange-style strategy game where you trade the management of artists using Loyalty Points — with no real money and no change of ownership.
