About Art Dream Fund
The Art Dream was co-sponsored by H. E. Justin Sun, founder of TRON, and Sydney Xiong, director of APENFT Foundation, in 2021. It aims to identify, nurture and support quality NFT artists and their works with an initial investment of ＄100 million. Apart from the funding support for art creation, the foundation will also advise award winners on marketing, publicity, copyright protection, and legal affairs. The winning artworks will be mapped onto the TRON blockchain through the TRC-721 protocol standard and permanently stored on the TRON public chain and the decentralized storage system-BFTS. With the help of TRON and the APENFT Foundation, talented artists will stand a chance to take Dart in online and offline exhibitions, art fairs, and auctions at home and abroad, collaborate with renowned international brands, and benefit from crossover marketing.
