Mint, sell, and own your photography
DEX.Photos is your decentralized NFT Non-Fungible Token NFTs are tokens that we can use to represent ownership of unique items. They let us tokenise things like art, photos, collectibles, even real estate. They can only have one official owner at a time and they're secured by blockchain – no one can modify the record of ownership or copy/paste a new NFT into existence. NFT stands for non-fungible token. Non-fungible is an economic term that you could use to describe things like your furniture, a song file, or your computer. These things are not interchangeable for other items because they have unique properties. Fungible items, on the other hand, can be exchanged because their value defines them rather than their unique properties. For example, ETH* or dollars are fungible because 1 ETH* / $1 USD is exchangeable for another 1 ETH* / $1 USD. *ETH is a cryptocurrency of the Ethereum blockchain network More on ETH Learn more about NFT art & stock photography marketplace and community hub!

Fresh from the community
Hand-picked photos, refreshed every day.
Rather than viewing NFT tokens solely as unique digital artworks, DEX.Photos introduces a groundbreaking concept: considering NFT tokens as copies of digital licenses for photos used illustratively and commercially. In this innovative approach, digital art creators on DEX.Photos have the opportunity to mint and sell digital licenses for their works through NFT tokens
Multiple NFT tokens can be minted for the same piece, allowing creators to sell them for legal use, akin to the traditional model of stock photos. This transformative shift in the interaction between creators and buyers eliminates the need for additional intermediaries that often absorb a significant portion of profits
The digital license, represented by an NFT token, not only empowers creators but also provides buyers with irrefutable proof of the legal use of the purchased photo. DEX's marketplace operates on the Layer 2 Immutable zkEVM chain. This means that creators can mint digital licenses in the form of NFT tokens without incurring gas fees. The freedom to create numerous NFT tokens at no cost is a significant advantage
Regardless of the protocol of the digital license, buyers can always validate the legality of their purchase. Creators can effortlessly add and sell a multitude of their works at full value, with the added benefit of receiving PHOTO tokens through an airdrop bonus. This unique approach sets DEX.Photos apart as a trailblazer in the NFT marketplace, offering a more empowering and cost-effective solution for both creators and buyers
DEX.Photos empowers creators with 100% gas-free NFT minting and full sales revenue retention.

What's an NFT?
NFTs are tokens that we can use to represent ownership of unique items. They let us tokenise things like art, photos, collectibles, even real estate. They can only have one official owner at a time and they're secured by blockchain – no one can modify the record of ownership or copy/paste a new NFT into existence
NFT stands for non-fungible token. Non-fungible is an economic term that you could use to describe things like your furniture, a song file, or your computer. These things are not interchangeable for other items because they have unique properties
Fungible items, on the other hand, can be exchanged because their value defines them rather than their unique properties. For example, ETH* or dollars are fungible because 1 ETH* / $1 USD is exchangeable for another 1 ETH* / $1 USD
*ETH is a cryptocurrency of the Ethereum blockchain network More on ETH
How do NFTs work?
- Each token minted has a unique identifier
- They're not directly interchangeable with other tokens 1:1. For example 1 ETH is exactly the same as another ETH. This isn't the case with NFTs
- Each token has an owner and this information is easily verifiable
- They live on blockchain and can be bought and sold on any blockchain-based NFT market
In other words, if you own an NFT
- You can easily prove you own it
- No one can manipulate it in any way
- You can sell it, and in some cases this will earn the original creator resale royalties
- Or, you can hold it forever, resting comfortably knowing your asset is secured by your wallet on blockchain
Why is this important for photographers?
The biggest use of NFTs today is in the digital content realm. That's because that industry today is broken. Content creators see their profits and earning potential swallowed by platforms
An artist publishing work on a social network makes money for the platform who sell ads to the artists followers. They get exposure in return, but exposure doesn't pay the bills
NFTs power a new creator economy where creators don't hand ownership of their content over to the platforms they use to publicise it. Ownership is baked into the content itself. When creators sell their content, funds go directly to them
If you create or buy an NFT
- You can easily prove you're the creator or owner
- You determine the license type
- You can earn royalties every time it's sold (if supported by the platform)
- You can sell it on any NFT market or peer-to-peer. You're not locked in to any platform and you don't need anyone to intermediate
