Maecenas wants to democratize access to fine art by creating a decentralized art gallery — a truly open platform where anyone can own a piece of a Picasso. Maecenas is building a global art blockchain market where assets are traded quickly and fairly on a liquid exchange.

Although 'ART' was the ticker assigned at the deployment of the Maecenas ART Token's smart contract, it is also in use by another asset with a larger market presence and higher trading volume on major exchanges. To avoid confusion in the marketplace, the alternative ticker 'MAECENAS' has been adopted for this token. This designation ensures that assets are distinctly identified.
