The Next Chapter of SuperRare

Art is unstoppable.

It’s March 2025. A wave of art platforms just shuttered. Crypto is rallying, but art sales lag. The market feels bruised, but we’ve seen this before. And every time, the story ends the same way: art persists.

Art outlives cycles, crashes, and hype. It reinvents itself, mutates, and ascends. Digital art is no different—It’s the most important art movement of our generation, and it will have its moment again this year on its inevitable march towards a multi-trillion-dollar market.

SuperRare was built for the long game. And this year, we’re taking bold steps forward.

A Sharper SuperRare

When we launched in 2018, our mission was to cement digital art in history. We started with decentralized art minting tools, kickstarting the digital art boom. Since then, we’ve tested many models, and the ones that best served our community always led back to one theme: curation.

So this year, we’re doubling down with even tighter curation-focused features, and an unrelenting focus on connecting visionary artists with collectors. 

We’re redesigning our platform to showcase new exhibition formats, enhanced collection pages, and immersive storytelling.

In the months ahead, expect more changes as we refine how art is filtered and discovered on SuperRare—all in service of elevating the collector experience and maximizing value for $RARE holders.

$RARE Staking, Simplified

We're designing an improved, streamlined version of $RARE staking to enhance holder participation in SuperRare's ecosystem growth.

Anyone who believes in art’s future should share in its upside. With the majority of digital art’s volume passing through SuperRare, there’s no better way to index the art market.

And we’re expanding the network of platforms integrating $RARE, starting with a  partnership with Transient Labs and access to their suite of creator and collector tooling. (view proposal).

In the coming weeks, we’ll unveil more reward mechanics to drive art sales—channeling more value back to artists, collectors, and $RARE holders—in a flywheel to accelerate the digital art movement to new heights.

Reinventing the Art Gallery

We’ve always been onchain and online but this spring we’re going “Offline” in a big way.

Private Sales and Art Advisory

We’re building the world’s best Private Sales team to connect qualified collectors with the world’s most talented digital artists. We’ll offer personalized recommendations, facilitate exclusive sales, and provide expert guidance to help collectors navigate both acquisitions and sales.

Community Investment: More Art, More Value, More Momentum

Each upgrade above will fuel the RareDAO treasury, to be reinvested into the ecosystem. As a community, we can deploy these funds to support innovation, infrastructure, and the next wave of creative breakthroughs.

As SuperRare sharpens its focus, and the RARE ecosystem expands, together we’ll accelerate digital art’s unstoppable rise.
