October Recap: Major Milestones, Cultural Drops, and What’s Next

October Recap: Major Milestones, Cultural Drops, and What’s Next

October was a transformative month for LiveArt.

From launching our own trading platform to fractionalizing cultural icons like David Hockney, we’ve taken major steps toward building the leading DeFi protocol for cultural real-world assets (RWAs). Here’s a full look at what we shipped — and what’s coming next.

1. The LiveArt Trading Platform Is Live

One of October’s most important milestones was the official release of our RWA trading platform and launchpad:
👉 Start trading

Built fully in-house, this new platform was designed to serve two key functions:

• Seamless RWA Trading
Collectors can now buy and trade tokenized fine art and cultural assets directly through a sleek, on-chain interface. Our proprietary AI-powered pricing engine tracks 10M+ historical art sales — giving users the tools to monitor performance, discover price trends, and act on real-time market opportunities.

• Primary Market Access via Launchpad
Beyond trading, our Launchpad showcases all upcoming RWA drops — offering early access to tokenized cultural goods. We’re building the go-to drop platform for art, collectibles, and cultural capital on Base and beyond.

2. David Hockney’s “Paper Pool” Goes Onchain

In October, we launched one of our most significant RWAs to date:
David Hockney’s Paper Pool.

  • $2B+ artist market cap
  • Collected by Joe Lewis, David Geffen, and other elite collectors
  • Featured in MoMA and major institutions worldwide
  • Record sale: $90M at Christie’s

Now available for just $0.10 per fraction, “Paper Pool” represents a new era of accessible ownership in cultural finance.

3. New Collector Rewards & Perks

October also brought a major upgrade to our community rewards system. We introduced:

  • Fraction boosts
  • Collector badges
  • Expanded $ART earning opportunities

In response to community feedback, we’ve completed all previous campaign rewards and are committed to transparency, speed, and trust in every reward cycle.

4. Looking Ahead: What’s Coming in November

LiveArt’s cultural RWA ecosystem continues to grow. Here’s what to expect this month:

  • New drops from iconic artists and brands
  • Feature upgrades across trading and launchpad experiences
  • Launch of the LiveArt Collector Program — a first-of-its-kind rewards system for shaping onchain culture

The art market is going on-chain.
With the launch of our trading platform and cultural RWA offerings, LiveArt is leading that shift — one fraction at a time.
