HUG has been partners with .ART over the past year, and our work together has made clear how complementary .ART is to the HUG community and vice versa. With over 400,000 domains registered in 170+ countries and an active community of over 260,000 users, .ART serves a diverse community of creatives, artists, museums, businesses, and brands passionate about the arts, and brings a robust ecosystem and expertise in supporting artists’ business needs.
Combined with .ART's comprehensive toolkit for artists that includes digital identity, provenance tracking, intellectual property, collection management, and expanded tools for promotion, we realized that a joining the .ART family represented a unique opportunity to take everything we've built at HUG to the next level.
Following this acquisition, all HUG users will gain access to .ART's full suite of offerings, with additional features to come in 2025. We are confident that this will further support an artist’s creative journey in both the traditional and crypto art world, leading to significant growth of the HUG community.&nbsp;
