A few days ago Codex, a decentralized registry for art and collectibles, opened public beta access to it's Codex Viewer dApp .

Codex stores an item’s identity securely on the blockchain as a Codex Record. To buy or sell, get insurance, or take out a loan, previous owners, history and authenticity are constantly checked and verified.

Codex Protocol and Currency

The Codex protocol uses a new cryptocurrency called CodexCoin to manage all this.

CodexCoin (CODX) is used to access, modify and verify the data stored on Codex Records, among other uses. There are already auction houses, lenders, appraisers, and fractional ownership companies who have announced plans to use CodexCoin.

The've also build an app called Biddable, that lets you use cryptocurrency to buy collectibles at an auction. It is the first app built on top of Codex, but there are plenty more apps to be launched using the Codex Protocol, "from appraisals and insurance to securitisation and asset backed lending."

Free digital Art

To celebrate the beta-launch of the Codex Viewer, they're giving away 1000 editions of a digital collage by Sebastian Tory-Pratt called “Digital Assembly” for free.
