# What is Artinals?

**Artinals** is a set of Move modules designed to manage, trade, and interact with a new class of NFTs on the Sui blockchain. The name "Artinals" suggests a focus on digital art collectibles—unique items (NFTs) that can represent artworks, digital collectibles, or other tokenized assets. These NFTs can be minted, held, sold, transferred, and traded with various levels of customization and control. Artinals aims to provide a comprehensive solution for creators, traders, and collectors, offering robust functionalities such as deny lists, metadata updates, batch operations, and integration with external price oracles and APIs.

In essence, Artinals leverages the power of the Move language and the Sui blockchain to bring a flexible, secure, and scalable system for NFT management and marketplace operations.
