The registry
From issuance to verification
Four recorded steps. Every transition is signed, timestamped, and anchored.
-
01
Issuance
A partner gallery records the work, uploads evidence, and signs the certificate request — ArtLink mints the ArtPass.
-
02
Anchoring
Passes are batched hourly and hashed to a public blockchain — tamper-evident, not secret.
-
03
Transfer
When the work sells, the pass travels with it — the buyer claims it into their vault, history intact.
-
04
Verification
Anyone — buyer, institution, insurer — resolves the handle and reads the full record, gaps included.
Four doors, one registry
Built for every side of the trade
Each role gets its own console — scoped, audited, and permissioned to exactly what it should see.
Public verification
Check any ArtPass, anonymously
Every certificate carries a handle. Resolve it here — no account, no tracking. You'll see the issuer, evidence level, current status, and every gap stated plainly.
Consistent ≠ authentic — results state evidence, never verdicts.
