In this partnership, Kresus explained it will provide 1-of-1 digital certificates for 132 lots in Christie’s photography sale, held on Oct. 2 at Rockefeller Center. These certificates, built on the Base blockchain by Coinbase, will offer buyers a secure, immutable record of ownership. The move is part of a pilot program aiming to modernize art authentication using blockchain technology.

Trevor Traina, the founder of Kresus and a collector, emphasized that this system eliminates the need for traditional paper-based documentation, offering a secure digital solution. “Blockchain enables many things. As an art collector, I am well aware of the burden of managing and maintaining provenance and proper documentation- often in paper form and in file cabinets,” Traina remarked.

Christie’s representative, Nicole Sales Giles, noted that this initiative is a step toward improving transparency and authenticity in the art world through technology integration. “Working with Kresus to offer blockchain-based certificates of ownership is a natural evolution of our commitment to authenticity and transparency in the art world. This pilot program is an exciting step forward for the integration of art and technology,” Giles stated.

The auction includes works by post-war and contemporary artists, including Diane Arbus and Cindy Sherman. While the focus remains on the art, Kresus’ digital certificates aim to offer a forward-looking solution to the longstanding challenge of verifying and maintaining art ownership records.
