Immutable

Arx secure chips don't require centralized servers to authenticate an item. Like NFTs, provenance lives onchain -- forever.

Composable

Build custom experiences for each drop using our open source libraries and templates -- or bring your own platform. Our tools make it easy to deploy directly to decentralized storage.

Powerful

HaLo chips sign messages and transactions like hardware wallets. Integrate chips directly into existing protocols, dapps and standards like the PBT.

We worked with Transient Labs to integrate our chips into T.R.A.C.E., a system of smart contracts and hardware to provide a digital Certificate of Authenticity (dCOA) backed by the blockchain for physical art or assets.

T.R.A.C.E. stores additional provenance, such as sales, alterations, exhibitions, and more, on the blockchain through T.R.A.C.E. Records. These records utilize the Story Inscriptions technology developed by Transient Labs.

HaLo chips are embedded under temper resistant certificates and securely fastened to the authenticated artwork. T.R.A.C.E. pieces have been featured at auction houses such as Christie's.
