Catenaa, Saturday, February 28, 2026- Public Masterpiece, a Cyprus-based tokenization company, has announced PMT Chain, a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain designed to support real-world asset certification and tokenization.
The company also repositioned its PMT brand to stand for Public Masterpiece Technology.
PMT Chain targets museums, galleries, private collectors, and global brands, providing on-chain authentication and certification of physical assets such as artwork, collectibles, and historical items.
The network’s Certification Hub, based in the UAE, will employ evaluators, art experts, and historians to ensure provenance, combat forgery, and prevent illegal trafficking.
The blockchain has been under development for seven years, including five years dedicated to research and development, reflecting a long-term infrastructure approach rather than rapid-launch hype common in the crypto sector.
PMT Chain is also designed to support real estate tokenization and broader real-world asset deployment, along with white-label solutions for institutional integration.
Public Masterpiece reported strong recent performance, noting a 75% increase in PMT token value over the past year, outperforming 86% of the top 100 crypto assets.
Several governments are reportedly in discussions about adopting PMT Chain, though no launch date has been announced.
CEO Kamran Arki emphasized the focus on trust and long-term value: “PMT Chain was built for real-world value and long-term trust.
Museums, collectors, and brands need transparency, security, and permanence.”
COO Garen Mehrabian added that the platform is intended to make blockchain systems understandable and reliable for mass adoption.
Public Masterpiece positions PMT Chain as a foundational infrastructure layer for the next era of blockchain adoption, moving beyond speculation toward practical, verifiable utility.
