Poland’s second-largest bank has used the Aleph Zero L1 blockchain to tokenize and preserve internationally renowned Polish artworks. The artworks will be stored digitally in the Arctic World Archive (AWA).

波兰第二大银行使用 Aleph Zero L1 区块链来标记和保存国际知名的波兰艺术品。这些艺术品将以数字方式存储在北极世界档案馆（AWA）中。

Bank Pekao, Aleph Zero, and Degen House are proud to announce the launch of Archiv3, a project to tokenize and preserve Polish cultural heritage on the Aleph Zero blockchain, with digital reproductions securely stored in the Arctic World Archive (AWA). This initiative combines blockchain technology with a commitment to cultural preservation, ensuring the safekeeping of Poland’s artistic legacy for future generations.

Bank Pekao、Aleph Zero 和 Degen House 自豪地宣布推出 Archiv3，该项目旨在在 Aleph Zero 区块链上对波兰文化遗产进行代币化和保存，并将数字复制品安全地存储在北极世界档案馆 (AWA) 中。该举措将区块链技术与文化保护承诺相结合，确保为子孙后代保管波兰的艺术遗产。

With Archiv3, Bank Pekao becomes the first universal bank to tokenize historical art specifically for preservation purposes. This initiative follows the bank’s earlier “Unique” project, marking its role in integrating blockchain technology with traditional banking. It also highlights the bank’s ongoing commitment to modernizing its services and expanding the reach of digital assets. Notably, Archiv3 is the first project to tokenize artworks for long-term storage in the Arctic World Archive, known as the “Doomsday Library.”

凭借 Archiv3，Bank Pekao 成为第一家专门出于保存目的对历史艺术品进行代币化的全能银行。这一举措是继该银行早期的“Unique”项目之后，标志着其在将区块链技术与传统银行业务相结合方面发挥的作用。它还强调了该银行对服务现代化和扩大数字资产范围的持续承诺。值得注意的是，Archiv3 是第一个将艺术品代币化以长期存储在北极世界档案馆（被称为“世界末日图书馆”）的项目。

In its press release, Bank Pekao pointed out that the deciding factor in using the Aleph Zero blockchain has been not only its speed and security but also its attention to optimizing for a low carbon footprint and its carbon offset program.

Pekao 银行在新闻稿中指出，使用 Aleph Zero 区块链的决定性因素不仅在于其速度和安全性，还在于其对优化低碳足迹及其碳抵消计划的关注。

“We have chosen Aleph Zero for their privacy-focused, top-class technology combined with sound experience in cooperation with large institutions,” says Michał Walęczak, Director of the Private Banking Strategy and Development Department at Bank Pekao S.A. “Minimal carbon footprint as well as low storage costs were also important factors in our decision-making process. Tokenization of art requires modern and flexible technology, unforced creativity and some out-of-the-box thinking; these features we were happy to find in co-operation with Aleph Zero.”

Bank Pekao SA 私人银行战略与发展部总监 Michał Walęczak 表示：“我们选择 Aleph Zero 是因为他们注重隐私、一流的技术以及与大型机构合作的丰富经验。”因为低存储成本也是我们决策过程中的重要因素。艺术的代币化需要现代灵活的技术、非强迫性的创造力和一些创造性的思维；我们很高兴与 Aleph Zero 合作发现这些功能。”

ARCHIV3 involves the meticulous digitization of masterpieces from iconic Polish artists, such as Jan Matejko, Stanisław Wyspiański, Wojciech Kossak, and others, facilitated by Degen House, the bank’s technological partner, who also managed the Aleph Zero integration. The process began with the creation of high-quality, museum-grade 3D scans using ultra-sensitive cameras, which capture every detail of the original artworks. These digital replicas were then minted as NFTs on the eco-friendly Aleph Zero blockchain, which ensures minimal carbon footprint during the process. The tokenized versions are subsequently archived in the Arctic World Archive, where they are expected to remain secure for at least 1,000 years.

ARCHIV3 涉及对 Jan Matejko、Stanisław Wyspiański、Wojciech Kossak 等波兰标志性艺术家的杰作进行细致的数字化处理，并由该银行的技术合作伙伴 Degen House 协助，Degen House 还负责管理 Aleph Zero 集成。该过程首先使用超灵敏相机创建高质量的博物馆级 3D 扫描，捕捉原始艺术品的每一个细节。然后，这些数字复制品在环保的 Aleph Zero 区块链上被铸造为 NFT，从而确保在此过程中最小化碳足迹。代币化版本随后将被存档在北极世界档案馆中，预计它们将安全保存至少 1000 年。

The artworks in the Archiv3 collection span a range of historical periods, primarily featuring 19th-century works and select modern pieces, such as those by contemporary artist Lia Kimura. This initiative aims to preserve these treasures not only for their cultural and historical significance but also as a resource for future study, conservation, and potential virtual exhibitions.

Archiv3 收藏的艺术品跨越了一系列历史时期，主要包括 19 世纪的作品和精选的现代作品，例如当代艺术家 Lia Kimura 的作品。该倡议旨在保护这些宝藏，不仅是因为它们具有文化和历史意义，而且也是未来研究、保护和潜在虚拟展览的资源。

Preserving Art for Future Generations

为子孙后代保护艺术

The Arctic World Archive, located on the remote Svalbard archipelago, serves as a highly secure data vault designed to protect invaluable cultural, historical, and scientific information from natural disasters, cyber threats, and other risks. Established in 2017, the archive uses advanced storage technology to ensure data longevity without the need for electricity or human intervention, making it one of the safest places in the world for preserving irreplaceable records.

北极世界档案馆位于偏远的斯瓦尔巴群岛，是一个高度安全的数据库，旨在保护宝贵的文化、历史和科学信息免受自然灾害、网络威胁和其他风险的影响。该档案馆成立于 2017 年，采用先进的存储技术来确保数据的长期保存，无需电力或人工干预，使其成为世界上保存不可替代记录的最安全的地方之一。

The AWA already houses manuscripts from the Vatican Library, documentation from UNESCO and UNICEF, the entire GitHub code repository, as well as literary works by Nobel Prize laureates Olga Tokarczuk and Wisława Szymborska. Bank Pekao is the first financial institution to archive culturally significant artworks at the AWA, while doing the same using decentralized storage, setting a precedent for how blockchain technology can be used to bridge traditional art with new digital solutions.

AWA 已经收藏了梵蒂冈图书馆的手稿、联合国教科文组织和联合国儿童基金会的文档、整个 GitHub 代码存储库，以及诺贝尔奖获得者奥尔加·托卡尔丘克和维斯瓦瓦·辛波斯卡的文学作品。 Bank Pekao 是第一家在 AWA 存档具有文化意义的艺术品的金融机构，同时使用去中心化存储进行同样的操作，为如何使用区块链技术将传统艺术与新的数字解决方案联系起来开创了先例。
