Institutional adoption of digital art is continuing to accelerate as blockchain technology reshapes how cultural assets are created, traded, and preserved. Among blockchain ecosystems, Tezos has emerged as one of the strongest and most established networks for digital art, supported by leading marketplaces such as objkt.com and a globally recognized creator community. Now, secure, regulated custodial infrastructure has become essential for professional collectors, galleries, and institutions entering the space.

Blockfort, a Swiss-based digital asset custodian established in January 2025, provides institutional-grade storage, -staking, and crypto trading solutions. Built with security as its core priority, Blockfort operates under robust compliance standards, providing its clients with peace of mind when it comes to safeguarding their digital assets.

Since 2021, the Tezos blockchain has become a leading platform for art and is home to a vibrant creator ecosystem. Supported by the Tezos Foundation, which promotes the long-term development and adoption of the protocol, the network has seen continued growth in major art initiatives and partnerships. Platforms such as objkt.com have helped establish Tezos as a culturally significant and technically mature environment for NFT-based digital art.

“Blockchain-based art is a rapidly growing medium and collectors and institutions are beginning to realise the importance of securing their digital artworks. Tezos has earned its reputation as the leading blockchain for artists and creators, and until now institutional participants have lacked the regulated, secure infrastructure to engage with it confidently. Our Swiss Digital Art Fortress is designed specifically to change that — giving collectors, institutions and galleries the peace of mind they need to keep their art safe for future generations,” said Roman Schnider, CEO of Blockfort.

Through its collaboration with the Tezos Foundation, Blockfort now enables secure NFT storage on Tezos via its newly launched Digital Art Fortress in Switzerland. Designed specifically for institutional participants, the solution combines a Swiss-regulated custody infrastructure, advanced security architecture, and audited operational controls. Blockfort’s online platform allows clients to store, visualize and manage their digital artworks. In line with its advanced suite of services, Blockfort also provides a white-glove NFT minting service, designed to guide creators who are new to the blockchain space through the process of minting their work on the blockchain. Together, these elements position Blockfort’s Digital Art Fortress as one of the most robust and institutionally suited storage solutions for high-value digital art assets.
