TrustLink leverages IoT devices integrated with cryptographic signing capabilities to link real-world assets to their digital counterparts on a blockchain.

When a new asset is to be registered, IoT sensors capture essential data points (e.g., location, temperature for art, ownership signatures) and generate a unique identifier with cryptographic proof.

These identifiers are validated through a decentralized network of nodes using zero-knowledge proofs to ensure data integrity without exposing unnecessary asset details.

The system creates a verifiable 'digital twin' of the physical asset, enabling tracking, verification, and trading on blockchain platforms without needing a central authority.

TrustLink removes the reliance on central authorities by ensuring asset authenticity through decentralized cryptographic proof.

This enhances user trust and facilitates smoother integration of physical assets into digital ecosystems, unlocking wider market participation and transparency.

The solution leverages mature technologies such as IoT, blockchain, and cryptography, making it technically feasible.

Key challenges include ensuring secure IoT deployments, interoperability across jurisdictions, and aligning with regulatory standards which vary globally.
