Mattereum Asset Passport
A Signed Copy of "Fire in the Nuts"

This is a Mattereum Asset Passport. It is used to prove the value of physical objects. The physical objects are usually stored in a vault and bound to an Ethereum blockchain NFT. The Mattereum Asset Passport is made of a series of signed legal statements about the valuable attributes of the physical object. In most cases, you can buy a legal warranty on these legal statements, protecting you in case of error or fraud.

Disputes are heard using special legal procedures, suitable for resolving disputes of these kinds, made binding under the 1958 New York Convention on Arbitration.
