Physical gold meets blockchain technology — regulated, transparent, accessible from 1 gram. The first tokenized gold product licensed under Armenia's Law on Crypto-Assets.
Gold represents a $12 trillion global market, yet the vast majority of retail investors are effectively locked out by high costs, illiquidity, opacity, and large minimums.
Every XAUE token is backed 1:1 by one gram of LBMA 999.9% fine gold, held in sovereign custody and redeemable at any time.
