Streamex Corporation debuts yield-generating GLDY tokenized gold asset

Streamex Corporation (STEX) debuted GLDY, a tokenized gold asset that pairs holding gold with generating yield. Structured on a 1:1 gold model, the token provides an annualized yield of up to 4% with monthly payments in gold. The return comes from gold leasing with Monetary Metals.

The token now trades on Streamex Corporation’s online platform and is supplied to eligible investors, subject to regulatory compliance. As part of its program, the initiative also included Chainlink Proof of Reserve for transparency and data validation. 

There were over $100 million in indications of interest for GLDY

STEX had more than $100 million in interest disclosures before the token launch. Ideally, the fund was specifically designed to attract high-net-worth and ultra-wealthy investors who wish to preserve capital and earn returns.

Henry McPhie, Chief Executive Officer of Streamex, said before the GLDY launch that the program intends to preserve gold’s physical integrity while providing returns for its customers.

He argued that, in the past, though gold was a crucial financial tool, it had always been passive, and GLDY helps change that. The company also anticipates that the token will be the centerpiece of its expanding commodity tokenization platform, alongside upcoming digital asset initiatives.

So far, EisnerAmper is responsible for auditing and gold attestations, and Zedra serves as the fund’s administrator. Meanwhile, Anchorage Digital Bank, Coinbase Prime, and tZERO. Counsel to the Fund includes Walkers, Chapman Cutler, and Croke Fairchild Duarte & Beres.

Tokenized gold trading takes off

In December last year, Standard Chartered’s Libeara launched its own tokenized gold investment in Singapore. The platform partnered with FundBridge Capital for the project.

Furthermore, Asia’s leading real-world asset platform, Matrixdock, under the Matrixport Group, expanded in February to the Solana network, launching its gold-backed token, XAUm. Currently, XAUm tokens circulating on the network consist of one troy ounce of 99.99% pure gold (LBMA-accredited), securely stored and subject to independent audit.

At the same time, Arowana, which is backed by Hancom Group, is set to launch its gold tokenization platform on Arbitrum, one of Ethereum’s leading Layer 2 networks.
