**What is Kinesis gold (KAU)?**

Kinesis gold (KAU) is a gold-backed digital currency launched by Kinesis, a global trading and digital asset utility platform. Each Kinesis gold (KAU) token is backed by one gram of investment-grade gold bullion, securely stored in Kinesis’ fully insured, audited vaults.


The mission behind KAU is to reintroduce physical gold as money and provide the global community with a stable store of value. By combining the key features of digital assets, Kinesis gold offers physical, fully-allocated, non-fiat-based assets that operate outside of traditional financial infrastructure. All gold backing KAU is recorded on a transparent and immutable blockchain ledger and stored in secure, audited vaults - with the purchaser as the legal title owner of the metal.

KAU enables physical gold bullion to be instantly purchased, traded, spent and sent anywhere in the world, bringing real-world access, value, and utility to physical precious metals. Kinesis gold also serves as a true stablecoin, enabling traders to exit more volatile markets into the time-proven value of precious metals. 

**What makes KAU unique?**

In an economic first, KAU holders earned the first debt-free yield on precious metals. All KAU holders receive a passive yield - paid monthly in KAU - simply for holding their metals on the Kinesis platform. The yield is calculated from a 15% share of Kinesis’ global transaction fee revenue which is shared with users who store their gold on the platform. At the time of writing, Kinesis has paid out over $3,000,000 to KAU holders. 

Unlike other gold tokens, KAU can be instantly spent, globally, with the Kinesis Virtual Card. Accessible via mobile device, the virtual card lets people everywhere instantly convert their KAU holdings into the local currency at the point of sale, anywhere Mastercard is accepted. Through digitalising physical gold in the form of KAU, Kinesis is reintroducing gold as a currency.


**Who are the creators of KAU?**

Kinesis gold (KAU) was launched by Kinesis. Founded in 2018, the Kinesis platform facilitates the exchange, management and monetary application of native physical gold and silver-based digital assets and cryptocurrency.
Kinesis’ strategic partner Allocated Bullion Exchange (ABX), a global institutional allocated precious metals exchange, facilitates the vaulting of all underlying physical gold and silver. With over 10 years in the industry, ABX brings its extensive vaulting network and precious metals trading experience to facilitate the trade and management of physical precious metals on a global scale. 	

**Can I redeem my gold?**

Every single gram of gold underpinning KAU is available for redemption on the Kinesis platform. While other gold-backed digital currencies offer redemption, they often set very high minimum withdrawal limits, making redemption difficult for everyday investors. KAU holders, however, can redeem as little as 100 grams of the underlying gold bullion their KAU is based on, with redemption costs among the lowest in the industry.

**How many KAU are in circulation?**

The number of coins constantly fluctuates as new investors can mint new KAU and introduce more KAU into the system. You can find the live figure of KAU and KAU in circulation on the Kinesis explorer.

**Where can I buy KAU?**

KAU and KAG (silver) can be purchased on the Kinesis platform and external crypto exchanges. It’s important to remember that only KAU held or traded on the Kinesis platform is instantly spendable and eligible for a monthly yield.

Tether Gold (XAU₮) is a stablecoin that provides ownership on a 1:1 basis of one fine troy ounce of gold on a physical bar of gold that meets the Good Delivery standard of the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA). This technology allows access to a stablecoin that provides ownership of physical gold while avoiding the drawbacks associated with physical gold, such as high storage cost and limited accessibility.
Note: XAU₮ tokens can be fractionated up to six decimal places (i.e. in increments as small as 0.000001 troy fine ounce).

MultiversX is a blockchain protocol that seeks to offer extremely fast transaction speeds by using sharding. The project describes itself as a technology ecosystem for the new internet, which includes fintech, decentralized finance and the Internet of Things. Its smart contracts execution platform is reportedly capable of 15,000 transactions per second, six-second latency and a $0.001 transaction cost.

MultiversX rewards the community and active participants with EGLD tokens. EGLD, or Electronic Gold, is MultiversX's native token. It acts as a store of value currency to pay for network usage. The coin also serves as a medium of exchange between platform users and validators. Users pay transaction fees in EGLD and validators provide services.

EGLD allows developers to deploy smart contracts, protocols, and dApps on the platform. It empowers participants to perform any network action. Through staking and validation rewards, as well as transaction fees, EGLD manages the MultiversX network. Plus, EGLD is endowed with the functionality of a governance token, so its holders can vote on network decisions.

MultiversX was first announced in August 2019, and its mainnet went live in July 2020.

Pax Gold (PAXG) is a gold-backed cryptocurrency, launched by the creators of Paxos Standard (PAX) in September 2019. As an ERC-20 token operating on the Ethereum blockchain, Pax Gold is tradeable on a large variety of exchanges and has become an accessible way for traders to start investing in gold.

The main goal behind Pax Gold is to make gold more tradable, as the physical commodity is not easily divisible or flexible in terms of transport. This is why Paxos Standard decided to create a cryptocurrency entirely backed by gold. According to the official whitepaper, Pax Gold was created to allow investors to buy indefinitely small amounts of gold through the cryptocurrency, thus virtually eliminating minimum buy limits for the commodity.
