About LMAu

LMAu is a revolutionary digital token meticulously designed to bridge the traditional stability of physical gold with the transparency, efficiency, and global accessibility of blockchain technology. Each LMAu token represents a direct legal title to one gram of fine physical gold (99.99% purity), stored securely in fully insured, high-security vaults managed by world-class custodians.

The creation of LMAu addresses key challenges inherent in traditional gold ownership such as illiquidity, high transaction costs, difficulties in secure storage, and limitations in divisibility. Through digital innovation, LMAu offers a seamless, liquid, and verifiable mechanism to own and transfer the value of gold globally.

We built LMAu on the following foundational principles:

1:1 Full Physical Gold Backing – Each LMAu token equals one gram of 99.99% pure gold, independently audited and securely vaulted.
Radical Transparency – Regular public reporting and third-party audits verify the gold reserves and token circulation.
Robust Physical and Digital Security – World-class vaulting combined with smart contract audits on blockchain infrastructure.
Liquidity and Accessibility – 24/7 trading capability via exchanges and peer-to-peer transfers on blockchain networks.
Genuine Redeemability – Eligible holders can redeem tokens for LBMA Good Delivery gold bars following defined procedures.

The LMAu Token

The LMAu token is a fully standardized ERC-20 asset operating on the Ethereum blockchain, ensuring maximum compatibility across wallets, exchanges, and decentralized applications. It offers users seamless and secure access to digital gold ownership.

Token holders benefit from the ability to store, transfer, and trade gold value globally with precision down to the smallest fractional ownership, enabled by 18 decimal places of divisibility.

Gold Reserve & Custody

All physical gold backing LMAu tokens is stored in fully insured, high-security vaults located in the UAE and Kyrgyz Republic. These vaults are operated by internationally recognized custodians specializing in precious metal storage and security.

The gold meets the highest standards, maintaining a minimum purity of 99.99%, sourced from LBMA-accredited refiners. Allocated and segregated storage structures ensure that each gram of gold is directly assigned to LMAu reserves, separate from other assets held by the custodian.

Allocated Storage – Specific bars assigned to LMAu holdings.
Segregated Accounts – No commingling with other clients' gold.
Insurance – Comprehensive coverage against theft, damage, and loss.
Independent Custodians – Reducing operational and counterparty risks.

Transparency & Auditing

LMAu is committed to radical transparency. We implement a dual-layer verification system combining real-time reporting with independent, third-party audits. This ensures that every LMAu token in circulation remains fully backed by physical gold reserves.

Public Proof-of-Reserves – Regular updates of gold holdings accessible to all.
Third-Party Independent Audits – Annual verifications conducted by leading audit firms specializing in commodities.
Full Reconciliation – Gold weight and token supply matched precisely in audit reports.

Audit results are published openly on the LMAu website for maximum accountability.

Minting/Burning

The integrity of LMAu is ensured through strict minting and burning mechanisms tied directly to the physical gold reserve.

Minting – New LMAu tokens are minted only when verified physical gold is securely added to the reserve. Each newly minted token reflects one gram of new gold acquired and deposited.
Burning – When holders redeem LMAu for physical gold, an equivalent number of tokens are permanently destroyed, and the corresponding gold is withdrawn from the reserve.

This ensures that the token supply always matches the total audited gold holdings on a 1:1 basis.
