GEM NFTs in detail

GEM NFTs (Globally Exchanged Metal Non-Fungible Tokens) are digital tokens that represent actual physical gold bars or coins. Each GEM NFT corresponds to a specific amount of 24-carat gold stored securely in a vault. For instance, a GEM1000 token stands for 1000 grams of gold.


Key Benefits of GEM NFTs:

  • No Extra Fees: Unlike traditional gold ownership, GEM NFTs come without storage, insurance, or management fees for the first 3 years, making gold ownership more affordable.

  • Physical Redemption: Holders can redeem their GEM NFTs for the actual gold they represent 12 months after minting, ensuring the digital token has real-world value.

  • Traceable and Ethical Sourcing: All gold linked to GEM NFTs is fully traceable back to its original mine, ensuring it meets international ethical standards.

  • Potential Rewards: GEM NFT owners may receive annual loyalty rewards in the form of additional physical gold, turning gold into an asset that can provide returns over time.

GEM NFTs are part of the IPMB Ecosystem, which also includes the GoldPro Token (GPRO). By holding and staking GPROs, users can unlock up to an 11% discount when acquiring GEM NFTs, effectively allowing them to purchase gold below market rates.

GEM NFTs offer a modern, cost-effective, and transparent way to own and manage physical gold through digital means.

Due to newly imposed regulatory changes and updated requirements by the Government of Ghana regarding the purchase, sale, and export of gold, the minting of new GEM tokens has been suspended. As a result of these regulatory developments and the increased compliance obligations related to precious metals, further conversions to GEM will not be possible until further notice. This action is taken in accordance with the GEM NFT Specific Risks disclosure (refer to the Policy) as well as applicable Ghanaian and international laws.
