Friends,
a token or coin is issued that
represents a value of gold (for example 1 gram of gold equals 1 coin). The gram
of gold is stored by a trusted custodian (preferably third party), and can be
traded with other coin holders. Some countries starting with Kyrgyzstan in central Asia
plan to issue their own national cryptocurrencies backed by gold. If
the cryptocurrency becomes popular then the price of the coin can potentially
increase in value, greater than the value of gold. Much more mainstream is the UK’s Royal Mint, the
government institution responsible for producing all the physical money the
country has for circulation, which has announced the launch of its own gold-backed
cryptocurrency. It is a Blockchain-based coin called Royal Mint Gold (RMG), is a digital representation
of gold. Thus, the key question for investors and researchers alike is simply
this: Will gold-backed currencies outperform other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin,
Ethereum, Litecoin, etc.? Send
