Lifecycle: subscription → KYC/AML screening → funding → mint → quarterly distribution → redemption & burn.
Token Model
XAUg is a mine-backed gold rights token; the ecosystem also plans a G-Hash deflationary dividend token (see official docs).
Face Value
1 XAUg = 0.01g gold (~$1.49 / ¥9.99); 18 decimals on-chain.
Two Tiers (Proposed)
XAUg-Y (qualified investors): discounted subscription · 5% p.a. · 24-month lock; retail early-bird ~20% off.
Delivery Claim
A delivery claim on LBMA-standard refined gold (≥99.99%), not the physical bar.
5% p.a.: Disclose the Source Honestly
Physical gold's real yield is only the gold lease rate of 1%–2%; major gold tokens (PAXG, XAUT, CGO, XAUm, AWG, CGT) are all zero-coupon. XAUg's 5% can only come from mine operating surplus, carries mine-operating risk, and must be disclosed plainly — never packaged as "gold naturally yields".
