Gold bar vs AufortGold®
 |
More secure |
You don’t need to worry about where to keep your gold – we’ll do it for you in a secure vault that meets international standards. |
 |
Cheaper |
You can buy AufortGold at the world market price of gold. Until you decide to withdraw the physical gold bar, the costs of producing your desired bars and all transport costs will be postponed. |
 |
More flexible |
AufortGold can be bought and sold at the world gold market price. Whenever you wish, you may make withdrawals in either cash or real gold, even if the latter is as small as a single gram. |
 |
Faster |
AufortGold may be bought and sold in just minutes without having to wait for delivery. And when selling gold back, you don’t have to take it anywhere – transact it conveniently and digitally at a time and place of your choosing. |
 |
Greener |
Your gold does not need to be transported, causing additional CO2 to pollute the environment. Also, the technology used by Aufort (directed acyclic graph (DAG) - Obyte) is significantly more environmentally friendly than traditional blockchain technology (proof of work (PoW), i.e., Bitcoin). |
How does AufortGold® work?
AufortGold is 999.9 proof physical (allocated) investment gold, stored in secured vaults in Austria and Estonia which comply with high international security standards. The gold is 100% insured and the vaults are audited twice per year by recognized and independent auditors.
To increase transparency and reliability even more, Aufort uses distributed ledger technology – Obyte. This is a digital certificate that verifies the gold’s existence and ownership. With this solution, clients can easily check the amount of gold in their accounts and vault, and monitor any transactions.
