What is PAX Gold?
Nowadays, the term "digital gold" has ceased to amaze anyone. One of those who helped it to become a reality was the Paxos Trust Company. It created an ERC-20 token called PAX Gold (PAXG) based on the Ethereum blockchain. Since the token is built in this way, it can interact with many services, wallets, or exchanges that integrate the ETH protocol.
Paxos claims PAXG is the safest way to possess customers’ gold. After all, the whole trick lies in the fact that by having tokens a person has physical, real gold. This gold is stored in the Brink’s vaults. One fine troy ounce of London Good Delivery gold bar equates to one PAXG token. Unlike some other cryptocurrencies, which do not depend on the value of other assets, such tokens as PAXG are asset-backed tokens and 100% tied to the price of the precious metal. PAX Gold offers all its users the opportunity to own gold bars with the same mobility and speed as any digital asset can offer.
For the convenience of all token holders, the company provides an opportunity to freely convert them into dedicated gold, unallocated gold, fiat (or vice versa). Moreover, at the same time, it reduces their exposure to calculated risk.
