Global Gold - The On-Chain Gold Ecosystem

Cole Chapman is the Co-Founder of Global Gold.  Cole is leading the tokenization of gold, creating a global liquidity layer that enables fractional ownership, on-chain liquidity, and collateralized lending. Why you should listen Global Gold is a blockchain-based financial protocol focused on bridging traditional gold markets with decentralized finance (DeFi). It enables the creation of digital tokens that are fully backed by physical gold, offering users the ability to own, trade, and utilize gold-backed digital assets on-chain. The platform issues "Global Gold Bars" — tokenized representations of specific weights of physical gold — that can be used similarly to stablecoins, providing a digital alternative to gold ownership with on-chain transparency and liquidity. Each token is designed to represent a verifiable and redeemable claim on real, audited gold stored in secure vaults. Global Gold's infrastructure also includes a decentralized exchange for trading gold-backed assets and an integrated vault management system that tracks provenance, audits, and insurance in real time.   The company's vaulting and custody operations are centered in a 70,000-square-foot, Class 3 facility located in Casper, Wyoming, which it describes as an institutional-grade site for high-value asset storage. Global Gold emphasizes compliance, transparency, and security by working with third-party auditors — Alfred H. Knight and FORVIS — to conduct regular, independent verification of its gold reserves. These audits are complemented by full insurance coverage to protect stored assets, and all reserves are claimed to be 100% physically backed and legally segregated from corporate holdings. The platform positions its tokenized gold as a bridge between traditional asset stability and blockchain liquidity, providing users with the ability to move, trade, or collateralize gold holdings instantly while maintaining full physical backing and regulatory oversight.
