A note for a quantity of metal.
You hold a claim on the company for the quantity the note names. The dollar figure moves with the metal price. The note is not cash, and it is not title to metal in the vault.
A note that names a quantity of gold or silver the company owes you. The dollar figure moves with the metal price, down as well as up.
Not at a terminal. A debit card is not available. The note can be sent to another Solana wallet. That is not a payment card.
Notes already sold are standard Solana tokens. Any wallet can send them, and that send is free. Our in-app send flow is coming soon.
Not available today. A note is not a way to invoice or take payment.

Sound money, priced better.
Buy gold from a dealer, you pay a big markup. Buy a gold ETF, you pay every year and never actually own any gold. With Obsidian, you pay almost nothing, and it's real gold, yours, always.
*A small protocol fee, about 0.25%, applies when you mint. Sending is free.
Built to an institutional standard. Simple enough for anyone.
Every unit issued is recorded on Solana. Circulation is public and can be checked at any time.
Settlement on Solana finalizes in under a second. No multi-day bank holds.
Plugs into the wallets and apps you already use.
The company holds metal with Alpine Gold Exchange. That metal is the company's. Your note is the company's obligation for the quantity it names.
Obsidian does not hold a bank charter. This product is not bank-regulated, and it is not insured like a bank deposit.
Physical delivery is not available yet. When it is, the note you hold is still a claim for the quantity of metal it names.
Questions, answered.
What metals are supported?+
Gold and silver bullion, US legal-tender gold and silver coins, and Goldbacks.
What does one unit of each asset represent, and why?+
Each ticker has a whole-unit denomination matched to how that metal is used and priced. You can hold fractions on Solana. Unit price tracks the fraction, not a full ounce, unless the unit is one ounce.
- xGLDB · Goldbacks
- What1 unit = 1 Goldback, about 1/1000 troy oz gold
- WhyThe unit is one Goldback, a small quantity of gold the note names
- xGLDD · US Gold Coins
- What1 unit = 1 Gold Dollar, about 1/50 of a 1 troy oz US gold coin (about 0.02 ozt)
- WhyA full 1 oz coin prices in the thousands; the 1/50 unit keeps checkout approachable
- Redeem50 whole units line up with one full 1 oz coin when physical redemption is available
- xSLVD · US Silver Coins
- What1 unit = 1 US silver dollar coin
- WhySame coin-line idea as gold: everyday purchase size, not a full bar
- RedeemExact troy-oz fraction for redemption will be published with AGX once locked
- xGOLD / xSLVR · Bars
- WhatWhen those notes ship, 1 whole unit = 1 troy oz gold or silver bullion
- WhyBars are priced per troy ounce, so one whole unit is one troy ounce
- RedeemFuture physical redemption targets a 1 oz bar
Checkout mints a digital note. Physical delivery is a later redemption step, not part of buy.
What stands behind Obsidian?+
The company holds metal with Alpine Gold Exchange (AGX). Your note is the company's obligation for the quantity it names. You do not own Alpine's inventory, and you do not have an Alpine account because you hold a note.
Can I redeem physical metal?+
Not yet. When redemption is available, the note you hold is a claim for the quantity of metal it names, on the same terms as any note. Buying and holding are available now.
Can I spend it?+
Not as a payment card. The note can be sent to another Solana wallet. Spending it at a terminal is not available.
Why Solana?+
A transfer between wallets settles on Solana, so it is fast and the network fee is small. The note is still a claim on the company, not cash.
Who can use it today?+
