General Questions
What is Aetherix Gold?
−
Aetherix Gold is a platform that tokenizes real-world assets into gold-backed digital tokens called AXG. Each AXG token represents 1 gram of physical gold, providing stability and real value. The platform allows users to mint, trade, borrow, and earn yields from tokenized assets including real estate, vehicles, art, patents, and more.
How is AXG different from other tokens?
+
Unlike most crypto tokens that are purely speculative, AXG is backed by both physical gold AND real-world assets. This dual backing provides unprecedented stability and intrinsic value. Each AXG token is permanently pegged to 1 gram of gold, while also representing fractional ownership in tokenized real-world assets.
Is AXG a security?
+
We are working with top legal counsel to ensure full regulatory compliance. AXG is designed as a utility token for the Aetherix platform, not as a security. A formal legal opinion will be published prior to mainnet launch. Our goal is to operate within all applicable regulations globally.
What is the gold peg mechanism?
+
1 AXG is permanently pegged to 1 gram of physical gold. The price is maintained through Chainlink oracles that provide real-time gold pricing, combined with arbitrage mechanisms in our liquidity pools. This ensures the token always reflects the true market value of gold, currently approximately $85 per gram.
Who is behind Aetherix?
+
Aetherix is founded by experienced professionals from finance, blockchain, and real estate industries. Our team includes former Goldman Sachs executives, Google engineers, and BlackRock portfolio managers. We have decades of combined experience in asset management, smart contract development, and decentralized finance.
Technical Questions
What blockchain is AXG on?
+
AXG will initially launch on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token. Cross-chain bridges to Solana and Polygon are planned for Q1 2027, allowing users to trade AXG across multiple networks with low fees and fast transaction times. This multi-chain strategy maximizes accessibility and liquidity.
How are assets verified?
+
Assets undergo a rigorous multi-layer verification process including third-party professional appraisal, legal ownership verification through title searches, and Chainlink oracle integration for ongoing valuation. This ensures that every tokenized asset is legitimate, properly valued, and legally compliant.
Is the smart contract audited?
+
Yes, we will complete a professional security audit with a top-tier firm like CertiK or Hacken before mainnet launch. The complete audit report will be publicly available for full transparency. We prioritize security above all else and maintain a bug bounty program for ongoing protection.
How does the liquidity pool work?
+
Our DEX uses the constant product formula (x*y=k) for automated market making. Liquidity providers earn 0.25% of all swap fees, currently earning approximately 12.5% APY. Anyone can provide liquidity by depositing equal value of AXG and USDC into the pool and earn passive income from trading activity.
What happens if I lose my wallet?
+
As with any cryptocurrency, your AXG tokens are only accessible with your private keys. We strongly recommend using hardware wallets like Ledger or Trezor for large holdings and securely backing up your seed phrase offline. Aetherix cannot recover lost wallets or reset passwords.
