e-Gold Rises Over 60% in One Year… Small-Scale Fractional Investment Available
According to SenGold, a fractional investment platform operated by the Busan Digital Asset Exchange (BDAN·Bidan), as of the 26th, the trading price of e-Gold is 139,100 KRW per gram, marking a surge of over 60% compared to a year ago (87,400 KRW). e-Gold is a digital asset that holds the same value as physical gold and can be traded in units as small as 0.01g, making it highly accessible to small-scale investors.
The trading volume of e-Gold has also increased sharply. In early February last year, the daily average trading volume was around 270g, but as of February 21 this year, it has nearly sextupled to 1,528g. Consequently, the daily trading amount has skyrocketed by over 800%, from 23.55 million KRW a year ago to 2.148 billion KRW.
Increase in SenGold Users and Trading Volume
SenGold, a blockchain-based real asset investment platform, has seen more than a 20% increase in users this year compared to the same period last year, with the trading volume of e-Gold tripling. Particularly, transactions by users under 30 years old have surged more than sevenfold, indicating growing interest among young investors.
Tax-Free Investment with Physical Redemption Option
e-Gold can be traded as a digital exchange certificate, allowing investors to redeem the asset in physical form through SenGold. Moreover, investors can trade e-Gold like stocks without the need to physically own gold, thereby benefiting from potential price fluctuations.
e-Gold traded on SenGold is securely stored in the vaults of Korea Gold Exchange, the country’s leading gold distributor, ensuring safe asset management and immediate fulfillment of withdrawal requests.
Expansion of Digital Assets… Beyond Gold to Various Raw Materials
In addition to e-Gold, SenGold offers digital trading services for seven types of metal commodities, including △e-Silver △e-Platinum △e-Palladium △e-Copper △e-Nickel △e-Tin. This year, the platform plans to expand its offerings to include digital investment options in food commodities such as e-Aluminum, e-Zinc, e-Lead, e-Coffee Beans, e-Cocoa, e-Sugar, and e-Wheat.
As the digitization of real assets like gold progresses, investors are gaining more flexible and convenient access to raw material investments. Experts predict that with increasing global economic volatility, alternative investment methods like digital gold will continue to attract growing attention.
