Innovative ‘Grammies’ Blend Art, Technology

Matador recently launched its Digital Asset Platform, merging the artistry of precious metals with advanced blockchain technology. This platform facilitates the creation of unique digital art pieces permanently etched onto 1 gram of physical gold. Named “Grammies,” these digital designs are recorded on the Bitcoin blockchain, allowing collectors to own, imprint on gold, and digitally display these artworks, the company said.

This innovative blend of art and technology introduces a new dimension to art collection, making the Grammies compatible with various Bitcoin-friendly wallets and convertible into physical gold items, thus enhancing their practicality and appeal. Each Grammie is meticulously crafted onto a gram of gold and delivered directly to collectors.

The debut series features a limited edition of 1,000 unique artworks, produced in collaboration with celebrated artist dxxmsdxy. Each piece is algorithmically generated, complete with a unique serial number and narrative, ensuring its distinctiveness and authenticity, Matador has said.

The initiative opens new avenues for art collectors and precious metal enthusiasts seeking diverse investment options, according to the company. Each artwork is securely documented on the Bitcoin blockchain, one of the most robust blockchains globally, highlighting the security and authenticity of these digital assets. Matador holds a substantial amount of gold, securely stored and audited at the Royal Canadian Mint, as detailed in the company’s audited financial statements.

A More Transparent, Efficient Marketplace

Gold, with its market capitalization exceeding US$20 trillion, is a venerable store of value but has often been hampered by issues of accessibility and liquidity due to its physical nature, according to Joel Agbo’s guide to tokenized gold on CoinGecko, updated May 5. While gold ETFs provide a mechanism for investment, they operate within regulated, centralized frameworks and often do not grant retail investors direct ownership or the ability to redeem physical gold.

The advent of gold tokenization, which utilizes blockchain technology, is introducing a potentially more transparent and efficient global marketplace for gold, Agbo wrote. Over the last five years, this sector has seen significant growth. Presently, as per CoinGecko, the market for tokenized gold is valued at over US$2 billion and is positioned as a key trend to monitor in 2025.

Agbo noted that tokenization democratizes access to gold investments, enabling purchases of very small fractions on exchanges, such as Binance, which supports transactions as minute as 0.0000031 PAXG (approximately $0.01).

Tokenized gold can also be traded around the clock on global cryptocurrency exchanges, providing superior liquidity, he wrote.

In addition, the immutable nature of blockchain ledgers ensures that every token transaction is permanently and publicly recorded, and tokenized gold can also be integrated into decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms.

The Catalyst: Trading of Tokenized Gold Takes Off

This year, the trading activity of tokenized gold has skyrocketed to over US$19 billion, outpacing many prominent gold ETFs, as reported by David Marsanic for Crypto.news. Tokenized assets are increasingly viewed as a viable substitute for traditional investment avenues. A recent study from CEX.io, published on July 8, reveals that tokenized gold has gained more traction than various gold ETFs.

This pattern aligns with a broader trend where tokenized gold has consistently outstripped gold ETFs in trading volume growth for four consecutive quarters. The CEX.io report indicated that this points to a shift in investment from traditional gold ETFs to tokenized gold assets, as emphasized by Marsanic.

The report also highlighted that the increase in trading volume for tokenized gold is mainly fueled by retail and crypto-savvy investors, while institutional players continue to prefer traditional gold ETFs.

Gold prices experienced a slight decline on Wednesday, stabilizing after four consecutive days of increases, as investors processed weak U.S. economic indicators and considered President Donald Trump’s potential nomination for the Federal Reserve’s board, reported Peter Nurse for Investing.com on August 6.

At 04:30 ET (08:30 GMT), Spot Gold decreased by 0.4% to US$3,366.50 per ounce, while December Gold Futures also fell by 0.4% to US$3,420.72 per ounce, Nurse reported. The precious metal has seen gains over the past four sessions, with modest increases this week following a 2% surge on Friday.

Gold has been buoyed recently by expectations of imminent interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, possibly as early as next month, as a series of disappointing economic figures suggest that the Trump administration’s unpredictable trade policies are beginning to take a toll, the report noted.

Data released on Tuesday indicated that the Institute for Supply Management’s purchasing managers’ index dropped to 50.1 in July, below the anticipated 51.5, signaling a near halt in services activity and heightening worries about a slowdown in U.S. economic growth. This followed Friday’s lackluster U.S. payroll report, which showed fewer new jobs and widespread revisions, raising the unemployment rate to 4.2%. The likelihood of a Fed rate cut in September is currently just under 90%, which supports gold prices as lower interest rates decrease the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding bullion, Nurse wrote.[OWNERSHIP_CHART-10854]

Meanwhile, markets are considering U.S. President Donald Trump’s choices for an upcoming vacancy on the Federal Reserve’s board, with Gov. Adriana Kugler set to step down on August 8.

Gold and silver prices are treading water this summer, but Florian Grummes told Jeremy Szafron of Kitco News on July 29 that the bigger breakout is coming, and patient investors will be rewarded.

“We’re in a crack-up boom overall,” said Grummes, managing director of Midas Touch Consulting, in an interview with Kitco News. “That means everything will move higher because they destroy the purchasing power of your fiat money — whether it’s the euro, the dollar, or the Canadian dollar.”

According to the company, 65% is owned by management and insiders, including Founder and Director Donato Sferra, Vice President of Finance Geoff St. Clair, Director Richard Murphy, Soni, a strategic investor (through UTXO Management, LLC and 210K Capital, LP), Director Tyler Evans (through UTXO Management, LLC and 210K Capital, LP), and Founder Trevor Koverko, among others.

The rest, about 35%, is retail, and includes Hive Digital with 3%, Kitco Metals with 1%, and Gold Fields Ltd. with 4%, the company said.

It has about 105.94 million shares outstanding and has a market cap of CA$63.54 million. It trades in a 52-week range of CA$0.24 and CA$2.02.
