Physical gold & silver coins investment through the blockchain

Discover e-coins

We remove constraints. You invest in gold and silver coins from your phone.

Gold and silver coins have always been one of the safest inflation-hedging investments. But they require insurance, transport, storage and so on.
Not anymore: we digitize them into liquid assets that we call e-coins.
