Matrixdock Releases Latest Semi-Annual Physical Gold Audit Report

Matrixdock is pleased to announce the release of its latest semi-annual physical gold audit report, reaffirming our unwavering commitment to reserve integrity, independent verification, and industry-leading transparency.

The report confirms Matrixdock’s physical gold holdings with institutional-grade rigor, demonstrating our continued leadership in setting best-practice standards for transparency in the tokenized asset Dual-Layer Verification: Physical Audits + On-Chain Transparency

XAUm is built on two complementary layers of verification, designed to deliver unprecedented visibility into the gold backing each token.

1. Independent Physical Audits
Physical gold reserves are inspected by professional third-party auditors, the same audit standard applied to leading gold ETFs such as SPDR Gold Shares (GLD). Each audit involves full bar-level verification, including weight, purity, serial number, and vault custody.

2. Real-Time On-Chain Supply Verification
In parallel, XAUm integrates blockchain-native transparency via third-party analytics providers:

  • Dune Analytics for EVM chains

  • SuiScan for the Sui Network

Together, these layers provide investors with continuous, independently verifiable insight into both on-chain token supply and off-chain physical reserves.

This approach sets high standards for commodity tokenization. As a result, Matrixdock’s audit framework has been featured by both the Tokenized Asset Coalition (TAC) and the Singapore Bullion Market Association, reinforcing the view that reserve transparency is foundational to the development of sustainable RWA.

Inside the H2 2025 Semi-Annual Physical Audit

The audit was conducted on 7 January 2026 and covered 482 LBMA-accredited 1-kilogram gold bars stored across three secure, institutional vaulting facilities:

  • Brink’s Hong Kong

  • Brink’s Singapore

  • Malca-Amit Singapore

The full audit report has been made publicly available at the Matrixdock website.

A total of 61 additional gold bars were added since the H1 2025 Audit.

Audit summary:

  • Total gold audited: 482 kg (482 × 1kg bars)

  • Equivalent weight: 15,595.336 troy ounces

  • XAUm circulating supply: 15,393.336 tokens

    • EVM chains (Dune): 13,084.236 tokens

    • Sui Network (Suivision): 2,411.1 tokens

  • Approximate market value: USD $71.75 million, based on gold at $4,630 per troy ounce

Each bar was individually weighed, measured, and reconciled against vault records, with no discrepancies identified.

Linking Physical Gold and Token Supply

Matrixdock’s Gold Allocation Lookup Tool allows XAUm holders to verify precisely which gold bars back their tokens, directly from their Web3 wallet.

Each XAUm token represents one troy ounce of 99.99% pure gold. Since a standard 1kg gold bar equals 32.148 troy ounces, holding 32.148 XAUm corresponds to full ownership of one bar.

Example allocations:

  • First line: A full allocation of 32.148 XAUm mapped to a single Heraeus bar (ID HS47377) stored in a Malca-Amit vault

  • Third line: A partial allocation (e.g., 7.284 XAUm) representing proportional ownership of Heraeus bar (ID HS80593)

This creates a direct, traceable link between a physical gold bar and a token, a level of transparency that has historically been unavailable in precious metals markets.

Setting the Standard for Tokenized Gold

As tokenization evolves from innovation to infrastructure, trust will be defined by proof, not promises. Matrixdock remains committed to advancing reserve transparency, institutional discipline, and accessibility, bringing investment-grade gold to a broader global audience without compromise.
