SMX and Goldstrom Pioneer New Era in Precious Metals Certification

In a transformative collaboration, SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) and Goldstrom aim to revolutionize the transparency of the precious metals market. By embedding molecular markers directly into gold and silver, they're introducing a system where metals can self-verify their origin and history, eschewing traditional paperwork which could be altered. This approach, integrating SMX's digital-registry infrastructure, creates a paradigm shift in how trust operates within the industry.

Goldstrom's expansive network, covering areas from bullion banking to logistics, is set to embed these technologies, facilitating a traceable ecosystem for precious metals. This new method allows for faster compliance with regulatory checks, reducing costs and delay. Notably, SMX's "trueGold" and "trueSilver" programs ensure metals retain a verifiable identity throughout their lifecycle, whether in mining or recycling phases.

Globally, the move towards traceability aligns with emerging regulations, such as the LBMA's guidelines. As buyers increasingly demand proven sustainable sourcing, SMX and Goldstrom offer a pioneering solution that enhances market integrity and value.
