A New Era of Gold Investment Through Tokenization
AuCan Gold Inc. has officially announced the launch of one of the largest tokenized gold initiatives to date, valued at US$2.5 billion. In partnership with TheBlock, a leading Dubai-based virtual asset chamber, the initiative represents the first fully integrated real-world asset (RWA) tokenized gold ecosystem backed by Canadian gold reserves.
To support its entrance into the digital asset space, AuCan Gold is preparing to open a securitized token offering, providing accredited investors globally with a digital gateway to physical gold ownership and returns.
Why Tokenized Gold?
Traditionally, gold has been viewed as a safe haven investment, offering lower volatility and greater long-term stability compared to other asset classes. By leveraging blockchain-powered tokenization, AuCan Gold aims to democratize access—making it easier for investors of all sizes to participate in gold-backed financial products through a transparent, secure, and innovative digital platform.
Backed by Canadian Gold Reserves in the Abitibi Region
In its initial phase, AuCan Gold plans to tokenize up to 1.5 million ounces of gold reserves. These reserves are verified under NI 43-101 regulations and span over 8,700 hectares across six resource-rich properties in Timmins, Ontario, within the renowned Abitibi gold belt. A regional processing mill supports the development of these assets.
The company is also evaluating additional mining properties, with early indications suggesting the potential for significantly larger gold reserves due to the area’s deep deposit structure.
Dubai-Based Operations for Global Reach
To extend its global capabilities, AuCan Gold will operate key functions—including token management, HODLing programs, and gold storage—through its wholly owned subsidiary in Dubai. AuCan Dubai’s role is to acquire and hold both internal and third-party gold reserves, building a diversified gold-backed portfolio on behalf of the business and its token holders.
Leadership Speaks on the Future of Gold Tokens
“Tokenizing real-world Canadian gold reserves offers investors around the globe—from individuals to institutions—a modern, secure, and transparent pathway to gold market exposure,”
said Leon Dadoun, President of AuCan Gold Inc.
He emphasized the company’s expertise in securities regulation, resource development, and blockchain implementation, adding that AuCan Gold is uniquely positioned at the intersection of traditional mining and modern finance.
Two Asset-Backed Tokens with Utility
TheBlock will lead the technical implementation of the tokenization process, helping AuCan Gold launch two distinct, regulatory-compliant RWA tokens:
-
AuCan Gold Token
Backed by AuCan Gold’s asset portfolio, offering investors exposure to tokenized Canadian gold reserves. -
AuCan Pro Token
Offers qualified holders the right to redeem 1 ounce of physical gold at a defined future date—initially priced below current market spot prices at the time of offering.
More Than Metal: Built-In Profit Sharing
AuCan Gold’s ecosystem is designed not just for exploration and gold extraction, but for long-term profitability. The company outlines potential distributions to token holders, driven by revenue from project returns, holdings, and corporate earnings—paving the way for a potential mix of capital appreciation and yield generation.
Support from Web3 and Blockchain Leaders
“This is exactly the kind of project we built TheBlock for—real assets, real innovation, and a clear path to tokenization done right,”
said Farbod Sadeghian, CEO and Founder of TheBlock.
“We’re proud to help bring one of the world’s largest tokenized gold ecosystems to life.”
Coming Q4 2025: Accredited Investor Offering
The AuCan Gold and AuCan Pro Tokens are expected to launch in Q4 2025. The offering is now open to accredited investors only, subject to relevant security laws and jurisdictional compliance.
Educating the Next Wave of Gold Investors
To further investor awareness and community engagement, AuCan Gold has partnered with Web3 creative studio Flashy to produce a series of educational content initiatives. These segments will explain tokenized gold in plain language, helping global investors understand the opportunity blockchain brings to precious metals investing.
Closing Thoughts
This launch signals a pivotal moment for institutional and individual gold investors alike. Combining Canadian gold assets, Dubai-based custody, and blockchain infrastructure, the AuCan ecosystem sets out to transform how physical assets are accessed and monetized in a digital-first economy.
As the world continues to bridge traditional finance with digital assets, AuCan Gold’s $2.5B tokenized offering could become a defining milestone in the gold investment landscape.
