I-ON Digital Corp (OTCQB:IONI) has strategically positioned its ION.au digital asset-backed security token to capitalize on gold's recent reclassification as a Tier-1 reserve asset under Basel III regulations. The token is overcollateralized, backed 5:1 by in-situ gold reserves that have been verified and audited according to NI 43-101 standards, ensuring strong asset backing.
The ION.au token stands out due to its compliance with major financial regulations, including ASC 820, IFRS 9, SEC Reg AB II, and is recognized as a financial instrument under both GAAP and IFRS standards. This positions the token as a suitable option for institutions seeking to tokenize and mobilize their gold reserves without sacrificing capital integrity.
One of the key features of the ION.au token is its valuation at LBMA PM Spot +2% Premium, which is intended to reinforce institutional price integrity. The token's treasury-based structure allows for active rehypothecation and yield generation, including staking capabilities and smart contract-based collateralization for lending, payments, or settlement.
Through this offering, I-ON Digital Corp aims to bridge the gap between traditional banking and digital finance by using real, overcollateralized gold reserves to create trusted, programmable Tier-1 capital that can be deployed across both traditional and decentralized finance landscapes. This initiative not only supports Basel III's structural re-prioritization but also offers institutions a compliant way to digitize and deploy gold as a revenue-generating asset.
