Why should join Golden Currency? This is the main competitive advantages of Golden
  1. Gold-backed - One of the main Golden currency advantages is protection from inflation and possible political and other country risks due to 100% backing by gold (the possibility of exchanging Golden for real gold).
  2. Reliable. Transparent - We provide independent control over the system and its transactions by using blockchain to conduct non-cash transactions, keep track of Golden issuance and gold backing, ensure transparency of the system. This transparency protects users from theft of gold, hacking, legal challenges, etc.
  3. Depoliticized - The issuance of Golden is not carried out by any nation-state, thus does not bear the risks associated with it.
  4. Convenient - Maximization of the infrastructure (banks, ATMs, cards, etc.) and reducing the cost of maintenance will bring convenience, including automatic conversion into crypto and other currency.
  5. Both cash and non-cash - Golden currency transfer from one form to another and convenient payments in any form.
Forms of payments

Golden will exist in the form of both cash and non-cash money, providing the opportunity to implement the full range of possible money transactions.

Form 1. Cash.
Cash will be issued in the form of plastic (polymer) banknotes printed in one of the world's factories that provide printing of fiat money services for the world's largest economies.

The currency units will use the best practices in the field of counterfeit protection, including watermarks, holograms and other protection technologies. Detailed protection technologies will be presented after signing the contract with the factory and the completion of the design.

Based on the convenience of their use, various denominations of currency will be presented, One Golden is expected to be backed by gold in a volume close to USD 1 exchange value at the time of the first issuance (approximately 0.02 g of gold) (more precisely, the volume of gold in one Golden will be determined by the time of the issuance, can be changed to the moment of the first issue, but will remain unchanged in the future).

In order to determine the design of the currency after the pre-ICO a public competition will be announced.

At any moment after the currency issuance its owner will be able to exchange Golden for physical gold in the depository. The rules for such exchange (with possible minimum volumes of such exchange and other terms) will be determined at the issuance.

Golden can be a means of payment in those countries in which it will be permitted by law. The activities of the project company will be aimed at maximizing the number of such countries in which Golden owners will be able to make any transactions without restrictions, even within the conditions of underdevelopment of the payment infrastructure. Cash also provides a good opportunity to make anonymous payments, which is almost impossible to achieve when making electronic payments, including crypto-currencies. Cash can be purchased initially at the stage of its issuance, further at Golden banks and their ATMs. Ultimately, they may be purchased at the currency exchange offices, other banks, retail chains, from individuals, and through other traders of Golden.

Form 2. Non-cash money
It is planned to create a worldwide branch banking network. Users will be able to open accounts with Golden banks, load these accounts, get bank cards linked to these accounts, withdraw money from them, convert between accounts in different currencies, including national, pay with them in shops, make transfers and transactions via the Internet, and conduct other ordinary banking operations in all countries of the world. Golden users will be not only individuals, but also legal entities.

It will be possible to open multi-currency accounts. Golden system conversions will happen at a favorable rate with minimal losses, whenever payments are made in another country, with a different currency. This avoids paying commissions through the increased rates and multiple conversions.

When making a payment by a bank card in a country in which the national currency differ from Golden, and settlements are allowed only in national currency, the transaction will be as follows: the amount of payment will be automatically requested for conversion to the currency of payment at the Golden Exchange at the best market price, corresponding amount of the payment currency will be transferred to its account and payment will be made directly from it, again without the need for costly conversions.

Form 3. Crypto-currency. Link with fiat money
Golden Exchange will be registered as a fully legal crypto exchange in which user will be able to convert fiat and crypto-currency. Owner of a bank account in Golden Bank automatically gets access to trading on the exchange. In the online bank and mobile application the user will be able to purchase any crypto asset traded on the exchange at the exchange price. Information on all crypto assets and currency accounts will be available in one place.

A wide range of advanced tools will allow a user to have analytical support of operations on the currency exchange and monitor existing trends.

User can set an automatic conversion from the crypto account to the payment currency account when making a payment by a bank card. In such a case payment will actually come from such crypto accounts.

Thus, the user will simultaneously be able to invest in crypto-currencies and conveniently use crypto-currency as a means of payment.
