Elemental Royalty offers tokenized gold dividends with Tether

Elemental Royalty is the first public gold company to offer dividends in Tether Gold (XAU₮), giving shareholders direct gold exposure through blockchain tokens.

Elemental Royalty Corporation has become the first publicly listed gold company to offer shareholders the option to receive dividends in Tether Gold (XAU₮), a tokenized digital asset backed by physical gold. This initiative, announced by Tether, marks a significant milestone in merging traditional gold investment with blockchain technology. Shareholders can now choose to receive dividends in XAU₮ instead of cash, gaining direct exposure to gold while benefiting from blockchain features such as faster settlement, enhanced transparency, and easy transferability. XAU₮ is available as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum and a TRC20 token on TRON, each representing one fine troy ounce of gold that meets the London Bullion Market Association's Good Delivery standard. This move is expected to modernize shareholder distributions in the gold sector and highlights the increasing adoption of tokenized assets in corporate finance.
