A sovereign asset for a sovereign people.

For decades, Iran has been the subject of foreign sanctions, asset freezes, and economic coercion designed to break the will of its people. PGOLD — the Persian Asset Reserve Standard — is a peaceful, market-based answer.

Every PGOLD token is backed 1:1 by one gram of physical gold purchased and vaulted at Bank Karkozaee, an established Iranian institution. The proceeds buy real reserves. The reserves belong to the people who hold the tokens. The audit log is open to anyone who wants to verify it.

Buying PGOLD is not charity. It is an investment in the world's oldest store of value. But it is also a statement — that the right of a nation to control its own wealth cannot be erased by anyone's foreign policy.

Principles

• ✦ Physical, not synthetic. Every token is a gram of vaulted gold.
• ✦ Transparent. Every reserve entry is logged publicly.
• ✦ Owned by holders. Trading is peer-to-peer, not market-maker controlled.
• ✦ Permissionless to support. Anyone, anywhere, can hold PGOLD.
