Why Gold Has Not Natively Entered DeFi

While trillions of dollars of value have moved on-chain, gold has remained largely absent due to:

• Custody risk: Most DeFi cannot safely interface with physical assets

• Regulatory ambiguity: No clear framework for enforceable on-chain ownership

• Lack of primitives: No standardized way to represent title, claims, and delivery

• Absence of global standards: Fragmented approaches fail at scale

Global Gold exists to solve these foundational blockers — not through wrappers, but through first-principles design.
