I'm planning to buy 1 kg of gold with my own money and build an open treasury of real assets around it — every purchase published with documents, and what to buy next decided together with the community. Before I spend the money, I want to know: does anyone besides me need this?
Idea stage · Nothing for sale · Your opinion neededWhy I think the order of things matters more than nice promises.
Most crypto projects are a name and a promise. Token first, then fundraising, then maybe buying something real. When new people stop arriving, nothing is left behind the project.
I've lost my own money on exactly that. So I want to test whether it can be done the other way round.
The plan is to buy 1 kg of gold with my own money before any token exists. The bar, its certificate and the purchase document get published so anyone can match the serial number.
For now this is a plan. I haven't bought anything yet and want to hear criticism first.
If the idea turns out to be wanted, the treasury adds more real assets — each with documents.
What to buy next is discussed publicly with the people following the project — before the money is spent.
Tokenising real-world assets is a visible trend. But most projects keep their assets behind reports and custodians.
I want to find out whether people want a different model: small, open, one person showing everything. Or whether nobody needs it — that's an answer too.
The difference isn't in the promises — it's in what happens first.
This is a model, not a working system. None of the steps are live — I want it criticised before anything launches.
I buy 1 kg of gold with my own money and publish the documents. Not done yet — this is step one if the idea turns out to be wanted.
Later the project could accumulate funds, possibly including from a token. This is an open question.
Which asset to buy next is discussed in the open. There is no voting mechanism: it's an idea.
The next real asset is bought and properly registered.
Photo, serial number, certificate and purchase document — public, with personal data hidden.
Every step can be checked. No promises of profit.
I don't want to build a token of faith. I want to find out whether people want a treasury they can verify.
I'm one person. I'm planning to put my own money into the first asset. But first I want to hear what you think.
If I decide to launch, the first kilogram of gold will be bought with my own money, before anything exists that anyone could buy. No fundraising will come before it.
That's exactly why I want to know in advance whether anyone needs this. Every opinion, every criticism and every email left here is part of that decision.
No price shown: gold moves up and down, and the exact amount will be on the purchase document if it gets that far.
I'm deciding whether to put my own money into the first bar. Every email is a vote for "yes, this is interesting". I'll write when I've decided, and what I changed based on your criticism.

Three things without which the project makes no sense.
Gold is an easy-to-understand asset: its physical existence can be shown, documented and checked by serial number.
Every purchase should be published in full: photo, serial number, certificate, purchase document. Not a summary of the purchase — the purchase.
The project has no team, no legal entity, no audit and no token. That's stated plainly — and will stay stated until it changes.
The model is written down and this site is up.
Collecting opinions and criticism: is this needed, where does the model break, who would want to take part.
If the interest is there — buying 1 kg of gold with my money and publishing the documents.
Only after the first asset, and only if the community thinks it's needed.
No. I'm planning to, and first I want to find out whether people need a project like this. If there's no interest, I won't launch it.
No. No token exists and no money is being collected. If someone offers you an 'early entry' into AUREUM LINK, it isn't me.
Speak up. Tell me what you like, what bothers you and what you'd change. Leave your email if you want the project to happen.
Good question, and I want your answer. PAXG is a claim on gold held by a custodian. I'm thinking about something else: an open treasury where every purchase is visible and the next one is chosen together. Whether that's needed is exactly what I'm testing.
Then I won't buy a bar for the project, and I'll close it. That's an honest result too.
