Liquid Noble“储备已满并准备于 8 月 26 日推出”

这家总部位于澳大利亚的公司将通过法定交易提供区块链代币化的贵金属资产，提供一种快速而简单的方式

Liquid Noble, a new company offering blockchain-tokenized precious metal assets with fiat trades, is set to launch on August 26. The service will provide a fast and simple way for anyone to invest in bullion and possibly even use those tokenized assets for everyday purchases.

Liquid Noble 是一家通过法定交易提供区块链代币化贵金属资产的新公司，将于 8 月 26 日推出。该服务将为任何人提供一种快速、简单的方式来投资金条，甚至可能使用这些代币化资产进行日常购买。

Speaking to CoinGeek, Liquid Noble Chief Marketing Officer Annette Fortner noted an interest in precious metals and their stability relative to fiat currencies in recent years. This has seeped into mainstream media coverage amid reports the BRICS group is seeking to create a gold-backed settlement currency, shifting geopolitics and increasing uncertainty surrounding fiat currencies’ ability to retain trust and value.

Liquid Noble 首席营销官 Annette Fortner 在接受 CoinGeek 采访时指出，近年来人们对贵金属及其相对于法定货币的稳定性产生了兴趣。有报道称，金砖国家集团正在寻求创建一种以黄金为基础的结算货币，从而导致地缘政治发生变化，并增加了围绕法定货币保持信任和价值的能力的不确定性，这一点已渗透到主流媒体的报道中。

People concerned by these trends, who have long been a disproportionately large percentage of blockchain and digital asset proponents, would be looking for ways to make trading in and out of precious metals simpler and faster.

长期以来，关注这些趋势的人们在区块链和数字资产支持者中所占的比例一直很高，他们将寻找使贵金属交易更简单、更快捷的方法。

“With that knowledge in mind, it’s essential for us to provide our users a way that they can not only hedge the loss of purchasing power inherent with fiat currency, but also a way for them to flexibly hold and transact in precious metals if they so choose.”

“考虑到这些知识，我们必须为用户提供一种方法，使他们不仅可以对冲法定货币固有的购买力损失，而且还可以让他们灵活持有和交易贵金属（如果他们愿意）选择。”

“As inflation erodes our purchasing power globally, and with gold prices soaring to record highs, the world is increasingly considering a return to a gold standard. Gold‘s enduring ability to preserve value through economic fluctuations is well-documented. By embracing gold, a currency with a rich history and promising future, Liquid Noble offers a modern solution, empowering investors with an affordable and seamless way to protect their wealth without losing any of the convenience or liquidity of normal money.”

“随着通货膨胀侵蚀我们的全球购买力，金价飙升至历史新高，世界越来越多地考虑回归金本位。黄金在经济波动中持久保值的能力是有据可查的。 Liquid Noble 通过采用黄金这种具有丰富历史和光明未来的货币，提供了一种现代化的解决方案，为投资者提供了一种负担得起且无缝的方式来保护他们的财富，同时又不失去普通货币的任何便利性或流动性。”

How Liquid Noble works: The BSV blockchain, Tokenized protocol and physical reserves

Liquid Noble 的工作原理：BSV 区块链、代币化协议和实物储备

Liquid Noble tokenizes its fiat and bullion reserves using the Tokenized Protocol on the BSV blockchain. Customers can manage accounts using the dashboard on a desktop browser or via a progressive web app (PWA) on mobile devices.

Liquid Noble 使用 BSV 区块链上的代币化协议对其法定货币和金条储备进行代币化。客户可以使用桌面浏览器上的仪表板或通过移动设备上的渐进式网络应用程序 (PWA) 来管理帐户。

At launch, Liquid Noble will be available for Australian residents and non-Australians with AUD accounts (though not those based in the United States). Bullion offered for tokenization and (optional) physical delivery includes gold, silver and platinum in a “huge range of coins and bars” and at close to spot prices. It does not charge storage fees, and users who’ve been on Liquid Noble’s waiting list will get transaction fees waived for the first three months.

Liquid Noble 推出后将面向拥有澳元账户的澳大利亚居民和非澳大利亚人（但不适用于美国账户）。提供代币化和（可选）实物交割的金条包括“大量金币和金条”中的黄金、白银和铂金，且价格接近现货价格。它不收取存储费，并且一直在 Liquid Noble 等待名单上的用户将获得前三个月的交易费免除。

Fortner said the firm is currently working with two bullion providers in Australia: one based in Melbourne and another with branches in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Gold Coast. It’s also working on expanding its list of bullion and storage providers “to offer our users the most comprehensive selection of previous metals on the market.”

福特纳表示，该公司目前正在与澳大利亚的两家金银供应商合作：一家位于墨尔本，另一家在悉尼、墨尔本、布里斯班和黄金海岸设有分支机构。它还致力于扩大其金条和存储供应商名单，“为我们的用户提供市场上最全面的先前金属选择。”

Since building trust and a reputation for reliability is a major issue for any new company offering these kinds of services, Liquid Noble is putting mechanisms in place to ensure everything is done properly.

由于建立信任和可靠性声誉对于任何提供此类服务的新公司来说都是一个主要问题，因此 Liquid Noble 正在建立机制以确保一切都正确完成。

“The trust of our customers is our highest priority, which is why we plan to engage independent auditing firms to verify our reserves every six months,” Fortner said. “Where possible, any allocated gold belonging to Liquid Noble will be photographed during the independent audits and we can release the associated information to customers of our platform upon request.”

福特纳说：“客户的信任是我们的首要任务，这就是为什么我们计划聘请独立审计公司每六个月核实我们的储备金。” “在可能的情况下，任何分配给 Liquid Noble 的黄金都将在独立审计期间被拍照，我们可以根据要求向我们平台的客户发布相关信息。”

Along with trades in and out of specific metals, there are also pool-allocated generalized products on offer.

除了特定金属的进出交易外，还提供池分配的通用产品。

“Third-party suppliers managing these holdings have a long-standing and strong reputation in the bullion industry for many years, and these reserves are insured by Lloyd’s of London,” she added.

“管理这些资产的第三方供应商多年来在金银行业享有长期而良好的声誉，这些储备由伦敦劳合社承保，”她补充道。

Solving the compliance and efficiency problems

解决合规性和效率问题

The concept of tokenizing bullion on a blockchain network for trading or as a bullion-backed spending currency isn’t new; such services have existed for a while. In fact, active projects are attempting to create gold-backed digital tokens even before Bitcoin arrived.

在区块链网络上对金条进行代币化以进行交易或作为金条支持的支出货币的概念并不新鲜；此类服务已经存在一段时间了。事实上，甚至在比特币出现之前，活跃的项目就试图创建黄金支持的数字代币。

In the latter case (e.g., E-Gold and Liberty Reserve), the issues were regulatory compliance, trust and security. With blockchain, the main issues are cost, speed and openness. Some services run on proprietary blockchains with opaque governance or which aren’t particularly decentralized. On public networks like Ethereum, there are well-known issues with congestion and high “gas” fees, making them impractical for small transactions.

在后一种情况下（例如，E-Gold 和 Liberty Reserve），问题在于监管合规性、信任和安全。对于区块链来说，主要问题是成本、速度和开放性。有些服务在治理不透明或不是特别去中心化的专有区块链上运行。在以太坊等公共网络上，存在着众所周知的拥堵和高“gas”费问题，这使得它们对于小额交易来说不切实际。

Those looking to make simple, large-scale investments in precious metals may not mind fee or speed issues, but why have them when it’s not necessary? Additionally, BSV’s near-instant transactions and minuscule usage fees open up services like Liquid Noble to smaller investors and faster traders.

那些希望对贵金属进行简单、大规模投资的人可能不介意费用或速度问题，但如果没有必要，为什么还要投资呢？此外，BSV 近乎即时的交易和极低的使用费为较小的投资者和更快的交易者提供了像 Liquid Noble 这样的服务。

By issuing tokens for customers’ assets, Liquid Noble also opens up the possibility of a bullion-backed “currency” that could conceivably be used as money for everyday purchases. This would naturally depend on customers and businesses accepting the tokens as payment, but in the blockchain era, that idea isn’t as far-fetched as it once was.

通过为客户的资产发行代币，Liquid Noble 还开启了金条支持的“货币”的可能性，可以将其用作日常购买的货币。这自然取决于客户和企业接受代币作为支付方式，但在区块链时代，这个想法并不像以前那么牵强。
