Research and shelf status are on the memo: Matrixdock gold and silver (XAUm, XAGm) Adverse research finding
Who may buy, hold, transfer, and redeem
Each answer rests on the issuer’s own words, quoted from the document named under it. Ketju re-reads each document and records whether the words are still there. Where the documents say nothing, the row says so.
- What the holder owns
The terms call each token legal and beneficial ownership of one troy ounce of LBMA gold, held allocated at Malca-Amit or Brink’s or unallocated at a financial institution, with the holder the bearer of a document of title.
“Each XAUm Token represents legal and beneficial ownership of a single troy ounce of an LBMA Gold 1KG bar or an LBMA Gold Good Delivery bar”

- What the holder owns
The same terms say the gold is held for Matrix HK as agent for the issuer and that its value accrues to the issuer, which cuts against the ownership Section 2.2 grants.
“The Underlying Assets are maintained at the Vault Providers for the accounts of Matrix HK, and Matrix HK holds the Underlying Assets as agents for Token Issuer. Accordingly, value attributable, if any, to the Underlying Assets accrues for the benefit of Token Issuer.”

- Who may hold it
The terms say only eligible persons, meaning Matrixdock or Matrixport account holders who pass its checks, may receive XAUm. Matrixdock’s docs say holding is permissionless, and the contracts enforce only a block list.
“The XAUm Token is issued by Token Issuer and is transferable solely to persons that satisfy the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 1.”

The chain. Matrixdock allocates each address’s balance to bars from contract events and may reallocate at any time; a holder who wants a fixed bar packs tokens into an NFT.
“XAUm tokens are dynamically allocated to gold bars.”

- What the issuer says it can freeze or take back
The operator key can block any address from sending at once on Ethereum, BSC and Plume, and one Solana key can freeze, pause, and move any balance. The terms do not mention these powers; they let Matrixdock suspend a user’s access to its services.
“The XAUm Parties may suspend, restrict or terminate your access to any or all XAUm Token Services if”

Who holds the keys
Every current holder of each power, read from the chain on 2026-09-23. A single key is one private key: whoever holds it acts alone. A multisig needs the stated number of signers. A timelock makes every action wait, so holders can see it coming.

| Redeem in kind | A KYC’d Matrixdock customer asks by Telegram or email, sends at least 32.148 XAUm (a 1 kg bar) plus the fee to an address Matrixdock gives, and collects the bar in Hong Kong or Singapore or takes secured delivery; the terms also allow delivery to a vault account in the customer’s name or unallocated gold to a Loco London account. Bars depend on inventory. | 25 bps | XAU (LBMA 1 kg bars), XAU (unallocated Loco London gold) |
| Redeem with the issuer in its window | A KYC’d customer redeems at least 32.148 XAUm on app.matrixdock.com for USDC or USDT at a quoted price inside a slippage limit, during trading hours of 6:00 PM to 5:00 PM the next day, New York time, on working days. Matrixdock sells the gold and sends stablecoins within T+3, less fees and any trading losses. | 25 bps | USDC, USDT |
| Secondary market only; no issuer redemption | A holder without a Matrixdock account, or with less than 32.148 XAUm, exits by selling on an exchange or DEX. | USD, stablecoins |
- On Ethereum, BSC or Plume, an implementation changes or an upgrade is requested, the owner 0xb573c94260582f0715fc477928b04a2708dd36d7 or the operator and revoker 0x89bb23e4a82e04a253d9f11767fedf321c127799 changes, or the 14,400-second delay changes
- The operator adds any address to a block list, or an upgrade adds a forced transfer like the one on XAGm
- On Solana, the mint, freeze, pause, permanent-delegate or transfer-fee authority (all 5aLhp9VnUEKcsdtkfsf2DUgpJfomx7GmYVny24dHUZoB on 2026-09-23) changes, the transfer fee rises above zero, or the mint is paused
- The HyperEVM implementation 0x8a9a4b06a570e59f107859ae1827b17e46567dac is verified, so its powers can be read
- The reserve feed 0xB2624f7e72788F1EBf1C7877c646732957bbf72E changes owner or reserve without a matching vault statement, or Matrixdock-reported supply stays above the Ethereum usedReserve (13,695.048 oz against 16,491.918 XAUm on 2026-09-23)
- Matrixdock revises the XAUm terms (last revised October 21, 2025), above all Section 2.2 on ownership, Section 9.1 on who the gold’s value accrues to, or Section 1 on eligibility
- Matrixdock adds or drops a chain (the docs list Arc, which the reader cannot read; Polygon, HashKey and Tron retired 2026-08-07), or a Bureau Veritas audit is missed or finds a discrepancy
- Matrixdock starts a management fee, which the white paper says needs 30 days’ notice, or adds the United States to its prohibited list
What the monitor reads daily
Every control function in the table above and the contracts the token consults on transfer; the token’s on-chain supply against yesterday’s; and its market quote against yesterday’s quote. Every document quoted above is re-read too, and a quote that leaves its document reopens the file. A change opens a review item in the governance queue and reopens the file before any client action.
