Amid global economic instability and declining trust in traditional financial systems, digital assets like gold-backed tokens are becoming increasingly relevant. The fully regulated platform Ubuntu Tribe has launched GIFT Gold.
Reasons for Launching GIFT Gold
On July 4, 2025, Ubuntu Tribe officially introduced GIFT Gold – a regulated and fully gold-backed token designed for secure and accessible gold ownership. Ubuntu Tribe founder Mamadou Kwidjim Touré emphasized the need for gold accessibility: "At a time of global geopolitical instability, it is only fair to make gold accessible and affordable to all."
Example of Financial Mobility
One example of GIFT Gold usage shows how an overseas nurse could preserve her earnings and support her family. She used the UTribe Wallet to purchase GIFT Gold tokens and instantly transferred some to her mother, providing her family with real assets without relying on a bank or unstable currencies.
