tSILVER
Crypto Overview
Overview
tSILVER (TXAG) is a cryptocurrency token built on the Ethereum blockchain that aims to provide tokenized exposure to physical silver. The project claims to be fully backed by physical silver stored in secure vaults.
Purpose and Utility
The intended purpose of TXAG is to serve as a digital representation of physical silver, allowing for easier trading, storage, and transfer of silver ownership rights. Each TXAG token is meant to represent ownership of 1 gram of physical silver.
Business Model
The business model appears straightforward - users can purchase TXAG tokens which represent ownership of physical silver. The physical silver is stored in secure vaults, with regular audits claimed to verify the backing. Revenue comes from trading fees and storage fees.
Adoption and Usage
The token shows relatively limited trading volume and adoption at present. However, this is not inherently problematic from a Sharia compliance perspective as long as the core business model is sound.
Development Activity
The project maintains basic infrastructure for token issuance and redemption. While not showing extensive development activity, the core functionality appears to work as intended.
Token Distribution
Token supply is meant to be directly tied to physical silver deposits, with new tokens minted when silver is added to vaults and burned when redeemed. This model appears reasonable and aligned with the stated purpose.
