Earn a lifelong yield for bulk gold & silver purchases

You will receive a yield in gold on all minted and transacted (sent or spent) qualifying Kinesis gold (KAU) and a yield in silver on all minted and transacted (sent or spent) qualifying Kinesis silver (KAG).

The Minter’s Yields are paid monthly, in week 1 of each following month, for all yields accrued in the previous month.

Kinesis checks your holdings and minted coins on all linked addresses, then pay your earned yield into your Kinesis KAU and KAG accounts.

You can keep track of all your yields via the Yields dashboard on the Kinesis platform.

The Minter’s Yield is designed to reward Kinesis users for minting and then using new KAU and KAG. In order to be eligible for the Minter’s Yield, you must first buy Kinesis gold (KAU) or silver (KAG) in the process of creating your own Kinesis currencies (aka. Minting), either using fiat, or through the EPD process. You then activate your Minter’s Yield by either selling or spending your KAG or KAU on the Kinesis Exchange or using the Kinesis card or transferring it to an unrelated, verified account or wallet.

For a full breakdown please read our comprehensive eligibility guide – here.

No. Your Minter’s Yield is perpetual and you will be receiving a proportional stake of the Minter’s Yield fee pool every month.

Yes, Exchanging Physical for Digital (EPD), followed by either sending your digitalised physical bullion to another verified user’s account, selling or trading it on the Kinesis Exchange, counts towards your Minter’s Yield. Please find the exact guidelines – here.

You will receive the Minter’s Yield as long as the KAU and KAG you are selling have been minted, and not bought on the Kinesis Exchange.

5% of the Kinesis Master Fee pool is allocated for the Minter’s Yield fee pool. This 5% is then distributed to all who are eligible for the Minter’s Yield in the proportion they have minted and used (either by sending or spending) as compared to other participants.
