Mint. Earn. Repeat.

Earn gold as you mint with costs rebated & rewards paid weekly*

Earn gold rewards

The Kinesis Minting Programme (KMP) earns you 0.02% in gold (KAU) each time you mint –  with minting costs rebated by Kinesis. Mint up to $1M in KAU per user, per day.

A system built to reward you 

Weekly rebates

The exchange and spread costs of each mint cycle is fully rebated each week*. So you’re ready to mint all over again.

Weekly rewards

Get 0.02% in gold (KAU) with every completed mint cycle, up to a maximum of $1,000,000 in KAU per user per day. Paid into your account weekly.

Earn monthly yields

Kinesis shares more than half of its fee revenue as yields – paid in gold – each month. The more you mint cycle, the larger your share of the Minter’s Yield and the Velocity Yield. The Minter’s Yield rewards you for minting and the Velocity Yield rewards you for trading.

Sustainable growth

The KMP is sustainable due to our vertical integration in the gold industry, technology stack, and industry partnerships. As the KMP grows, rewards increase for all participants across the Kinesis Monetary System.

*In a flat market, where a mint cycle is conducted without market movement with sufficient market liquidity. As part of the KMP,  participants will receive a rebate of the exchange fee 0.22%, the minting fee 0.45% & a fixed spread of $0.20, along with an additional 0.02% reward, resulting in a net benefit of approximately 2 basis points, less the $5 fixed withdrawal fee. Returns are calculated based on prevailing fees and spreads and are subject to market fluctuations. See T&Cs.

Built for long-term growth

The KMP rewards minters and everyone in the Kinesis Monetary System. As minting activity grows, so do the rewards across the ecosystem.

When do I receive my KMP rewards?

Rewards and rebates are calculated weekly, from Monday 00:00 UTC to Sunday 23:59:59 UTC, and paid every Tuesday into your Kinesis account. 

If you mint gold (KAU) one week, then sell it in later weeks, any remaining KMP payments you’re owed will still be sent to you in a follow-up payout.

What yields can I earn with KMP?

Through the KMP, you can earn the Minter’s Yield and the Velocity Yield. The Minter’s Yield is paid when you mint and activate gold (KAU), while the Velocity Yield is earned when your minted gold (KAU) is spent or traded within the Kinesis system. 

On top of that, any gold (KAU) earned through the programme and held in your Kinesis account also qualifies you for the monthly Holders Yield. All yields are distributed monthly, based on your activity compared to other Kinesis users.

Can I earn KMP rewards for minting silver (KAG)?

No, the KMP rewards and rebates apply exclusively to Kinesis gold (KAU). Kinesis silver (KAG) is not included in the programme.

Is there a limit to the amount I can mint under the KMP?

While there is no limit to the amount you can mint, the KMP rewards and rebates apply only to the first $1,000,000 minted per participant, per day. Minting beyond this threshold incurs standard fees without rewards or rebates.

What is mint cycling?

Mint cycling allows you to reuse the same capital to repeatedly mint and trade gold (KAU), increasing your opportunity to earn. After you mint gold (KAU) and sell it for USD on the Kinesis Exchange, you can use those funds to mint again, beginning a new cycle. Each new cycle gives you a fresh chance to receive KMP rewards and earn the Minter’s Yield, as long as you follow the eligibility guidelines.
