Is Kinesis silver a stablecoin?

Yes, Kinesis silver (KAG) can be described as a stablecoin – a cryptocurrency that derives value from its tie with an underlying commodity. KAG is a digital asset backed by an equal amount of 1 ounce of fully allocated, fine silver bullion.

Holders of Kinesis silver are offered the security of ownership on an asset that has held its value throughout history. The price of KAG aggregates the cost of physical silver bullion across a network of global vaults, secured and insured by our partner company, ABX.

How do I know my silver is in the vaults?

All silver bullion held by Kinesis undergoes independent, third-party audits, four times a year.

With more than 10 years of experience in the precious metals industry, we understand the necessary assurance only complete transparency provides.

We employ the world-class independent audit and inspection specialist, Inspectorate International, a Bureau Veritas company, to conduct regular, independent, physical audits of all bullion underpinning Kinesis silver-backed digital currencies. The quantity of silver held in our vaults is checked against the record of all KAG in circulation, stored on our blockchain.

Regular independent audits verify that each and every KAG within the Kinesis monetary system is based on an exact 1:1 allocated quantity of silver bullion. Additionally, independent auditors perform a series of assessments to ensure the weight and fineness of the bullion are as stated, and the quality of the storage is satisfactory.

The results of all of our audits are publicly available – here.

How is Kinesis able to offer free storage on fully allocated silver?

We are able to offer Kinesis users chargeless storage on their precious metals holdings, by utilising the robust vaulting network of ABX. Additionally, a share of Kinesis global transaction fee revenue is allocated to covering vaulting costs.

Can I redeem my silver? What are the costs?

Kinesis and ABX understand the absolute necessity of physical redemption. As a matter of imperative assurance, Kinesis offers physical redemption on all precious metals behind your precious metals-based digital currencies.

Kinesis currency holders are fully entitled to redeem the underlying bullion of Kinesis silver (KAG), subject to withdrawal fees and minimum withdrawal requirements. The redemption cost and minimum withdrawal requirements of Kinesis are among the lowest in the industry.
