From Vault to Ledger: How Assets Are Tokenized

Tokenization at STCM follows a rigorous, multi-step process—designed to ensure that every digital token represents a real, verified, and securely held asset in the physical world.

It begins in regulated vaults and custodial facilities. Each asset—whether gold, platinum, or any other precious commodity—is independently verified, weighed, and assigned a unique ID. These assets are then locked under custodial control, with audit trails issued by third-party verification agents.

Next, the token generation event (TGE) occurs on the STCM platform. For every unit of the real-world asset (e.g. 1 gram of gold), a corresponding token is minted, cryptographically linked to the verified vault deposit. These tokens are issued under a Swiss-compliant legal framework, ensuring enforceability and full recourse for holders.

Each token is encoded with smart contract logic—embedding ownership rights, transfer permissions, and compliance restrictions. From this moment, the token can circulate on-chain, while the physical asset remains safely stored and audited off-chain.

Finally, a live audit dashboard tracks token circulation, redemptions, and underlying collateral in real time—ensuring that on-chain activity always maps 1:1 to off-chain reality.
