About Aurus
An open precious metals market for everyone
Precious metals have been a reliable store of value for thousands of years. However, the path to owning these assets presents several obstacles and costs, excluding millions of people from this market.
Our story
Bringing precious metals to the digital asset ecosystem
Aurus was founded in 2018 on the belief of opening the precious metals market to everyone, with the conviction to collaborate with traditional market participants, empowering them with the tools and technology necessary to make precious metals accessible assets worldwide.
Today, Aurus is leveraging metal-backed blockchain technology to help gold, silver, and platinum businesses democratize these assets via the digital economy while earning passive rewards in the digital assets & DeFi space.
