Platform & Ecosystem
Explore the independent layers that formulate the complete Helios gold issuance architecture. Below are the core systems, verification tools, and settlement interfaces.
Physical Asset Infrastructure
Gold Custody Facility
The strictly mapped custody architecture of the Helios platform. Operating as a gold issuance facility, this system strictly enforces custody separation. By leveraging third-party regulated vault partners and providing daily Proof of Reserves attestations, the network isolates counter-party risks native to physical precious metals settlement.
Cryptographic Verification
Proof of Reserves Engine
The operative core of the Helios evidence system. Managing reserve verification across all issued gold-backed certificates, this engine produces deterministic custody hashes anchored to XRPL and Stellar. It provides institutional purchasers with atomic DVP settlement evidence and continuous reserve transparency.
On-Chain Execution
Settlement Layer & Issuance Protocol
The definitive issuance and settlement protocol for gold-backed certificates on Helios. This layer dictates how certificates are minted against verified custody events, how TrustLine authorizations are enforced, and how deterministic state transitions ensure every gram of gold is programmatically accounted for on-chain.
Transparency & Audit Tools
Public Verification Portal
An institutional-grade transparency portal providing real-time reserve verification. Custody hashes, dual-chain anchors, and merkle inclusion proofs are publicly queryable, enabling any participant to independently verify that issued gold-backed certificates maintain full 1:1 physical backing.
