The denominator of this digital gold currency is the weight of gold rather than any other currency unit. There is no physical transfer of gold and it is stored as bullion in repositories which are certified by the London Bullion Market Association. There are account holders of digital gold currency which are like any other banking accounts giving similar facilities. The only difference is that the denominator of the account is not any currency but gold and with the fluctuation of gold price the account value will also alter. The organizations giving digital gold currency services are self regulated thus it is not necessary for them to comply with the banking regulations. An association called Global Digital Currency Association acts as a regulator but has no real power.
This new development in the world of online business is not only limited to the big business houses or entrepreneurs but is open to all kinds of investors and traders.
