Two paths. One protocol.
Whether you’re protecting your family’s savings or managing a treasury desk, $SOV is the same verified gold token — the use case changes, the integrity doesn’t.

Ghana · 2025–2026 · National context
Ghana’s gold is the foundation. Your savings are the point.
The stats below describe Ghana’s national gold and reserve position — they are why this protocol exists in this country, not what VPAY itself holds. VPAY’s on-chain footprint sits in the trust strip above the fold.

How $SOV works · VPAY in 90 seconds
Four pieces. One promise.
Gold is read at the mine. Smart contracts refuse to mint a single token without proof. You hold the token — value tracks gold. Institutions lend against it. The whole stack is open, auditable, and built in Accra.
Hardware (GSU)
The Gold Sovereign Unit fingerprints every kilo at point of weigh-in: mass, density, XRF spectral signature, GPS, environmental telemetry. Tamper-evident. Sealed.
Read the spec →Smart contracts
10 production contracts live on Polygon Mainnet. "No verification, no token" is enforced in code: the bridge only mints when a confirmed hardware attestation exists.
See the ledger →$SOV token
Your gold savings on-chain. ERC-20 minted by SOV = (grams × XAU/USD) ÷ $1,000 — value tracks the gold price, not local currency. Hold it, transfer it, redeem it. Anywhere in the world.
Token mechanics →Vault lending
Institutional working-capital facility against attested $SOV reserves at 95–150% over-collateralisation. Custodians, exchanges, and treasury desks gain liquidity priced against verified physical collateral — without unwinding the underlying gold.
Lending model →How it works
From the mine to the markets — every step verifiable.
Five stages. Each one signed. Each one auditable. The whole chain of custody collapses into a single on-chain attestation hash.

19 million founder tokens locked. Cryptographically.
The genesis allocation does not sit on the founder’s wallet. It sits in an OpenZeppelin VestingWalletCliff contract whose beneficiary is the Safe multisig (2-of-2 today, migrating to 2-of-3). Twelve-month cliff. Forty-eight-month linear release. No revoke function exists in the contract. The math, not a press release, is the assurance.

Institutional Readiness Roadmap · Two independent audits · 27–28 May 2026
Composite 3.1 / 5.0 · 74 / 100 (Grade B) · Two methodologies, one verdict.
Two independent institutional audits in 48 hours triangulated VPAY Genesis as premium pre-launch technical work with tactical gaps. The 27 May audit (3.1/5.0) flagged three 4/5 strengths (OWASP web security, GDPR/Ghana DPA, AML/CFT) and identified a phased path to 4.0+/5.0. The 28 May audit (Z.ai · 74/100, Grade B) confirmed the same shape: SEO 82/A-, UX/Brand 78/B+, Smart Contracts 76/B+, with Accessibility 64 and Performance 68 named as the highest-ROI lifts. The auditor’s sentence: “Many of the controls that regulators and auditors look for are already built into the system design; they simply need to be formalised, documented, and subjected to independent verification.” The phased roadmap below is honest about what is shipped, what is in commissioning, and what is queued.
Phase 1 · 0–6 months · Critical
Formalise the controls already embodied in code
- SHIPPED 2026-05-27 Priority 1 Information Security Policy · Cybersecurity Governance Charter · published Addresses: SOC 2 · ISO 27001 · NIST CSF

- QUEUED Priority 3 Business Continuity Plan · BIA + DR procedures across 5-layer stack Addresses: ISO 22301 · NIST CSF Recover
- SHIPPED 2026-05-27 Priority 4 AML/CFT Policy Summary · FATF Travel Rule commitment · published Addresses: AML/CFT · ISAE 3402
Phase 2 · 6–12 months · High

- QUEUED Priority 6 Security Monitoring & Incident Response · SIEM tooling + playbooks Addresses: NIST CSF Detect/Respond · SOC 2
- QUEUED Priority 7 GDPR Enhancement · DPIA + Data Protection Officer designation Addresses: GDPR · Ghana DPA
Phase 3 · 12–24 months · Critical

Three paths
Where do you fit?
VPAY Genesis is a piece of public infrastructure. Three audiences engage with it differently.
For institutions
Verified gold exposure without the metal leaving Ghana.
Custodians, exchanges, and treasuries can hold $SOV against attested reserves. The Institutional API delivers signed attestations, custody primitives, and live audit feeds.
Institutional API specFor regulators
An on-chain audit trail your team can verify, not trust.
BoG, MFA, GoldBod, and Article 114 frameworks see every attestation, every reserve movement, every admin action. Compliance is observable, not asserted.
Compliance frameworkFor partners
Build on a verification layer that's already live.
Refineries, miners, custodians, and software integrators use the GSU hardware spec and the AttestationBridge interface to plug in. Ten contracts; clean APIs.
