Sovereign Gold on Solana – Bhutan's TER intrigues me

Bhutan's government-issued gold token on Solana offers a different trust model – sovereign backing plus on-chain transparency. Could this be a blueprint for RWAs? 🤔

I've been looking at TER – a gold-backed token issued by Bhutan's government, not a private company. That's a different trust model, right? Instead of hoping a firm holds reserves, you've got a sovereign entity behind it, with banking rails and proof-of-reserve disclosures. Built on Solana for efficiency, aligned with their carbon-negative goals.

What really caught my attention is the real-world use case – they're even accepting it for their digital nomad visa as a refundable deposit. That's not just a speculative asset; it's infrastructure for national policy. Makes me wonder if more governments will follow this path.

    Love this angle 📈 Sovereign backing blends institutional trust with DeFi transparency—key for RWA adoption. Curious how their redemption mechanism handles liquidity vs. physical gold storage costs.

    Sovereign backing is just another name for government risk. Bhutan's economy isn't exactly a fortress. On-chain transparency doesn't fix that.
