General principals in tokenized asset security

MINTX and Stellar Security

MINTX precious metal tokens such as GOLD, SLVR, PLAT and PALL are all issued on the Stellar blockchain. This protects them from forgery and allows instant access, flexible security and trade by owners.

MINTX tokens are only issued manually and offline after payment is confirmed. Transactions are signed from the cold storage issuing account within a real bank vault under maximum security and then later issued to the clients Stellar blockchain account where they are free to manage ownership.

Client order payments are instantly transfered to our gold distributor partners who hold the audited and insured physical gold on a 1:1 basis.

Our strict security policy ensures your token investment is always secure.

Stellar Account Security

Like bitcoin anyone can generate a Stellar account instantly, use our wallet or even Stellars own account viewer But remember you must have a store of XLM Lumens in the account to activate and power its transactions. You will only require 0.0001 Lumen to power a transaction and you will need 0.5 Lumen available for every asset trustline you enable. You must authorize the individual asset trustlines of each precious metal you wish to hold click here for easy instructions

Example: GBEKP6LXG55CB6OIAYT5N6ZLBL2JE62ANUBYIKONTQCZJ43WFKSPR7QB
and the secret key or password which can access this account
Example: SAOUIGGL32O5B3IMTF2P7GPB2STL74HGKIUV2ZWPGSOZN5I6VVDCTE5Q
You can safely give your selected public key to anyone or publish it on their website and people can send tokens directly to that account however only knowing the secret key password can access this particular account and perform transactions.

With some wallets and exchanges you can use this key to login to the exchange itself but you must be very careful about protecting this key.

Best token security practices recommend you use a hardware wallet to protect your account such as a Ledger Nano which will protect your secret key from online attackers while still allowing you to login to your account.
