NatGold Digital Files MiCA White Paper for NATG Token in 30 European Markets
NatGold Digital has officially cleared the regulatory path to launch its NATG token across all 30 European Economic Area member states following the publication of its MiCA White Paper on May 7, 2026. Unlike traditional gold-backed tokens that represent physical bullion in vaults, NATG tokenizes the intrinsic value of verified, in-ground gold resources through a patent-pending process. The company filed its documentation with the Central Bank of Ireland in April, utilizing MiCA’s passporting provisions to enable broad EU distribution. This milestone follows a successful pre-market reservation program that concluded on February 25, 2026, attracting 17,466 participants from 162 countries and generating $469 million in gross demand. To ensure institutional-grade operational integrity, NatGold engaged High Ridge Trust as an independent custodian on May 22. By operating under the EU’s comprehensive asset-referenced token framework, NatGold is testing a novel model for commodity-backed digital assets. This development is significant for the RWA market as it demonstrates how innovative, non-vaulted resource tokenization can achieve regulatory compliance within a major jurisdiction.
