What Changed When DGLD Launched Natively on Solana?
Gold Token SA launched DGLD natively on Solana on October 5, adding SwissBorg access and Arrakis-managed on-chain liquidity. The issuer says each token represents direct co-ownership of one fine troy ounce of allocated PAMP gold in Switzerland, with physical delivery available from one gram under applicable terms.
TL;DR — Key Takeaways
- ✓Asset: One DGLD represents co-ownership of one fine troy ounce of allocated PAMP gold.
- ✓Network: DGLD launched natively on Solana using the Token-2022 standard.

- ✓Caveat: Token market price can differ from spot gold; delivery conditions and fees apply.
DGLD Adds a Native Solana Representation
Gold Token SA, owned by MKS PAMP, announced DGLD’s native Solana launch on October 5. The token had already been available on Ethereum and Base; the new deployment adds a third network and access through SwissBorg.
DGLD uses Solana’s Token-2022 standard rather than a bridged or wrapped representation. The issuer describes a supply-by-chain structure in which tokens on each network are backed by dedicated, individually verifiable gold bars.
Gold Token SA says each DGLD represents direct co-ownership of one fine troy ounce of allocated PAMP gold vaulted in Switzerland.

The design aims to avoid bridge risk, but users still rely on the issuer’s gold allocation, legal documentation, custody, token controls and redemption process.
A Gold Claim Is Not a Price Peg
The issuer says physical delivery is available from one gram, subject to its delivery procedure, checks and fees. It also warns that DGLD’s market price can differ from spot gold and does not guarantee alignment.
Arrakis manages on-chain liquidity on Solana, but market making cannot remove custody, redemption, price and smart-contract risks. A token’s ability to trade at any time is also different from a guaranteed redemption at the underlying metal’s spot value.
That distinction is central to measuring tokenized gold’s use and turnover: a transferable claim may trade without being interchangeable with physical bullion on demand.
