Gold has always been the backbone of global value, but the economic upside of mining has largely been reserved for companies that own concessions, equipment, and the ability to navigate strict regulatory requirements. For everyone else, investment begins only after the metal has already been extracted. Traditional products like ETFs, bars, or tokenized gold track the price of gold, not the creation of it.
Ayni Gold reverses this approach. Instead of tokenizing gold that already exists, we tokenize the capacity used to extract it.
Each AYNI token represents a fixed unit of mining capacity (4 cm³ per hour), within a concession operated by Minerales SH in Peru. When you stake $AYNI inside the app, that token contributes to the daily production cycle. The system’s output is measured, processed through a transparent formula, and converted into PAXG, a gold-backed stablecoin.
This gives you a fundamentally different kind of exposure: active participation in the production of a real commodity. It’s a model positioned at the intersection of tokenized commodities, RWA-backed assets, and blockchain-enabled transparency.
The launch of the Ayni Gold app is what makes this model accessible. What once required industrial infrastructure and licenses can now be accessed through a simple browser interface available worldwide.
Ayni Gold App
The Ayni Gold app transforms a complex mining-based model into a clean, intuitive experience. Registration is straightforward, and you can purchase $AYNI directly inside the interface, including with card payments.
The dashboard is built to make mining data easy to read. Once your tokens are staked, you can see how your allocated capacity contributes to overall output and how much PAXG you are set to receive at the end of the quarter. The goal is simple: make real-world production as visible as any other on-chain metric.
The app focuses on clarity rather than complexity. It shows real extraction, real economics, and real gold-backed rewards. This level of transparency directly responds to the growing demand for understandable and user-friendly RWA protocols. With this launch, Ayni Gold turns mining participation into a digital experience that requires no prior knowledge of mining, geology, or financial engineering. The goal is accessibility.
Powered by Minerales SH: A Real, Licensed Mining Operation
Behind the interface and token mechanics sits a physical operation run by Minerales SH San Hilario S.C.R.L., a mining company incorporated in Peru under RUC No. 20606465255. The company operates under mining concession No. 070011405, officially registered with INGEMMET — Peru’s geological and mining authority.
A 2025 scoping study identified more than 10 tonnes of conceptual recoverable gold potential in the upper five meters of the concession. While not a formal resource statement, it helps define the expected output and long-term operational capacity. Minerales currently sustains extraction of up to 8,000 grams of gold per day, which serves as the foundation for the $AYNI reward model.
How the Reward Model Works
Ayni distributes rewards in PAXG, a gold-backed digital asset that combines the stability of physical gold with the flexibility of blockchain transfer. The model is easy to understand: if you help produce gold, you receive value in a gold-backed asset.
The reward calculation follows a transparent formula:
Reward (PAXG) = Gold Production (g) – Costs (USD) – Success Fee (g).
Gold production depends on the total staked capacity, daily operating hours, gold content per cubic meter, and Minerales’ extraction performance. Costs are tied to OPEX per cubic meter and operating hours, while the Success Fee depends on your access level and commitment period.
Rewards are delivered quarterly. Meanwhile, you can track daily performance inside the app, giving you real-time visibility into how your staked tokens interact with actual production.
PAXG is an ideal distribution asset because it avoids the friction of physical delivery and the uncertainty of synthetic representations. You also keep full liquidity and can store, trade, or deploy your gold-backed rewards anywhere on-chain.
$AYNI Token
The $AYNI token is more than a gateway to rewards. It anchors the economic structure of the Ayni Gold ecosystem and is designed with a long-term deflationary mechanism.
Fifteen percent of the Success Fee is used each quarter to buy back and burn $AYNI from the open market. This creates steady deflationary pressure directly linked to mining performance.
$AYNI operates on Ethereum under audited smart contracts reviewed by CertiK and PeckShield, ensuring security at the contract level.

With the launch of the app, token utility becomes concrete: you can stake $AYNI, track mining-linked output, and receive gold-backed quarterly distributions. All inside one interface.
A New Phase for Gold and Tokenization
The release of the Ayni app marks a meaningful moment for real-world assets. Instead of offering speculative exposure to gold, Ayni gives you a way to participate in the economics of extraction, something traditionally limited to industrial operators.
Gold has always been one of the world’s most reliable stores of value. With this launch, we go a step further: we make it possible for anyone to participate in the value creation behind it.
