AURUS is a tokenized-precious-metals and real-world-asset Web3 platform that enables partnered gold providers and vaults to tokenize physical bullion on-chain. AURUS's Twitter Score is 8.6 out of 1000 as of July 2026, ranking #116,374 among 531,432 tracked accounts.
AURUS was founded by Stefan Gergely and Dan Cearnau and has operated since 2017. The platform issues three tokens, tGOLD (tXAU), tSILVER (tXAG), and tPLATINUM (tXPT), each backed 1:1 by one gram of the corresponding metal held in audited vaults accredited by the LBMA and LPPM. Crucially, the underlying metal reserves are held independently of Aurus Technologies and the Aurus Foundation, meaning the platform supplies the tokenization infrastructure rather than owning the metals themselves.
AURUS currently supports Ethereum and Polygon, with a planned $AURUS governance token and an expanded tGOLD offering being built on Base. The project is backed by Silver Rock Group Limited and maintains affiliations with Chainlink, SEMPSA JP, and the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre, reflecting a network of accredited metal suppliers and institutional commodity partners. AURUS has published 3,151 posts on the platform and has been mentioned by 44 accounts a total of 174 times.
