About WinstantGold

The Democratic Republic of Congo is one of the richest countries on Earth, with $24 trillion in mineral resources, vast tropical forests, and the majority of Africa’s freshwater reserves. Yet paradoxically, 75% of its people live in poverty.

The AXIS Program, led by the Fonds Social de la République Démocratique du Congo (FSRDC) in partnership with Phoenix Capital BV and Winstant Ltd, was created to change this reality.

WinstantGold is the official digital platform of AXIS, designed to transform Congo’s sovereign natural wealth into inclusive, sustainable finance.

Through blockchain innovation, WinstantGold tokenizes ethical artisanal gold and other community resources, ensuring that value flows directly back to the people, while creating a stable, secure, and globally tradable asset.

What is SGRT?

The Sovereign Gold Reserve Token (SGRT) is a decentralized digital monetary instrument, issued under presidential authority, and regulated by the Central Bank of Congo.

Backed by Gold
Each SGRT represents 1 gram of future gold, guaranteed by the Congolese State, over-collateralized with 4 grams of sovereign reserves.

Stable & Secure
Pegged to the global price of gold, audited by independent firms, supervised by the Central Bank of Congo.

Ethical & Transparent
Linked to the GoldConnect initiative, which engages 300+ artisanal cooperatives under strict ethical and environmental standards.

Sustainability Bonus
Every SGRT includes a Forest Carbon Reserve Token (FCRT), financing reforestation and biodiversity protection.
