Essence of Quality Custody

An ideal custody solution would offer:

Security, i.e. protection against...Privacy, i.e. protection through...Sovereignty, i.e. protection against...
  • attacks from outside (especially theft and extortion)
  • strong privacy laws
  • unavailability of custodian (especially during bankruptcy procedures or financial system meltdown)
  • attacks from inside the custodian (especially embezzlement)
  • minimal data collection
  • government intervention
  • force majeure (especially [nuclear] war and natural disasters)
  
  • owner's mistakes (especially key loss)
  

We have seen that no gold custody solution is fully able to meet all the requirements. There is always a trade-off between security and sovereignty.

However, with the help of blockchain technology our MISC™ vaults check all the boxes.
