Summary
Hong Kong Gold Exchange (HKGX) is integrating Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) through its partners GoldZip and Midas Labs, according to the primary source report. The integration is designed to let HKGX's gold-backed XGZ token move securely across multiple blockchain networks beyond Ethereum, the report states.
Each XGZ token represents one gram of 99.99% fine gold, and holders can redeem physical gold for larger quantities. The report says the integration enhances liquidity and accessibility for digital gold assets, supports institutional adoption, and expands the token's usability across blockchain ecosystems. The move aligns with HKGX's broader effort to digitize gold trading and apply blockchain technology for institutional investors.
