Investable Bitcoin Offering Now Available to Goldmoney Clients

TORONTO, Nov. 15, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Goldmoney Inc. (TSX:XAU) (?Goldmoney?), a precious metal financial service and technology company, today announced Bitcoin is now available to all Full Verified Goldmoney Holding Owners as a secure and fully-reserved offline investable asset following a successful beta release. 

Goldmoney clients now have the ability to purchase Anti-Money Laundering (?AML?)-compliant ?cold storage' Bitcoin directly from the Company, and sell their Bitcoin holdings back to Goldmoney in the same way they buy or sell precious metals and fiat currencies.

Clients can fund Holdings via bank wire, credit card, Bitcoin, WeChat Pay, Alipay, and many other online and alternative payment methods to buy cold storage Bitcoin with nine currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, CHF, JPY, NZD, HKD, AUD), and receive monthly storage credits for active buying and selling.

Client Bitcoin is stored in Goldmoney's password-protected cold storage hardware wallet for a 0.085% monthly fee, and is therefore bought and sold offline and unable to be used in hot wallets or blockchain-based third-party transfers. This feature provides unmatched security in adherence with Goldmoney's core principles and standards.

Goldmoney is the world's first publicly traded and regulated financial service to offer insurable, auditable, and AML-compliant exposure to cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrency offerings currently include Bitcoin; additional leading digital assets will be added over time.
