Tradewind built a platform that integrates exchange technology with its VaultChain blockchain to digitize vaulted precious metals and facilitate trading, settlement and ownership. The company officially launched its platform in March 2018 and was formed in 2016. Tradewind’s VaultChain Gold offering removes structural and frictional limitations from the physical gold market and the platform is positioned to support additional applications such as provenance and supply chain management. The firm has raised capital since inception and reported total fundraising of $22.8 million. Tradewind is managed by a team with experience in electronic trading, market structure, gold investment management, market operations, cryptography and blockchain technology. The company plans to use new capital to expand the Tradewind platform and distribution network into Europe and Asia while extending platform functionality.
