Raredex offers an efficient and convenient means to own high quality industry grade rare earth and technology metals via blockchain tokenization. These metals tokens are backed by 1 kilogram of high-grade, industry-standard rare earth and technology metals, securely stored in a bonded storage facility in Germany. Metals under management are accompanied by comprehensive source-of-origin supply chain data, ensuring transparency and accountability. By holding Raredex tokens, you gain direct ownership rights to the underlying asset.

Community Token Launch

Pioneer, prospector, explorer, OG. We are so early! Just as those before us prospected for gold to build the modern world, prospectors of today are seeking access to rare metals to build the future! Mobile phones, batteries, renewable energy, nuclear power, defence, medical, and semiconductors are all reliant on rare earth and technology metals.

This non-investment token will power Rare'DEX' (Decentralized EXchange) enabling all participants to buy and sell without limitations. This pilot engages you with our community and will provide access to the rare earth metals simply by holding the community token.

The Benefits of Community Engagement
  • Early access to rare earth metal backed tokens, before the general public.
  • Direct ownership of rare earth and technology metals.
  • Participate in a community and interact with experts in the space.
  • An early seat at a table normally reserved for governments or elite investors.

Community Token Breakdown.

Metals
Plastics
Operations
33% Metals - We strongly believe in the future of rare earth and technology metals, by building a store of tradable liquid metals we will position ourselves at the head of the ecosystem with the most advanced service in the world.
33% Liquidity - To launch the DEX (Decentralized EXchange) we need to enable trading pairs. Purchases of the community token will kickstart this process with trading fees going right back into the community in the form of rare earth metal token rewards.
34% Kickstart - We will use the remainder of the funds to help us build out the roadmap and launch this project to the moon. We have the first build complete, join us for the last mile as we enable the future of technology.

Metals Tokenomics

We implement custom token logic, "tokenomics", to enable the specific use case of tradeable rare earth metal pairs. With each metal token being fully backed by physical assets, this is necessary to account for specifics such as storage costs. The tokenomics are designed to provide value through real asset ownership, diversified exposure, and community-driven participation.
  • 1 metal token = 1 kilogram of physical metal, fully backed with physical delivery options.
  • Fractional Ownership, previously only large OTC sales were possible.
  • Safe custody in a bonded storage facility in Germany.
  • Minimal storage fees are built into the contract, simplifying ownership.
  • A non backed community token allows early access and staking options.

DEX Launch
The launch of our DEX will enable instant trade settlement 24/7 anywhere in the world. It will complete this phase of the project and enable the success of our community.
Q4
Grow
Our future plans to grow are ambitious and include enabling multiple metal brokerages, on demand delivery, building our own strategic stockpile of metals and listing more critical commodities.

FAQs

General Questions

What are rare earths and technology metals, and why are they important?
These are Strategic Metals, the backbone of manufacturing in the 21st century. Their importance can never be overstated as they are critical to all nations' economic prosperity and military capabilities.
What metals can I purchase on Raredex.io?
We offer the technology metals and rare earths that are most relevant:
  • Technology metals: Gallium, Germanium, Rhenium and Indium
  • Rare Earth Metals: Dysprosium, Neodymium, Praseodymium and Terbium.
Why should I consider purchasing tokenized rare earths and technology metals instead of traditional assets like gold or stocks?
Strategic Metals have consistently been outperforming precious metals and all major stock indexes. The market is purely supply and demand driven.
Why should I consider purchasing tokenized rare earths and technology metals tokens instead of other tokens?
Raredex metal tokens are asset backed and backed by commodities that are fast replacing oil and gas in importance globally.

Purchase Process

Is there a minimum outlay required?
No.
How does Raredex ensure the authenticity and quality of the metals?
Raredex purchase directly from Europe's most reputable supplier of strategic metals. Our inventory is in the chain of custody, REACH certified, and in original packaging from producers with batch numbers.
Can I hold my purchases in physical form, or is it purely digital?
It is both, as you have your digital Raredex token which is backed by the metal(s) in our bonded storage facility in Germany.

Market Insights

What drives the demand for rare earths and technology metals?
All modern technology, electric cars, wind turbines, solar, space exploration, aviation, medical devices, nuclear power, computer chips, semiconductors.
How does geopolitical tension impact the supply and pricing of rare earths and technology metals?
The political landscape increasingly plays a role as China is the dominant market leader in the industry. At time of writing China has an outright ban on Gallium and Germanium to the US and are restricting the export of all rare earths as well.

Storage and Security

Where are the rare earths and technology metals stored?
They are stored in a bonded storage facility, in Germany.
What measures does Raredex take to secure my metals?
Raredex tokens are 100% assay (metal) backed and stored in a bonded storage facility in Germany.

Trading and Liquidity

Are there any fees or taxes involved when buying or selling Raredex tokens?
Our storage facility is a tax and duty-free zone so no taxes on the purchase or sale of the metals. There is a bid/ask spread on the purchase and sale just like precious metals.

Risks and Challenges

What are the risks of purchasing rare earths and technology metals?
The demand for strategic metals is increasing and there are even predictions there will soon not be enough to supply the energy transition, however all purchases come with risk. The primary risk is substitution where a new and better technology could replace an existing one. Thankfully, all of our metals have multiple applications which mitigates the risk in that regard.

Sustainability

Can rare earths and technology metals be considered sustainable?
Yes, 100%; in fact one could almost consider rare earths as waste recycling. The reason is that rich rare earth seams do not occur naturally in the earth's crust and are surfaced as a byproduct of mining another raw material. Until we found utility for them, they were considered waste. It is estimated there are 500,000 abandoned coal mines in North America alone with mine “tailings” that can now be harvested and utilised.
