This thread was made prior to the new rule, and yes this entire thread is littered with fake/shill accounts by the team themselves. If a thread has no users interacting with it, it does not yield to a "good public vision" therefore, puppets didn't and will not go away with the new rule, due to the effects of "having a community."
Every aspect of this project yields itself to be a scam, from every written piece of content to how it's marketed and structured. I personally will not spend my time going point-by-point into every red-flag this project throws, despite the previous shill explaining what it means
A scam in crypto does not necessarily have to have an ICO, IEO or have an initial backing. Scam coins exists in all shapes, forms and aspects, ERC-20 tokens by the factor of having any value or worth, can lead into a scam project.
Documents, notarized docs can be forged, faked and manipulated if you have the proper contacts and resources available. By this thread even being on Bitcointalk also lends itself to target the average investor and user here, which is a coincidence when dealing with any significant amount of gold, which would be more attractive outside of the conventional crypto grounds.
I led you and others into a bit of information here, the rest will be uncovered with time and with some diligent efforts. Coinciding with every premise this project is founded on, I'll restate 9.99~/10 "commodity backed project" have been scams. The sheer odds, combined with the above statements provided lead to a conclusion, that, this is a scam.
If you want to buy gold, go buy gold on Forex or some commodity broker. If you're trying to own gold, through a shady fucking scheme, on Bitcointalk, through an ERC-20 token, you're better off playing a slot machine or burning your money for heating your home.
FYI: If you didn't bump this thread to top position in ANNs, you would of gone unnoticed.

Dear tk808,
Thank you everyone for your comments.
If you found any fake accounts in this thread, please specify which one.
We totally agree. Any document can be falsified. However, the documents proving that the smart contract passed the audit, that the gold was placed in the vault, that there is insurance protection, etc. were all issued by respective companies. You can verify this by contacting those companies and asking them if they have indeed issued these papers. If they say they didn't, then you can conclude that the project is indeed a fraud and that we have produced and published fake documents.

True, any project even if it doesn't conduct an ICO can turn out to be a scam. At this point, our team has already invested over $700k of our own money, though only a $350k worth of tokens were issued. The team currently controls most of the tokens. All tokens are 100% backed with gold. If you know of any other project that have purchased physical gold using their teams' own money (not and ICO scam) and placed it in a vault only to disappear with it afterwards, then tell us. If you can't name such a project, then please don't compare us to projects whose business model has nothing to do with ours.
We'll appreciate it if you keep following up on our updates in case you find any signs of a scam, please do share your concerns.
Thank you!
Regards,
Support Team @ Digital Gold
