Blue Gold Completes Beta Platform, Advances U.S. Gold-Based Financial Services Strategy

(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Company is progressing legal and regulatory review and evaluating U.S. banking, custody and settlement relationships to support commercialization

NEW YORK, Oct. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Blue Gold Limited (Nasdaq: BGL/BGLWW) ("Blue Gold" or the“Company”), a gold mining company with the infrastructure to deliver gold from mine-to-wallet, today announced the completion of a beta version of its digital asset platform as it advances plans to establish a U.S.-focused financial services business built around physical gold.

“We see an opportunity to build financial infrastructure around gold rather than treating it solely as a commodity that is mined and sold,” said Kevin Clark, Executive Chairman of Blue Gold.“Our objective is to support new ways for customers to hold, transfer and use gold within the financial system.”

Technology Foundation for Gold-Based Financial Services

Over the past 12 months, Blue Gold has developed the platform to enable physical gold to be issued, held and transferred digitally, with digital units backed by allocated physical gold held in custody.

The platform is designed to link physical gold inventory with digital ownership records and support reconciliation between underlying gold reserves and digital units in circulation. Blue Gold believes this structure can make physical gold more accessible for ownership, transfer and settlement.

“Over the past year, we have built significant backend and global infrastructure to support the issuance, custody and transfer of gold in digital form,” said Nathan Dionne, Chief Technology Officer of Blue Gold.“With that foundation in place, we are now prepared to take the platform to the next level as we move toward commercialization.”

Path to Commercialization

Blue Gold is assessing the applicable U.S. legal and regulatory framework while evaluating potential custody and settlement relationships to determine how products and services may be offered, which functions the Company may perform directly or through regulated third parties, and the operating structure and sequencing of the planned product rollout. In parallel, the Company is working to select a U.S. banking partner to power the next generation of the platform.
