Anthem Vault, Inc. Raises $3.2 Million Ahead of HayekGold Launch: Liquid, Spendable, Digital Gold

LAS VEGAS, June 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Anthem Vault, Inc. ("Anthem Vault" or "The Company"), a provider of retail gold and silver bullion and vaulting services, today announced that it has raised a combined $3.2 million — both a Founders' Seed Round of $1.6 million and matching Series A Financing of $1.6 million of its equity securities under Regulation D, Rule 506(c) from accredited investors in the pharmaceutical, healthcare, financial services, retail, datacenter, telecommunications, government and entertainment sectors - for the launch of HayekGold, a global open digital gold payment platform powered by the Bitcoin block chain.

Introduced on Memorial Day, HayekGold is a gold-backed digital currency with unparalleled stability and intrinsic value; each is backed by one gram of vaulted and insured gold bullion.

"Bitcoin was a trailblazer in the arena of global digital currency and HayekGold builds on that foundation," said Founder & CEO Anthem Hayek Blanchard. "Gold combined with a stable cryptocurrency forms a perfect union — a free, instant, secure and reliable payment system for goods and services anywhere in the world simply, swiftly and safely."

As a cryptographic receipt, it is simple to store hayeks ('a hayek' equals a gram of gold) in a digital wallet and spend them instantly in the global marketplace.

"Currency has outperformed gold as a means of exchange because of convenience," Blanchard added. "But HayekGold eliminates that advantage, allowing individuals worldwide to fundamentally rethink how they use money and protect their assets."

Additional Financings Planned

The Company, in accordance with its business plan, plans to raise additional funds in the future from accredited investors, investment banks, hedge funds and other financial services professionals and companies, in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws relevant to said future offering.

"The first round of financing focused on strategic investors and angels that understand the promise of our technology and respect the founders' innate, hands on experience in the precious metals business," CFO John C. Dong said. "We expect that a strong launch of HayekGold will be the proof of concept to showcase that expertise to a broader population of investors across technology, payments, precious metals and retail platforms."
