what's uranium.io?
Uranium.io is a blockchain-based platform that tokenizes physical uranium, enabling fractional ownership and 24/7 trading of the commodity through smart contracts on the Tezos network, specifically its Etherlink Layer 2. Each token represents a claim on real yellowcake uranium stored in secure vaults by major provider Cameco, with on-chain verification ensuring transparency and auditability. The project bridges traditional energy markets with decentralized finance, allowing retail investors to access uranium exposure without high minimums or intermediaries. The tokenization process involves allocating physical uranium to digital tokens via decentralized ledgers, where smart contracts handle ownership transfers, trading, and potential redemption mechanisms. Built on Tezos for its energy-efficient proof-of-stake consensus and EVM compatibility via Etherlink, Uranium.io supports seamless integration with DeFi protocols. This setup democratizes investment in nuclear energy resources, aligning with growing demand for sustainable power sources. Security and compliance are prioritized through partnerships with regulated custodians like Archax, ensuring tokens are backed 1:1 by verifiable physical assets. Users can trade on exchanges like KuCoin, MEXC, and Gate.io, with real-time pricing feeds enhancing liquidity and market efficiency.
